SPLIHODMS IN FRENCH liV’TRANKS

(By Richard Massock Associated Press Foreign Stall)

PARIS, June l0—~A general strike of hotel cafe and restaurant employees in the Paris region was voted tonight as a possible split in the Clovernmcnrﬂs Leftst majority over me 40-hour week bill was seen.

The new strikers joined the ranks of hundreds of thousands of

‘others who are demanding more

money and shorter hours, and all of whom are awaiting parliament- ary decision on the labor bills of Premier Leon Bluin before re- turning to work.

The measures were introduced yesterday and sent to a special parliiimentary committee.

Many miners still remained down the shafts.

Roger sail-ngro. Minister of the Interior, tackled the strikers in northern mills. where workers showed little disposition to end their walkout until new privileges were guaranteed by parliament.

(The five principal demands of strikers were granted Mhnday in a general agreement. which in- cluded wage increases of from seven to is per cent, recognition of unions and collective bargain- ing. a 10-hour week and paid vacations. Northern miners went on strike immediately after the agreement was signed).

Although there were isolated disorders. the strike situation was cuier throughout the country.

Constitution “A Sacred Contract” Between Dominion And Pro

vinces, Says Senator Turgeon.

(C. P. By Guardian's Special Wire)

OTTAWA, June 10-Warning that any steps to give the Dominion Parliament the right to amend the Canadian constitution might cause a union of some of the provinces with the United States today was sounded in the Senate by Hon. 0. Turgeon (Lib. Gloucester).

There was a growing desire in the Republic to bring Canada into the autonomy of the United States, the vet- eran parliamentarian declared. “But," he stated, “Canada's material links with Great Britain must.be maintained.”

A Sacred Contract

The British North America Act was a "sacred contract" between the Dominion and the provinces. He did not believe the provinces would endorse any proposal the 1‘ ’ ‘ Parliament should have power to amend the constitution. Ui.- ' consent expruaed the respective provincial legislat- ures must first be obtained.

Hoar Mai-ltlmo Views

Legislature; of New Brunswick. Nova scotia and Prince Edward Island would never concur. The Maritime Provinces had suffered incessantly in recent years from large interests in the Western Provinces. neglect of their parts and harbors and export of western products through United states ports on the Atlantic. “The Mari- time Provinces are under the un- shakeable belief their position would become still weaker if pow- er to amend the constitution were given to the Dominion,” senator Turgeon stated. His chief desire was to keep the constitution "un- der the guardianship of the Im- perial Parliament to preserve it from the multiple Jealousies and lack of consideration which would arise."
