It is estimated that 8,000 new strikers have joined the walkout in Sholapur alone. | The greatest apprehension is being felt by the government which is re- ported to be taking the strictest pre- cautions for instant and summary suppression of any sign of unrest among the striking masses of textile workers. In spite of the threatening attitude of the government and frequent police and military provocation the textile strikers have maintained an orderly attitude to date, however. The seriousness with which the au- thorities view the situation is sensed in the return of governor Sir William Leslie to Bombay from Mahabale- shwar where he had gone to spend the hot weather. Mahatma Gandhi, also has can- celled a trip to Europe, an Amedha- dad report states. AUSTRALIA DOCK STRIKE LIKELY Threaten Walk-Out If Govt. Sells Ships MELBOURNE, April 26:—Trade unions have threatened a nation-wide shipping strike if the Australian gov- ernment sells the Australian Com- monwealth Line to Lord Kylsant, head of a huge shipping combination, according to reports received here from Sydney. The line which originally cost be- tween $35,000,000 and $40,000,000 will @be sold to Lord Kylsant for less than $10,000,000, according to the tenta- tive agreement reached by the Brit- ish shipping interests and Premier Bruce of Australia. The trade unions have threatened to prevent the loading and unload:nz of all ships belonging to the line if the transaction goes thru.
