Sabotage, Strikes
Aimed At Leopold
BRUSSELS, Belgium, tIP)
The railroad track from Leige to
Paris was cut during the night
near Charleroi. Trains were con
siderably delayed.
It was the 27th sabotage action
reported since King Leopol's re
turn to Belgium on Saturday.
About 10,000 workers laid down
their tools in two large metal
plants in the Charleroi area.
Last night in Brussels newsreels
of Leopold were booed in two thea
ters. In Liege, 8,000 workers of the
Cockcrill steel plant left work this
morning and the strike movement
slowly spread to all industries in
the area.
In Antwerp, where pro-Leopold
demonstrations were scheduled for
Thursday evening, the socialist
burgomaster banned meetings of
more than five persons on the
streets.
Later reports from Liege said that
5,000 miners had joined the strike
and large forces of gendarmes
were patrolling the center of the
city. Nails had been spread on
some streets to puncture tires of
passing vehicles. ,

AFL And CIO
To Unite Efforts
WASHINGTON tJPl The AFL
and CIO have made their first for
mal agreement to work together in
politics, legislation, and internation
al policy.
A permanent AFL-C10 unity com
mittee was created. Perhaps in
a month or two, it will hold other
meetings to consider practical ma
chinery to settle inter-union quar
rels and to study proposals lor
"organic unity in the American
labor movement."
The committee also plans, soon
er or later, to bring the United
Mine workersand other outside un
ions into the discussions.
As expected, "organic unity"
or real merger of the AFL and C
IO is definitely not just around
the corner. The news oi immediate
importance is that for the first
time in the .history of their ri
valry, the AFL and CIO top com
mands have proclaimed to t h e
county and to all their 141 un
ions: "We will work together."
In part, this amounts to an of
ficial sanction o f AFL-CIO coopera
tion that has been increasing in
various fields sometimes on a
local level almost secretly.
