LONDON BUS STRIKE
Men Return to Work Official Wireless. Rugby. Jan. 23. The partial strike of the London General Omnibus Company’s drivers and conductors has ended, the men resuming work at niidnight. The strike began on Saturday morning and Involved about 12,000 of the company’s 20,000 men engaged in this work. It was called as a protest against the new agreed work schedules. The men’s • union repudiated the strike as a breach of agreement and because it ignored the conciliatory machinery. The company declared that the strike was a menace to collective bargaining and required the men to return to work at once. As a result of the announcement of the attitude of the union and of the company, about 25 per- cent, of the rtrikers resumed work this morning, and some hundreds of those still out returned to duty during the day. The remainder will report to-night.
