ADMIRALTY DECISION MUST ALTER THEIR VIEWS (United Service) LONDON, Monday. The Government has decided, to, dismiss all Communists employed at the ■Woolwich Arsenal and Royal dockyards unless they renounce their allegiance to Communist doctrines. This announcement was made by Lord Stanhope, Civil Lord of the Admiralty, when he was receiving - a deputation from the Amalgamated Engineering Union about the dismissal of--Percy Glading from Woolwich. Glading is a member of the Amalgamated Engineering Union. Pie was engaged in the ordnance department. He was given the alternative of renouncing his membership of the Communist Party or dismissal, and chose the latter. It is understood that the Government’s edict was prompted by reports of Communist agitations at Portsmouth, Devonport, and Chatham.
