Laborites Protest Long Hours In Paris
In Paris on August 31 the Union of Workers' Syndicate of the Paris region urged members to refuse the cabinet decree extending working hours for national defense. The move comes as France's army commission meets Premier Edouard Daladier to discuss Germany's mobilization. The cabinet argues for rapid hour increases in defense and public services while mobilizing industry in emergencies. General Gamelin toured the border as rain and cold slowed maneuvers. The chamber commission seeks full secret service data on German preparations, amid talks of a more mobile French army to defend Czechoslovakia if needed.
