According to reports from Moscow, the Ryazan branch of the Soviet Writers Union recently yielded to party pressure to expel Solzhenitsyn from the organization. The move was taken to punish the 50-year-old author for "conduct unbecoming a Soviet writer," for "actively using the bourgeois anti-Soviet press for anti-Soviet propaganda," and for failing to combat the use of his name abroad. Since the ouster places a stigma on Solzhenitsyn, it means, in effect, that no Soviet editor would dare accept his works for publication...

...return for his surrender, T.U.C. leaders promised to dampen wildcat strikes by ordering their unions to send workers back to the factories-if and when the leaders see such action justified. If the unions refuse, the T.U.C. would expel them. Irate Tory critics called the promise "a scrap of paper." Last year about 1,900 wildcat strikes stymied efforts to resuscitate Britain's economy. The penchant for sudden strikes stems largely from the fact that British labor contracts are not legally enforceable. Until they are, there will be little chance to change the landscape of labor anarchy in Britain...
