(A. P. By Guardian’! Special Wire) PARIS, June 12—The Chamber of Deputies sent a bill giving the workers of France a 40-hour week to the Senate today. and Premier Leon Blum sought quick assage of his labor meae so by e Upper House in order to speed a settle- ment of the paralyzing strikes. A "back-to-vn:or'k” movement throughout the nation seemed to he spreading faster than new strikes. Demonstrating workers in Paris were orderly under the eyes of mobile guardsmen. who prevented mass demonstrations and arrested persons who refused to obey ord- ers to “keep moving" on the streets. The Communist leader, Maurice Thorez, yoined union officials in ef- forts to persuade strikers to accept accords, saying workers must "learn how to end a strike the moment essential demands are met." A 40-hour week was one of the pi’ ' l demands of the strike movement. which at its peak had nearly 1.000.000 workers idle. It was passed by the Chamber see to 175. Reinforcements of mobile guards and police were quietly stationed about the capital. An attempt by the Croix do Pleu. Nationallstic war veterans’ organ- isation. to keep butcher shops op- en despite a walkout caused loud protests from the strikers. Police intervened and prevented serious trouble. socialist leaders, expressing fear of "foreign elements" in the strike movement, conferred with police. Premier mum refused demands that he oust "folded arm" strik- ers occupying factories and stores. but said he would take active mea- sures if necessary to prevent the strikes from going beyond the gov- ernment's control. Roger saiengro. minister of the interior. announced 266.576 strikers continued to occupy places of work in the Paris region.

R. vice-president told the Senate Railway Commit- tee today. He agreed with Sir Ed- ward Beatty, C. P. R. President, in this. Mr. Coleman said. The two railways had labored diligently to effect economies by cooperation. he said, and it was a mistake to rippose there was any spirit of hostility between them in carrying out the Government act requiring cooperation. C. P. Plullerton, chairman of trustees of the C. N. R. disagreed with Mr. Coleman in the amount that would be saved by unification. setting the saving at $15,000,000 for both lines. Arrangements had been made up to the prwent to provide for a saving of $1,100,000 a year for both companies. Mr. Coleman said. Ex- ecutive officers of the system had approved plans for saving $500,000 more annually and had recom- mended other arrangements to save 825,000 a year. “You have never reached the stage where the two systems should go to the met on any eco- ‘iomy disagreement and appoint an aibitral tribunal?“ Mr. Meigh- en asked.

New potatoes from Texas which were placed on the Halifax mar- ket during the week for the first time this year were selling for $9.- 00 per 90-pound bag. The bulk of the supply which mill remained in the Maritimes was being exported to United States where unlimited prices were being bid by wholesalers as a result of the great scarcity that has resulted in the wake of the drought which has held the crop back some weeks. City market officials comment- ed today it was the biggest scar- city thoy had seen in more than a. decade as only one booth offered potatoes for serle.-—at alrnmt four oents a. pound Government officials said to- night they did not expect the sup- ply of local spring tubers would be placed on the market for at least three weeks.

Drought in the southern and central potato-producing territories of the United States had proved a blessing for Price Edward Island growers who have shipped 150 cars to the United States this season at good prices. he declared.
