ANOTHER LONDON STRIKE?
ANOTHER difficult situation is developing in London Transport circles. The central bus workers, through a conference of garage representatives, have asked the executive council of the Transport and General Workers Union to tender a month's notice to terminate the present agreement, and are seeking authority to strike work when it expires.
The men are striving for a shorter working week and other improved conditions of employment. Certain minor concessions offered_ by the Board are regarded as inadequate.
S.M.T. NEGOTIATIONS RESUMED.
QN Tuesday, negotiations between the Transport and General Workers Union and the management of the Scottish Motor Traction Co., Ltd., and associated concerns, were reopened. They were suspended during the 11-day strike.
