So quickly was it done on the part ot the lion , that the audience would have thought

The Operative Bakers Anfj The National A...
THE OPERATIVE BAKERS ANfJ THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF UNWED TRADES . ...
A meeting convened by the Green Man Society of Bakers , was' bold on Saturday evening , April the 24 th , at the Green Man TavemrGreeu-street , Grosvenor-square . A deputation consisting of'Mr G . Rea « and Mr Dyerson attended from 1 the Central Coraraitteeof theOperative Bakers' Society . Mr Stirling was called to the chair , and introduced MriiKORos Reap , the general secretary of tbe Operative Bakers' Society , who said it was generally admitted that the operative bakers laboured too much . Their friend Mr Oastler , at the Ci own and Anchor the other night , hud produced high medical testimony which demonstrated that to work a man more than ten hours a day murdered biro , and the
BApcucute vyciumv uuaue true , as very few of them survived the age of forty years . ( Hear , hear . ) The journeyman baker had not the tims for refreshment or sleep accorded to other operatives . They often Heard of American and black slavery , but he utterly denied such [ slavery was equal to the white slavery endured by the journeymen bakers . ( Loud cheers . ) Some twenty years ago it was deemed a disgrace for the baker to be seen in the street with his basket of bread after two o ' clock in the day , and about . thesame period masters sold their bread a halfpenny a loaf cheaper to those who came to the shop lor it , which showed that the slavery of bakers had not antiquity to plead in its favour ; but now aman was dragged with his basket « h V > in Ui .,. 1 .

a , some or per , and was frequently to be seen in the streets as late as seven o ' clock iu the evening , after which be bad to stand at the kneading trough until two o ' clock tbe next morning . This excess of labour was caused by competition , labour being used instead of capital , two men and a boy doing as much work as the fair trader had done by nine men ; thus increasing the surplus labour in the market ; and consequently reducing wages , ( Hear , hear . ) Twelve hours , with an allowance of time for meals taken therefrom , was amply sufficient . Twelve hours had been adopted in Scotland , and parts of England , and why should it not do equally well in'this metropolis ? ( loud cheers , ) and of course , as they gave employment to additional hands ia their own trade , so would they increase the trade of the shoemaker , the tailor and the
hatter , as the bakers would have increased means ot purchasing and more time for recreation , and consequently require more of the articles manufactured by the trades he had mentioned . ( Much applause . ) They had gained an able auxiliary in L'ird Robert Grosvenor . True , his lordship differed ffith some ot them , as to the propriety of immediately proceeding to Parliament with a bill to effect their object ; and perhaps , as the Parliament would so soon be dissolved , it might not be good policy at the present time , but Lord Robert Grosvenor was very active in their behalf . He bad volunteered to ' go round with him ( Mr Read ) to the clergy and other influential parties , to invoke their aid , and amongst others , to the Lord Bishop of London , whom he had good reason to believe would shortly preside at a public meeting in the Hanover-square rooms in their behalf . ( Loud cheers . )
Mr Blackmoke rose and said , Lord Robert GrosvenorYwas a great name , but he denied that the operative bakers , isolated from any other trades , could effect any permanent good for themselves without political power . Indeed , he would much like the whole body of operatives to possess the franchise , and then they could help themselves . ( Hear , hear . ) He had been looked on as an enomy to liberty , but ha denied th * any one was more favourable to liberty , or had struggled harder for it than be bad done , ( hear , hear , ) but was the system recommended by the Operative Bakers' Society adopted , and aa additional halfpenny per loaf placed on bread , as the consequence , away would run the public to the League , and the unfair competitor , and
down would go the fair trader . ( No , no . ) In hdmburgh , where thesystsm had been adopted ,, it was already giving way , and some of the men who stood out , had sacrificed two shillings per week . ( No , no . ) He contended that the wages of bakers , their employment being regular , and no lost time , were better than those of other mechanics . ( Loud shouts of No , no . ) Why , they had , in addition tothe money , wages , bread , flour , and lodging . For his part , he would prefer fourteen hours to twelve . ( Hisses and cries of " Thoy would not give us less than sixteen , did we asKfor fourteen . ) Well , he thought by asking for twelve hours , they were only assisting the League and other unfair traders . He contended that the bakers could effect nothing by themselves ; other
