CRANE DRIVERS’STRIKE
MEN RATIFY AGREEMENT TERMS ONLY TEMPORARY. jv Telegraph.—Press Assn.—CopyrightNEWCASTLE, December 3. A. mass meeting of the crane-driv-ers ratified the terms of settlement agreed upon at the conference with the Minister. The terms indicate that both sides made concessions in order to bring about peace. The men will share alike a rate of wages which is a reduction on the present award rates. Shifts will be arranged so as to give all an equal amount of work. When, however, the “no overtime” strike is settled the agreement becomes inoperative, and the crane-drivers return to the conditions existing before the strike.
