The demand OF the French Metal
Wor union that the employers
graz them the right TO form what
are popularity termed "soviets' In each
factory to supervise the work was re-
fused by employers.
The latter eontended that the matters
over which control was requested did
not concern the workers, but they
promised simultaneously TO make an
attempt to alleviate the unemployment
situation.
The workers had demanded among
other things supervision of wages,
working and sanitary conditions.
II is not known what decision the
metal workers will take In the face
of the employers refusal, but the sit
uation admittedly is very serious.
There were further predictions OF a
large Increase In the number OF I'M

are the threats of the communist
