Moscow, Jan. 23. More than 100 executive officials have been dismissed, or reduced in rank, during the past week, as a result of the campaign to tighten up labour discipline.
The campaign has now extended to civil aviation with the announcement that ten pilots, engineers and executive officers have been dismissed for unpunctuality. The dismissal include M. Molokov, Chief of Civil Aviation in the Far East, who will be prosecuted for absence from his post on January 7 and 8, the Russian orthodox Christmas.—Reuter.
