TEXTILE WAGES DOWN
EMPLOYERS STAND FIRM ON NEW PAY RATES NEARLY 200,000 AFFECTED LONDON, Tuesday. The wool textile trade employers have rejected the operatives’ latest offer to accept reduced wages. They express surprise that it was made in view of the fact that an even greater reduction had already been rejected. The notices of the new scale of wages which the employers propose to pay and which affects 150,000 to 200,000 workers, will come into operation at the chief centres of the industry on Saturday unless there is an eleventh-hour settlement.