trades had discovered the weakness of isolation , and had united themselves with the National Association of United Trades , and be should like their trade to follow the example : ( Cheers . ) Scotland had beeia . alluded to , but he would remind them that Scotland was very different to London ; in Scotland there were certain circumstances that bound the men together , but in London they had to contend against Germans ! Irishmen ami Scotchmen . Hence he thought it better that they should at once take up and consider the question of joining the National Association of United Trades , than to spend their time and money in pursuit of that which never could be realised . \ Cheers , ) Mr Read said he fully agreed with Mr Blackmore , in his desire that the working classes should possess
the franchise , but as they did not , unfortunately , passess that important right , some steps must be taken for improving their condition , and he thought one of the best was that of shortening the hours of labour . ( Cheers . ) Bakers had previously been subjected to Acts of Parliament , and hence . he did think they would have a better chance of obtaining one now than any other body of mechanics . Hocontended that even labour was the great disease ol society . ( Cheers . ) Their friends , Mr Wakley and Lord Robert Grosvenor , had both admitted that , ultimately , there must be an Act of Parliament for the regulation of all labour . ( Cheers . ) He therefore hoped the bakers would keep up a vigorous , agitation , in order that they might be prepared for the " good time coming . " . . 1
. Mr BucKMOns re-stated his objections , reminding thera of their audition to their wages , in the shape of lodging , < fcc ., and concluded by again urging the propriety of taking up the question , the . "National Association of United Trades . " . , Mr R « ad said , asregarded the lodging spoken of by Mr Blackmore , the sooner it was got rid of the sooner would the comfort , health , and morality of thejourneyman baker be promoted . ( Cheers . ) " . The CHAinuAjf said he was rather inclined to the opinions of Mr Blackmore , so far as their uniting with the National Association was concerned , aud he advised his brethren to read the Northern Star , as , by so doing , they would become better acquainted with trades ' matters generally .
Mr Dreasox said he thought , at the present time , it would be useless , to go to Parliament , because a dissolution was near at hand ; but ho thought the b ikers should thoroughly organize themselves , and then , ina body , join the National Association . ( Loud cheers . ) Mr Blacimquk agaiarose , and said the National Association ' s mode of operation was first to procure a thorough organisation of any particular trade , and then connect that . trade . nith itself , and should any portion of its members be oppressed , they opened a shop , ' and gave employment to the wronged members . ( Loud cheers . ) . Mr Read said doubtless the National Assooiatien of United Trades was a grand and comprehensive scheme , but he did not think the meansemployed by it applicable to bakers at the present time . National
. Mr Blackmore could not see why the Association was not as competent to serve them as it was stockingers , knitters , and other poor trades . He would therefore move-That the secretary couvey to the central committee tbe desire of this meeting that they should consider the propriety of joining the National Association of United Trade ? . ' , Mr Read said the question had already been before the committee , and the committee had decided that they had better proceed with their present agitation . After a few words from 'Mr Dyerson and the Chairman , Mr Blackmorh said he would not press his motion on this occasion . The room was then cleared " of strangers , and the following resolution was submitted and carried unanimously : — That the Green Man Society ' of Bakers be formed into a district of the Operative Bakers' Society ,
The public having been again admitted , the following . ' gentlemen were elected a committee—Messrs H . Stirling , Filling , Shepherd , Joiner , J . Clowes , Watts , and Bennett . Mr J . Clowes was appointed treasurer , and Mr Shepherd secretary . A vote of thanks was given to thc Chairman , and the meeting was dissolved . -
London Carvers And Cuairmakers. A Public...
