ALL-RUSSIA WARNING STRIKE SCHEDULED FOR NOVEMBER 5.

The leadership of Russia’s national trade union confederation called yesterday for a nationwide warning strike to be held on November 5 to protest against wage arrears–"Russia’s biggest social problem." Whether the strike goes ahead or not will depend on whether the call receives support from regional trade union organizations. (Itar-Tass, September 25)
