COTTON SPINNERS
LOCK-OUT PROPOSAL DEFEATED. (Rec. 8.10 p.m.) London, May 23. A ballot of members of the Federation of Master Cotton Spinners’ Associations on the question of endorsing a reduction of wages by 12j per cent, by a lock-out if necessary failed to give the requisite majority of 80 per cent. The federation decided to take no further action. There is the keenest satisfaction among 500,000 operatives in Lancashire.—Australian Press Association.
