RESTRICTIONS LIFTED
SYDNEY'S LIGHTS GO OH ALL INDUSTRIES EXPECTED TO BE WORKING BY MONDAY j —.—^ SYDNEY, October 19. All restrictions on the use of elec- " tricity in Sydney have been lifted. Shops, offices, and private homes may now use lights and electrical appliances as they did before rationing was imposed.. . Coal went to Bunnerong to-day for ' the first time in nine d'ays, but not all Sydney industries were able to resume to-day because employers had no opportunity of advising employees to report, but where sufficient labour was available production was recommenced. Thousands of employees who had been laid off during the strike arrived' for work, but thousands of others' didi not turn up. All workers displaced by the rationing are expected to be back at work by Monday. There are now that rationing may soon have to be reintroduced, this time to include gas restrictions in order that the badly-depleted coal stocks may be up before the miners take their two weeks' Christmas holidays.
