STRIKE ENDS IN SYDNEY
(Rec. 7 p.m.) SYDNEY, March 3. As the result of the direction of Mr J. Healy, general secretary of the Waterside Workers’ Federation, watersidets reported to work at first calls at Sydney and Townswille this morning. * The Sydney representative of the Stevedoring Industry Board <Mr J. D. McKay) left the way open for a resumption when he declared that, as the men had been ordered by their union to resume work in accordance with the terms of their award, all suspensions in the present dispdte had been lifted. He asked that the men return to the ships they walked off on Thursday and Friday and, if the ships had sailed, to report at the pick-up centre.
Under an order granted by Mr Justice Kirby in the Arbitration Court, if the men did not resume work to-day, each member of the union was immediately placed in the contempt ol Court and was subject to a maximum penalty of £5O.
