HALF CIVIL SERVANTS IN ITALY STRIKE
Rome, October 14. Over half of Italy's 1,000,000 civil servants struck for nine hours today in protest against the Gov ernment's refusal of immediate pay increases, official sources estimated, ・・・
The strike was complete in the Ministry of Mercan- tile Marine and about 80 per cent of the work- ers stayed away from the Ministry of Labour. Rome's telephones went dead, in the Premier's Office and the Ministry of the Interior nobody struck, while the strike was 20 per cent strong in the Ministry of Agriculture.
Most post offices were closed and although the union had an- nounced that telegraph and tele- phone services would be main- tained, this did not work out in practice, except for offejal mess- nges,
