ANOTHER TANGLE
EXTENSIVE STRIKES
PRINTING OF NOTES STOPPED,
(Received 11th August, 12.30 p.m.)
BERLIN, 10th August. A strike of printers has begun, resulting in the stoppage of publication of all the Berlin newspapers except those controlled by the Socialists and Communists. The bank-note printers have also ceased work. The strike is the outcome of the men's refusal to accept the Labour Ministry's award of a wage of 6,750,000 marks a, week, ;It is feared that the strike will spread to all the municipal service, and the factories. The underground iailwaymen have struck owing to the dismissal of three workmen, and traffic is at a complete standstill.
A later message says the strike movement is spreading rapidly, and the Government is gravely concerned. No trains left Berlin to-day.
