RAILROAD STRIKERS ID BE JOINED BY
 OTHER WORKMEN
Paris Scene of Trouble, But So Far the Government Has Kept Up Fair
 Communications
By Associated Press

Paris, May 2.--The strike of the
 railroad men for standardization of
 the railways, which is to he joined
 tomorrow by the miners and dock-
 men, has resulted thus far in him
 dering traffic only on four of the
 five big systems. Temporarily,
 however. the state line which runs
 to Havre is tied up.
 Services on all lines were curtailed today. The Parisian forces were op- erating about 50 per cent, except the Lazarre state system, which cancelled all trains from the capital.
 The governmen ent's determination to fight the strike for naturalization has been voiced by Minister of Public Works LeTrocquer and Premier Mil lerand. M. Millerand said the govern ment was prepared to do it's duty in the maintenance of order and to pro- tect the men who remain at work.
 M. LeTrocquer expressed confidence in the outcome of the situation He explained that he had foreseen the conflict and that as result the rail- ways, public services and industries had been provided with the greatest supplies of coal than they had had at any time since the signing of the armistice.
 In carrying out it's policy to break the strike the government again has issued decree to requisition motor trucks and other transportation equip ment in certain regions
 The response of the miners to the strike order is awaited with interest, especially as they have been granted their recent demands
 The secretary of the miners union in the Loire department has asked the men not to obey the strike order.
 Technical students and volunteers who were organized by the govern ment during the strike last February already are replacing many of the railroad men who have ceased work.
