Amsterdam. April p.-rns workmsrs .
Defense COMMITTEES decided to-day to pro-
claim a cessation OF the general strike at
midday The strike was never really ef-
fective.
At q monster mass meeting he'd later IN
the day the Federated Trades Union re-
pudiated the action OF the workmen's De-
fense Committee and decided to continue
the strike without the consent OF the COM
mlttee. The tumult prevented the members
OF the defense committee from securing a
hearing.
With the exception OF the diamond cut
ters, all the men VIII remain out.
Tho workmen's defense committee has Is
sued a manifesto explaining that continu-
ance Of the strike will only expose the
strikers TO the vigorous penalties OF the
new ant-strfke bill. which has practically
fore decided TO leave each trade union free
to act as II thinks best.
The Anarchists and Socialists are busy
exploiting the situation. urging the men TO
ignore the committee and continue the
strike The men are inclined 10 follow this
course, finding themselves confronted by
dismissal and too deeply committed TO
withdraw.
