BELATED- INCREASE—The_ Prime Minister sought to imply that the strike had nothing to do with the Government announcing, on Aug. 4, a $510-550 increase to the postal workers. Up till then, he said, the Government had simply accepted the .recommendations of the-Civil Ser- vice Commission without. having ac- which the recommendations were based, and it had simply obeyed the procedure laid down by Parliament.
