OTTAWA, Aug. 27 C (C?) Parliament's members moved into Ottawa Saturday for an emergency union under conditions they have never before experienced.

They also will pass judgment on Canada's participation in the Igor. can-war. The session will open at hs nu. !:.n.'r. mssdsy. ,

Parliament would have been summoned in any case to deal with the war issue, but probably not rm. til late in September.

This home-coming of the parlia- mentarians was unprecedented be- cause the law-makers were forced to travel by plane or motorcar be- cause of the paralysis of -rail trans- iportatlcn.

Thalr familiar capital gave them I grim welcome because the fav- orite homo-away-from-home for most of them. the chateau Lsuricr Hotel. was strikebouncl. It is a can- adlan National Railways hotel.

-It was expected that the form- alities of opening would be kept lo 3 minimum but with all the tra- ditions observed.

This is the third session of the 21st Parliament since Confodera. tlon. It will be opened with the usual salute of guns and the Speech from the Throne.

But trimmings will be forgotten. No social events are expected to grace the occasion as in the case when the law makers meet under normal conditions. , -

Prime Minister at. Laurent and his collcsg-ues in the government hava been meeting in council daily to prepare the Throne speech and outline the prcgi-am the cabinet will ask members to consider.

Legislation Expected

This is expected to include mea- sures designed to make it unlike- ly that strikes will again paralyze the country's vitally trans-continental rail service.

Buch legislation essentially would be repressive in nature and prob-

ably would arousr considerable op- positicn and debate. - Ulon loaders have said, how-

Talks Be-ivleen llnitins. Railways Break Down

By JOHN LeBLANC

OTTAWA, Aug. 2'! - (CP) The general rail strike will not be stopped before Parliament acts this week. a high Government author- ity said today following the sudden collapse Saturday night of Govern- ment-sponsoi-ed negotiations be- tween the railways and strikers.

The inevitability of a continued strike until Parliament moves. this informant said, became evident af- ter a new conference today between Prime Minister St. Laurent and leaders of the 124,000 workers on strike since last Tuesday.

The Prime Minister. it was learn- ed, made it plain to the union men that the Government is not planning any further steps until it brings in emergency legislation to and the strike at the special sas-

day. No Move In Prospect

On the part of the disputants. no now move toward renewed negotiations appeared in prospect. There had been no approaches by either party since their newest talks broke down Saturday night.

"The strike is going on with the situation unchanged," Frank H. Hall. spokesman for International Unions in the dispute. said after his meeting with Mr. st. Laurent and key ministers.

Traffic Snarl iSubsiding At Wood Islands Ferries

From ll a.m. till 10 pm. yas- terday the emergency controller's office did a land-office business straightening out problems in connection with outgoing car traf- flc via the Wood Islands ferries.

Unfortunately some of those

who had early bookings for yes-.

terday did not show up and the consequence was that the boats on the first crossing! to the Nova Scotia side were not completely filled. Yesterday afternoon. how- ever. the boats carried capacity loads. although the traffic from Caribou was comparatively slight.

For today. bookings have been taken for 110 cars. 27 trucks and one trailer-an equivalent of space for 160 cars. Cont-roller Storey emphasized last night that it is essential that these permit holders be at the pier well in ad- vance of the sailing hours. For the first trip at 8 am. they should be there one hour before

sailing. For succeeding trips he urges that they be in line three hours before sailing

Some bookings have been made for every day of this week, through to Saturday. It is am- phssized that when oookings are made for specific dates in ad- vance. they cannot suhseqllenily be changed without disarranglns the whole general schedule.

Capacity Loads Saturday

The handling of Saturday'i trafflc' presented a pleasing con- traiit to the overcrowding whicl: was evident before controls wr.-rs established. Instead of the long line of cars forced to Wilt over- night for the following day'i sailings. the "Dunning" left not. one car' on the pier when she pulled out with is capacity load on her last trip.
