NO STRIKE OR LOCK OUT
BRITISH COTTON TRADE (United P.A. —By Telegraph — Copyright) (Australian P.A.—United Service) LONDON, Tuesday. As a result of ballots in the cotton trade, there will be no strike or lockout in connection with the employers’ action in reducing wages. One ballot was taken among the members of the Federation of Master Cotton Spinners’ Association on the question of enforcing a 12J per cent, reduction in wages by a lock-out if necessary. The result failed to yield the requisite majority of 80 per cent, of the votes, and the federation decided to take no further action. There is very keen satisfaction among the 500,000 operatives in Lancashire.
