SERVICES IMPROVE IN ALL
DIRECTIONS
LONDON TUBES AGAIN WORKING.
(United Press .Association.—Copyright.) (Australiaa-New Zealand Cable Assn.) (Received 7th May, 2.15 p.m.) LONDON, 6th May. Blue summer skies characterised the weather on the third morning of the strike, which found vast crowds going to business in London in a gay mood. Vehicles wero as numerous as ever, but traffic jams were fewer. This was partly due to drivers following the back streets, hitherto unexplored. The emergency services are rapidly improving in all directions. ■ A great increase is reported of passenger trains on main and local lines. The trunk lines are now running 300 to 400 daily. The London tubes are reopening to-day. The London taximen decided to join the strike at midnight yesterday, but hundreds were on the streets this morning.
