New Prime Minister Spends Busy iiay

OTTAWA, Nov. i6 — (C?) If the white-haired man in the big office could have had his way, it would have been just another day. Holding down ihc job of Prime Minister is no new trick for Louis St. Laurent, and on this first full day as Prime Minister in his own right he was ready for work as usual. .

In fact, he did manage to get in a pretty fair amount of chores despite the harrassmenta of the occasion.

Seven hundred telegrams were waiting for the new Government head when he got to his East Block office at 9:i5 ash. on this first morning after taking over from William Lyon Mackenzie King.

He spent the first part of the day wading through sheaves of them and then dictating as many replies a he could squeeze in before the well-wishers started calling per- sonaliy.

Mr. St. Laurent received several of these — lagely senator and members of Parliament - before turning to some routine Govern- ment tasks that filled in the rest

The week-old strike by members of the International Longshore- men's Association (A. F. L.). also threatened to shut down several New England woollen mills. It has also made about 2,000 truck driv- ers and helpers idle in greater New York. a spokesman for the truck- ing industry said.

At the same time. the striking dock workers received assurances of support from two other mari- time unions.

Paul Hall. secretary-treasurer of the Seafarers International Union (ARI...) told newspaper men that‘ the union "has given and will give full support to the longshoremenl and we will help in any way we're‘ requested to." I

As excitornent rose in the House, Churchill declared the Government plans to buy industry shares on their market value was “not only unfair but it seems aciudl dishon- esty." Share values had been de- pressed by threats of nationalizat- ion and by appeals to keep down dividend payments.

The Conservative leader said no one would believe that a “socialist industrial commissar" working for the Government would tolerate in- convenient competition between steel firms left with their names and the present organization after the government buys the shares.

The bill provides for nationaliz- ing the larger steel plants but leav- ing the smaller undertakings in private hands. »
