France to Oust Gov't Employes Who Join Strike
Paris. Premier Antoine Pinay announced that any public servant participating in the Red-ordered sit-down strikes tomorrow will be suspended. The move comes as the Communist dominated CGT with 3,000,000 members calls a general strike to protest the imprisonment of Jacques Duclos and the U S occupation of France. The cabinet vows disciplinary action and will stay in session to handle emergencies. Pinay also seeks a confidence vote on a sliding wage scale bill restricting consecutive salary hikes. Non Communist unions back the government in denouncing the strike.
