HOW WORKERS' STRIKE WAS PREVENTED

There were further arrests of students at Brno. The German authorities refused to give the names of those who had been ex- ecuted, so that extreme anxiety prevalled among the parents and relatives of all the students who had been arrested or had gone into hiding.

The Prague workmen declared their sympathy with the students and announced a general strike for November 22. The Germans replied that the members of every factory committee where there was a stop- page of work would be shot. so that
