ing An executive emergency resolttion, expressing fraternal support for the NUS and praising the Executive for giving 100 guineas to the Strike Fund, wis carried at the anmal conference of ASSET at Scarborough on Sunday, Ian Mikardo, who is of course a member of the Labour Party's National Exec- . utive, told the conference that he thought the Prime Minister's television broadcast in the early days of the Seamens Strike was "grossly mistaken and did a great deal to harden feeling and delay a possible settlement." "I reeled with disgust, he said, when I read that an official party spokesman, speaking from the platform of a conference, described the seamen, who during the war had casualties suffered by one third of their number, as quislings. This sort of thing adds nothing to the decency and dignity of public life." He added that it was wrong to talk about planning a wages sector in an other— wise unplanned economy. ADVERTISEMENT
