Reds Strike Paralyzes Italian Rail Service
More than 100000 communist led railway workers walked out for 24 hours, cutting service to about a quarter of normal. About 80000 non communist unionists did not participate. The government vowed protection for non strikers to keep essential trains running, prioritizing international tourist trams to France and Switzerland. The Confederation of Labor demanded roughly 15 million dollars in raises amid last minute efforts to avert a broader shutdown.
