LONDON (Reuter) Unemployment in Britain has jumped to its highest level in two years with 3.5 per cent of the work force out of jobs, the government reported today. Latest statistics showed a total of 802,630 persons out of work, an increase of 10,808 from the previous month and the highest monthly total since January, 1973. Unemployment in Britain normally should drop at this time of year with more seasonal jobs opening up. The downward trend reinforced fears that Britains economic troubles could dramatically swell the ranks of the jobless.

The rubbish had been piling up ever since the drivers of the municipal garbage trucks went on strike at the beginning of January demanding an $ll-a-week pay raise. The garbage was bundled into army trucks and driven to incinerator depots where strikers were waiting. They jeered at the army trucks, but made no effort to halt them.

GLASGOW (Reuter) Scottish soldiers fought running battles with hordes of rats Wednesday after being called in to shift huge mounds of rotting garbage piled around this city as a result of a 10-week-old garbage-mens strike. The rats darted into the open as soon as the troops started swinging their shovels at the garbage heaps. Many rats burled themselves at the troops.
