HC Deb 28 July 1927 vol 209 c1463
77. Mr. DAVID GRENFELL

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether he can give any further information as to the strike at Messrs. Massey and Company's factory at Madras; the reason for the strike; the number of workers involved; and the length of time the strike has continued?

Earl WINTERTON

A Report from the Government of India, dated 7th July, states that the strike continued. As regards the last three parts of the question, I have nothing further to add to the reply given to the question by the hon. Member for the Mile End Division of Stepney (Mr. Scurr) on 27th June.
