The increase in the miners’ working was to-day 8,439, making the total at work 357,000, but there is the disquieting fact that South Wales, Northumberland and Scotland, by heavy majorities, have rejected the peace terms. Even so, it is believed that a general resumption of work will not be delayed seriously. It is hinted that the Miners’ Federation executive will announce to-morrow that as the dissentient vote does not constitute a two-thirds majority, the executive’s recommendation for acceptance cannot be considered as rejected. Therefore, the history of 1921 wil! repeat Itself, and the strike will he called off.
A conference of Nottingham mine owners decided to make substantial additions next month to the wages of the higher paid men, which will be raised to 15s lOd per day.
