GAS

STRIKERS

BACK-TO-WORK

London, October 5.

London's gas strikers tonight decided to go back to work on Monday and end the 21-day-old strike, which has cut off supplies to many

areas.

The 1,400 maintenance men at four of the city's main gas-works decided to call off their strike, Ten which was for an extra 3d. an hour. ⚫leaders of the unofficial gas strikers were sen- tenced today to a month in goal for "malicious- ly" breaking their contracts..

Sailors were drafted to the gas-works today when the un- tended machinery threatened to cut off all gas supplies from the capital.

The "end of the strike"

call

was supported by a majority at a mass meeting held by the atrik- ers after their comrades had been sentenced at a City Couri earlier in the day.

Mr. Claude Berridge, the Lon- don district secretary of their union, said a substantial minority had urged that the strike should go on.

"But," he added, "I am fairly confident that the decision will be accepted."

The meeting said that its de- cision was conditional on the withdrawal of the sallors from the, gas-works, an assurance that there would be no victimisation, and the start of negotiations for a bonus scheme for the workers, The decision narrowly averted a threatened extension of the strike to 5,000 production men at the works so far the

SIGNIFICANT VOTING IN UNITED NATIONS

Lake Success, October 5.

Sovon United Nations mömbers became singled our as the "middle of the road" countries when the world organisation divided on the sharpost and most significant line up to date of the cold war. These countries, "abstaining" on the completely divergent East-West Korean peace proposals, were India, the Lebanon, Egypt, Syria, Yugoslavia, Afghanistan and the Yemen, with Saudi Arabia joining them later on the main Russian proposal.

He said, however, that it might give the North Koreans time to "gain something they do not have right now" and endanger the United Nations' plan of "making it hard for aggressors."
