WORK AND WAGES.
MIXERS’ STRIKE PAY. j [By Electric Telegraph—Copyright] [United Press Association.] Sydney, April 23. The first distribution of strike pay to the Southern miners was 8s for each man and 2s for each child ,which is at the rate of Is 6d per week per head during the currency of the strike. The smallness of the vote is attributed to the fact that many unions have not yet responded to the appeal for funds. STRIKE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS RESUMPTION. (Received 9.35 a.m.) Brussels, April 23. The general strike committee recommends the resumption of work. STRIKE THREATENED IN SCOTLAND. (Received 10.20 a.m.) London, April 23.
The trade unions in Scotland threaten to strike owing to the employers refusing to increase wages.
GENERAL STRIKE IMPROBABLE. (Received 9..‘15 a.m.) Sydney, April 24. The only information obtainable regarding the mining conference is that there is no immediate need to contemplate the possibility of a general strike. Nothing has happened to aggravate the possibilities of a further industrial upheaval.
