They waved a big banner with the legend "Workers, strike against the preparations for war," in honur of the worldwide communist anti. war demonstrations today. The cockney conductor of the bus faced a first-class dilemma when the demonstrators refused to be silenced and could not be remov- ed from their self-imposed galley- slavery, He finally drove the bus to the dignified precincts of Scot- land Yard, where the best detec- tives of Britain were equally at a standstill before the problem. After the communists had been left singing in the rain while Scot- land Yard inspectors and the cock- ney conductor debated the proce- dure, the police finally sawed through the gordian knot, to speak by sawing the seats from the omnibus with the communists at- tached. The eight "reds" were conveyed to the police station for examina- tion, presumably a Surgical one to 80 detach the seats.
