London Quarrel Taken Up Over All England London, Apr. 19.
Extension of the London cinema strike throughout England was announced yesterday by the Electrical Workers Union.
This measure was adopted because the association of British cinema proprietors declared themselves unwilling, despite the strike here, to meet the union's demands on readjustment in pay rates and the recognition of the Electrical Workers Union by the association.
Till yesterday the strike has been rendered quite ineffective as the association of British cinema employees had instructed its members to fill the positions vacated by operators and members of the Electrical Wothers Union to ensure a regular presentation of films.
The strike is now in full swing in Manchester and Hull—Trans-Ocean.
