PRESSURE is building on dn management at Britain's fac- toy tory Walthamstow, East London:
They have big orders in hand in preparation for the Christmas rush, and are using the non-union office staff in order to try to get them out.
But the 180 TGWU members, mostly Asian, who have been on official strike since July 29, are determined to win. They are demanding a cut in working hours from 50 to 49 and that the management put on an extra shift and recruit more workers.
The police have limited pickets to four, but the strikers are organising for mass pickets and have also gone out to get trade union boycotts by dockers and seamen of Britain's goods.
