BOTTOM FALLS OUT
OF AFRICAN STRIKE
Men are Returning to Work,
But Authorities Are Not
Relaxing VigiIanCe-MayOr
Arrested With Strikers.

JOHANNESBURG Jan. IL The
projected general strike has collapsed
a result OF the determined efforts
Of the government 10 suppress all dis
order.
All but 5000 OF the 1000 railroad
employees have returned 10 work Min
ers are also resuming work in all the
districts ard general industry is rap
idly reViving
The authorities. however, are not
relaxing their vigilance and arrests
are constantly being made for all sorts
OF offenses. Pedestrians are frequent
~ halted in the evening by shots fir
ed by the street patrols. The rule
that everyone shall be indoors by s
o'clock in the evening is rigidly en-
forced and respectable citizens dis
regarding il are rushed off 10 Jail
without inquiry. All the prisons are
'crammed to suffocation. the burghers
being almost craZed with delight over
the opportunity TO arrest all corners.
Press censorship has been enforced
to the extent that all newspapers be-
ing forced TO submit proofs of all mat
ter before publication.
These tactics have paralyzed the
strike leaders and although they have
brought EN- barrassmenC to many hon
est citizens the latter have welcomed
them as a protection against the dis
order that the spread Of the strike
had threatened upon the whole dis
trict.
An amusing incident occurred in
connection with the raid. The mayor
was closeted with the strike leaders
offering good advice but the burghers
who raided the hall refused to recog-
nize his protest and rushed him off
with the other prisoners to the Jail
where he was released on his own
recOgnizance.
