STOCKHOLM, May 29.
By a majority of 11 votes, the Second Chamber has passed an Industrial Peace Bill, abolishing the right to strike, under heavy penalties, and creating a system of compulsory arbitration by State Tribunals. Labour bodies say that they will ignore the law, and they predict that it will ensure the return of the Socialists to power at the next elections.