LONDON CARVERS AND CUAIRMAKERS . A public meeting , convened by this body , was held at the Bricklayers' Arms Tavern , John-street , Curtain-road , Shoreditch . on Tuesday evening , Aprilthe 27 th , to consider the best means of organising tho trade and improving the social condition of its members . Messrs Robson and Green attended as a deputation from the central committee of the National Asssciation of United Trades , Mr Nnwrwv was unanimously called to the chair and said they must be aware from the placards convening the meeting of the important object in view . ( Hear , hear . ) It unfortunately happened , that the
working classes sometimes forgot their most important social duty , that of upholding and supporting the trade by which they lived . It was with a view to rally them , 'to arouse them from their apathy and to awaken them to a sense of their . duty as men and brother tradesmen , that this meeting was held , and unless tliey responded to the call , and united , organised and combined , they would not be enabled to uphold even theirpresent position , { Hear , hear . ) Whenever the working classes effected anything it was by union and co-operation . He trusted , therefore , that their good sense would induce them to combine , and persevere until they bad . securely ele-Yateu \ thp social position of their order . ( Cheoia . )
: Mr Moodtmoved the folWing-resolution : •—That thit meeting views with deep regret the apathy and indiftrence in which nwriT members of our trade have long slept , and earnestly resolves to use its bait energies to arouse them to a sense of their folly . in thus neglecting to assist in the promotion of their dearest Interest *— . the rights of labour . He said the resolution justly spoke of their apathy and indifference , and really a stranger . xomisg amongst them , and witnessing it , would suppose that they were surrounded by , every luxury , that they could live and enjoy- themselves , and go out on pleasure excursions at their will , and that masters were conMnually running after them , crying «; Pray . come andwork for me . " But let no one deceive himself ;
the carvers and cbairmakers could not bask in the sunshine of such a Paradise . ( Cheers . ) He contended that trade societies could not stand singlehanded , this was proved in the case of the bookbinders . ( Hear , hear . ) He had given their society up as hopeless , but now they had that mighty bulwark the National Association of United trades » fall back on , his hopes were revived , and helooked with delight on tb . it great lever which must ultimately raise the masses to their true social position in so * oiety . ( Loud cheers . ) They did not want to strike for an advance of wages ; all they required at the present moment was to prevent reduction—( hear , hoar ) —and he maintained that on efficient organisation amongst themselves , backed by the National
Association of United Trades ,, would be ' a sufficient guarantee for the maintenance of that object . ( Cheers . ) For his part he had resolved to do one man a duty in upholding the Association , and he looked forward in full confidence to the aid of his brethren . ( Much applause . ) Mr Mack seconded the resolution . Mr Gbbbh said indifference and apathy was at all times tto be regretted , but it rejoiced him much to see so many present to consider tho best means of promoting the interests not only of the unionbts , but thabof the non-unionists , also . The interests of unionists and non-unionists were identical , they each
lived , or rather existed by their labour . ( Hear , hear . ) Well , then , let all pull together , reason together , and in six months their whole trade would understand and duly appreciate the , blessings of cooperation , and their present meeting-room be much too small for them . . He was happy to inform them that the National Association bad added one hundred trades , or sections of traces , to its list within the last quarter , and that at ti © present time it gave employment to eighty men , including shoemakers , tinplate workers , nail-makers , glovers , stockingers , & c ., dzc . He had much pleasure in supporting the resolution . ( Loud cheers . ) ¦ .- ' '" .
