NIGHT SHIFT STRIKE AT MORRIS MOTORS
FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT
OXFORD, SEPT. 24

Night shift workers in the dispatch departments at Morris Motors, Oxford, staged a token stoppage tonight in support of 450 car delivery workers who have been on strike. As a result the factory had to be closed. The car delivery drivers stopped work a week last Monday over a claim for a 42-hour, five-day week with overtime pay.
