The Sunday stoppage order at the Athlit quarries has been cancelled, says an official communique issued here to-day, confirming the J.T.A. forecast to this effect (given in yesterday’s J.T.A. Bulletin).

It has been found possible, the communique states, by altering train times to enable the Jewish labourers at the Athlit quarries to resume Sunday work beginning on January 11th.

It is rumoured here that the Colonial Office in London sent instructions for the cancellation of the Sunday stoppage order overruling the wishes of the High Commissioner, who is said to have advised against cancellation.
