London - A city without its Newspaper.: For the the first time in 15 years Fleet Street is without its newspapers. Journalist and photographers found on arrival at their offices on Wednesday morning that their stories would not be rinted nor any pictures taken used. Delivery vans are lying idle outside the premiere of the "Evening News" and "Evening Standard. At the "Evening Standard" groups of me having nothing to do are picture leaning on the vans or standing nearby.Newspapers sellers have been conspicious by their absence. The magazine salesman still carried on. He hast to sell his publications, while he displays the notice that is bringing ruin to the great newspaper industry, "No Papers Strike." All is quiet in "The Street of Adventure". Machines have stopped working with commuters arriving from home and later leaving minus their favourite papers. A sad state of affairs.
