EMPLOYERS TAKE ACTION.
(Australian & N.Z. Cable Assn.)
LONDON, April 26.
“The Times’s” Paris correspondent state: —Following upon demonstrations against wage reductions, including sectional strikes, in which men paraded the workshops singing the “Internationale,” the Citreon management locked out 10,000 men in various departments, simultaneously announcing that they could resume on April 28, unless fresh disturbances necessitated a general lockout of 30,000 employees. The company subsequently issued a statement that it would be impossible to continue if Communist workmen wilfully provoked disorders, pointing out that the present wages are not only the company’s highest, but are highei- than the Average Parisian rates.
