TEACHERS TO WORK
Irish Factories Still Out (N.Z.P.A.-Reuter—Copyright) DUBLIN, February 23. Three thousand teachers accepted a new pay offer and ended a strike yesterday which closed all the senior schools in the Irish Republic for more than three weeks.
They accepted the wage increase with a ballot majority and schools are to reopen on Monday. But there is still no end in sight for another nationwide strike which has paralysed 200 factories for more than two weeks and is costing the country nearly £lm a day in lost exports. Two of the biggest unions involved in a dispute over the pay of 3000 factory maintenance workers today rejected a new offer and voted to continue the strike.
