IDLE BRITISH FOUNDRIES
SERIOUS EFFECTS OF STRIKE. 1 MEN BLAMED BY MINISTRY. A. and N.Z. DON, Sept. 23. The position in regard to the ironfounders' strike continues serious. Stocks at the largest foundries are likely to be exhausted in a fortnight, and at the smaller foundries in a few days. The injury to the industry will be the greater as the engineering trade is booming.
The Ministry of Labour refuses to negotiate a settlement, adjudging the men guilty of a breach of agreement. The men assert that the agreement empowered withdrawal after compliance with certain conditions, which, they state, were observed after fruitless negotiations.
