France ready to discuss strike terms with labor leaders
Premier Georges Pompidou said in the National Assembly he will begin talks with labor leaders on legitimate demands but will not discuss political matters. The strike paralyzed much of France with over 8 million workers involved, though electricity and gas remained on and mail and telephones operated. The censure vote was delayed as deputies debated education issues and political alliances. A separate bulletin noted a postponement of the vehicle safety check program due to state miscommunication.
