Such a conception of industry in relation to the public interests obscures the wider vision which sees that the needs of the twentieth century call for a conscious planning and regulation of the national economic life as an essential part of an international economic policy, based upon a recognition of the increasing interdependence of nations and the necessity of replacing wasteful competition and selfish antagonism in commercial relations by the greatest measure of co-operation and agreement. By no other means can the peoples of the different countries benefit from the enormous powers of wealth production which exist to-day, the grave problem of unemployment be solved, and peace and amity between nations secured. For, as the World Economic Conference declared in 1927—* economic con- flicts and divergence of economic interest are perhaps the most serious and the most permanent of all the dangers which are likely to threaten the peace of the world. No machinery for the settlement of international disputes can be relied upon to maintain peace if the economic policies of the world so develop as to create not only deep divergences of economic interest between different masses of the world’s population, but a sense of intolerable injury and injustice.” It is in that spirit the organised workers in the iron and steel industry submit their statement and proposals fer examination bv the British public.
