END IN SIGHT
MANY AT WORK
SINGLE MEN MEET
Although no official announcement has yet been made, it is apparent that the relief workers' strike is over. The chairman of the Strike Committee (Mr. A. Fraser) has,relinquished his position.
"What is the use of striking when about nine-tenths of the men have returned to work?" remarked one of the strikers to-day.
A meeting of single men was. held at the Trades Hall this morning, but the attendance was noticeably smaller than the attendances at meetings held earlier in the week. i
During the last few days there has been a steady increase of married men" returning to work, about1 300 more reporting for work each day. To-day is mainly a. single men's day on relief works in , Wellington, and 928 men reported for work out of 1232. Approximately 230 married men were also working. . ■■ • .•
