LONDON, May 13 work aplenty ‘marked the difficult task of the Assoclated Press Lon don staff in covering Britain's general strike from its inception nine days ago until the apnouncement of termination. Thfs announcement wi transmitted to the United States 6 minutes ahead of all competitors. Under the personat direction of Charles S. Smith, chief of the London “Thrills and hard | milk supply depots, are more_ than miles from the office.

Although Reuters and other British | news agencies never ceased function- ing during the strike, and through its relations with these organizations the Associated Press recejved constant ticker and bulletin service, it did not depend upon these news sources, there being scarcely any phase of the great val that its own staff did not Arst-hand.
