CONCENTRATION ON BRITISH STRIKE. ENDS MUST BE GAINED. London, June 12. The Riga correspondent of The Times states that the Third International, in declaring that the failure of the British coal strike will be a severe blow to the revolutionary movement, has ordered the workers to continue the maximum financial support, for which a compulsory deduction from their wages will be made. It has also drawn up a list of immediate tasks in connection with the strike for the British Communists, including the enlistment of the unemployed, the publication of a Communist daily paper, the placarding of walls with news bulletins, and the stimulation of Communism in all British industries, including shipping. The newspaper Pravda declares that Britain’s black heart has already ceased beating, and that the British Empire is sinking as surely as did the liner Titanic.— Times Service.
