 AFTER STRIKERS

Paris, July o.-(UP)-Premier Leon Blum'S popular front govern ment today faced imminent neces- sity of resortine to force to bring internal peace to France before dealing with pressing international problems endangering the peace of Europe. t
 Although reenforced by a senate vote of confidence, the government prepared to deal drastically with labor troubles. The senate, much more conservative than the defl- nitely red-tinged chamber of depu- ties, voted confidence only after cautioning Blum that stay.in strikes must be ended and that industrial peace must be restored.
 Blum approved Minister of the In- terior Roger Salengro's declaration to the senate against occupation of facotries by strikers.
 He sent Minister of State Paul Faure to confer with trades union leaders to outline the future gov- ernment policy with regard to the strikes that have disrupted French industrial life for the last six weeks.

EIGHT HUNDRED
 LOST THEIR WORK

Webster, Mass, July S-(UPJ- About 800 textile operatives were thrown out of work today when weayers at the North Webster mills of the Slater Company refused to return to the plant under Q pro- posed wage readjustment. Company ofilcials in announcing the readjust- ment contended 1t was necessary to meet competition and that in cer- tain cases would mean an increase rather than cut in wages. Weav- CTS maintained, however, the re- adjustment would entail 25 per cent reduction.
 The weavers, many of whom are members of the United Textile Workers of America, voted against returning to the plant last night.
 Because weavers are keyworkers, other departments were crippled. Only skeleton crews were working in some departments, and company officials expected complete shut down by the end of the week.

RAND TO CLOSE
 ALL FACTORIES

(Continued from Page l.) called at Syracuse, (N. Y0, and I'm not backing down an inch from the decision I announced at that time."
 Violence Embltters Him
 Tn view of the violence at sev- eral of the plants during the past few days, Rand said, "it has strengthened my determination not to give in from my original stand.
 Regarding an announcement from Buffalo the regional national labor board had agreed to investigate union charges against the company, he said mo company officer will attend the meeting. FurthsF::cFe, the board has no Jurisdiction over western New York and we have no labor dispute within its Jurisdiction"
 He asserted "the unconstitutional ity of the act creating the regional labor board had been undermined by the Guffey coal decision" and he would refuse to heed any summons to Q conference on the union charges
 He Is Satisfied
 So far as the local situation was concerned. Rand declared he "was satisfied the plant soon would re- sune normal operation"
 We expected quite a few would remain away from work today be- cause of the disorders Of yesterday and last night, but only the two per- sons who were injured when bus was stoned failed to report this morning. Today we had a larger payroll than yesterday. When the night shift starts Thursday we will have more workers on the payroll than before the strike was called"
 He said there were many new workers" replacing those who re- mained on strike but we have made 1t Q rule to employ nobody who lives more than ten miles from Middletown, and no one from out side that area or outside the state. ' N VIII Not Sec Governor
 Rand said he would not attend a conference called by Governor Cress for late today. The governor, ad- vised of the situation at his Lake 6unapee, N. F., summer home, hastened back to the capital.
 we have nothing to discuss with the governor, Rand said. "So far as we are concerned, the strike is over"
