France to raise wages for strikers amid reforms
Premier Queuille outlined a cabinet plan to boost the national minimum wage by about 10 percent with a 2 percent variance offset by currency protection. The move follows a 12 percent rise in living costs since last August and aims to satisfy justified striker demands without jeopardizing economic rehabilitation. Rail strikes disrupted transport with mixed reports of train service and a government requisition of key personnel. Official drafts were issued to about 40,000 workers as unions instruct members to end scheduled walkouts.
