These points were made known tonight when the bill was made public at 8 p.m. l!:.D.'r. as the P " . 0 s' reading- approval in principle-of its pro- visions. The bill calls on the union to notify its members that its direc- tion to go on strike has "become invalid by mason of the coming into force of this act." It contains two schedules detail- -lng the railroads and the unions involved in the dispute. The bill does not provide penalty for non-compliance with the de- cision of the Govemment-appoint ed arbitrator, But it does say this: "Where the arbltratorhas de- aided any matter not agreed upon between a. railroad company and a union . . . the railway company and the union shall give effect to the decision and shall conclude a collective. agreement for that pur- pose and until they do so the col- lective agreement to which this act applies to which they are parties shall be deemed for the purposes of the industrial relations and dis- putes lnvestigatlou not have been amended. mutatis mu dis. to give effect to the decision and to have effect, notwithstanding anythlnz in that act, for the term fixed by the arbitrator. but nothing in this act shall be deemed to limit or rcstrlct the rights of parties to the agreement to agree to vary 91' amend any of the terms of the agreement as so amended and to give effect thereto." on the question of a reduced work with -- sought by' the unions .. the bill says that. if the arbitra- tor so decides, the increase in wags; resulting from such a re- duction "shall be retroactive to a day not later than the day on which the employees return to work pursuant to this act." The return-to-work instruction is worded thusly: 4 "Within 48 hours after the com- mencement of this act every rall- wgy oompuly shall resume oper- ations of the railway and subsid- iary services the operation of which is suspended by reason of the strike now existing and every em- ployee who is now on strike shall return to the duties of his employ- ment with the railway company by which he is employed."

Aug. 29-(CP)-Rail strike leaders. at a meeting call- ed after the Government pre- sented a "back-to-work" measure to Parliament. decided late to- nlght not to call off their gen- eral strike until the bill has be- come law. One top-level union officer said an earlier disposition to call the strike off definitely tomorrow had been reversed by the union heads' "disappointment" at the terms of the legislation brought down by Prime Minister St. Laurent this afternoon. . This officer said today that the strike would be called off tomor- row, but after the night meet- ing he said that attitude had been based on the union leaders expectation that lhe uack-to-work bill would be more acceptable to them. OTTAWA. Aug. 20-(GP)-The general rail strike appears headed for an early end. Parliament today went through the early stages of dealing with a Government "back-to-work" bill which strike leaders have stated they will obey. At the same time. an authoritative union informant told the Canadian Press that the 124,000-man walkout will be called off tomorrow at the latest. regardless of whether the bill is passed by then. "They'll be back tomonrow." said this informant, a high union officer directly engaged in the labor strat- egy over the strike that began last Tuesday morning. Earlier, Frank H. Hall. co-leader of the strikers. said he expected that the unions would wait until the legislation had been passed be- fore calling the strikers back to work. He said yesterday this would be done if Parliament ordered it. Union Head: In Conference Late tonight. after the Commons had given first reading to the Gov- bayonef attack.

Allg. 20-(GP)-The Canadian Navy heralded with pomp and ceremony today an cv- ent. of dual significance in its hist- cry. The destroyer Nootlul was re- commissioned for service in what- ever the Korean conflict and any other war may bring. This was done that the Nootka-a Tribal Clan destroyer-came under the com- mand of Omdr. Alexander B. Fras- er,-I-lan-ia. who learned to fly first and then to sail. He is the first air pllot ever to command a Common- wealth destroyer. Although all of Can da's services have respect for the obs of other fighting forces, the appointment of a flying man to a navy ship is con- sidered new and significant. It is said to typify the attitude of high military officers who recognise that infer-service co-operation is nec- ersary.

The big rush which was expect- ed did not materialize, however. and only 12 cars and seven trucks were on hand to make the first trip at 7.15 p.m. Originally sched- uled for 6.30. the "Abegweit" was held up due toitlle fact that word had been received from union headquarters that only union men could operate the ship. A number of crew members had to be chang- ed in accordance with this ruling. Only three cars and three trucks were on hand to make the second crossing last evening. Most of the cars to make the first trip were from the U lied States. with a few from va s parts of Canada.