Mr Howard said he was a carver , and did not like the idea of other trades interfering with his trade . What could they know about it ? He thought from the bearing of Mr Green ' s speech that he took them to be very poor ; now , he could assure him that they were not so . The resolution was then put , and carried unanimously . Mr Nichoiso . v said lie had a resolution placed in his hands in which he perfectly concurred , but as he and they wisbed'to hear Mr Robson , he would content himself by simply moving it : — " That this meeting relying with unbounded confidence on the purity , strength and wisdom of the National Trades' Association , pure in its aim and intentions , strong in its resources , and wise in its government , do most
earnestly impress upon all connected w ith the trade of carvers and cbairmakers , the necessity of organising themselves , and uniting with that body . " Mr RoBSOttrose much , applauded to second the resolution , and said he , a poor journeyman shoemaker , stood there to ask them to unite together for one common object , and he would just ask his friend Howard , if the managers ef the benefit societies refused men , because they happened to work at different trades ?—( Hear , hear , )—or , because , . they got different prices for their labour ? -H [ Hear , hear ;)—or , did he know any trade that , w hen its own funds were exhausted in strikes , did not appeal to other trades ? ( Hear , hear . ) Well , but the National Association thought it better to have small continuous payments ,
and so have funds in advance , than to drive it off unfrp-the time of need came upon thera . ( Cheers . ) vyis it not a good thing to say , we have some forty oif fifty thousand men at our backs to support us ? ( Hear , hear . ) PPhat matters whether they be all carvers and cbairmakers or not ? they are ' all men , and all lived by their labour , and consequently had one common interest , and surely they ought all to unite in support of that common bond of brotherhood . ( Loud cheers , ) Let not his friend Howard ; start ; the National Association had women in union with them , ay , and women would sit at the coming conference at Birmingham with them . Was not that a novelty ? But a woman laboured , ' aad ought not her labourto . be protected ? ( Loud cheers . ) If
women labour was ' not protected , our wages would soon be reduced to their level . ( Great applause . ) He did not think his friend Green had said anything offensive . He had only inferred that they did not get so much as they ought for their labour , in which be perfectly agreed with him . ( Hear ,- hear . ) Now , ( said Mr Robson ) let us see what is the cause of our present position ? First , a redundancy of labour in tue market , caused by men working tooinany hours per day ^ secondly , a superfluity of apprentices over and above the quantity of men employed- ( Cheers ) He ventured to affirm that there were more carvers and cbairmakers than could find work . ' ( Hear , hear ) Tho whole gist of the 'fen Hours'Bill was that , by reducing the number of hours of labour , it
absorbed tbe supply ' and consequently raised the value of labour . ( Loud cheers . ) The engineers at the present time were most stupidly working overtime ; but were they to act in accordance with the dictates of common sense , they would work but eight hours per day , and obtain as much wages as though they worked sixteen . ( Loud cheers . ) He had mentioned apprentices ; and where there was a redundancy of them , they were tound to be the very b ? ne and curse of the trade . ( Much applause . ) He would much like to hear anything his friend Howard might have to say , therefore he would now sit down to give him the opportunity , reserving to himself the right of saying a word or two in reply . '' ( Load cheers . ) Mr Howakd said he had simply come up with
others , to bear the rules asd rudiments of the association set forth , but he still thought that ' carvers 1 could not understand shoemakihg , nor vice versa . He 1 agreed generally with what the eloquent de puty had I advanced , and when he saw a union fairly established 1 he was ready to join it . Mr Robson said , the only point for him to reply to a was that bootmakers could not understand carving g and chairmaking . Now , in the event of a threatened i strike , the course the National Association took was a to act as mediators , and men not directly interested id in the trade concerned were the best for such a pur-. rpose . Thousands and thousands had heretofore beenm thrown away on strikes , not because the trades were re ignorant of the principles , he had been propounding , g , but because they had waited for the cash until thehe moment it was required , before they attempted tote raisa it . Mr Robson here illustrated the working of of
the National Association , by a strike just gained by by the bootmakers of Oxford , and a similar oho by thehe bleachers of Bradford . Backed by the moral po wecrec of 50 , 000 men , they had achieved a glorious triumpb , pb , at once proving the prowess of the National As & ocia ^ ia ^ tion of United Trades . ( Immense applause . ) Mr Hatter cordially agreed with what had beeneerj said by Mr Robson . / Mr Babnett hoped that a tract or prospectus o £ o £ the principles of the National Association would be be widely distributed for the information of the tradesdet in that district . ¦ . ; @ The resolution was then unanimously adopted . Mr Nicholson rose and submitted the following :- ; :- . That a vote of thanks are eminently due andare here . ere .. hy given , to T . S .
