Onnosition TO the convention as

insisted the general application OF the
shorter working day would. according
to actual experience, greatly lessen pro

1T is generally recognized" Mr..
Parsons said, that unless the Ohited
States accepts similar legislation ~
would be placing an unfair burden
upon Canadian employers and the
country at large, to be bound by terms
of the proposed convention.
Newton w. Rowell, the government
delegate from Canada, disagreed with
Mr.. Parsons, saying he feared the
position of Canada might be misunder-
stood as a result of Mr.. Parsons. re-
marks. He announced that he and the
other Canadian government representa-
tives would vote 70, the convention.
Leon Jouhaux, the French labor lead
err, declared that in voting for the con-
vention the workers had no idea OF
waving any of their aspirations but
that they would vote for 1T because IL
was the first time internationally the
principle of the eight-hour day and the
4s-hour week had been affirmed in an
assembly where government delegates
were present.

he said, and later he hoped 1t would
be so broadened as to apply to com
merce as well as industry.
