Directors Withhold Wrestler's Payroll; Disputed Re-open
Trouble between the directors of the Tokyo Wrestling Association
and the wrestlers was revived on February 13, when the directors refused
to pay the wrestlers a portion of profits due to them from the spring matches,
this year.
The refusal of payment is said to be a retaliatory
measure against the wrestlers' notification that they would not join in
a wrestling circuit this year, unless the settlement of their last dispute
be satisfactorily arranged.
The directors requested the Superintendent-General
of Metropolitan Police to mediate, and it is said that the wrestlers are
awaiting the mediation to take place.
