#ounded on the matter.

I suggest the following for the Clause in question:- “Public employees will be reinstated and their wages paid for the period of the strike, reservation being made in the case of tha police on the question of disciplinary nagmures chich shall be Minally dealt with aowozling to the tischetion of the Chunoila”.

I trust that this formula will prow satisfactory to

you and thus the strike which has been infortunately piplonge) on this point will now be brought to a spnely termination.
