adian railway and telegraph ser
vices today. t
Prime Minister Louis St. Laur
ent announced in Ottawa that
parliament is: being summoned
to deal with the emergency. He
advanced no specific proposal
far a settlement. Presumably most
f the legislators will rely on
planes to get to the capital.
The suspension of railway and
telegraphic service, particularly
with the world situation we face,
will quickly create a serious em
ergency and the government will
have to act to protect the vital in
terests of the wole national com
munity, St. Laurent said.
Meantime, buses, trucks - and
planes were called upon to ease
the crisis in transportation across
this sprawling nation of 14,000,000.
Trucks were mobilized for 24-hour-a-day
" service, but could
move only a fraction of the thous
ands of tons of freight handled
daily - by the railroads. Remote
communities feared they would
face harship soon. The major sys
tems affected are the Canadian
National railways and the Can
adian Pacific railways.
Railway ties between the United
States and Canada were tempor
arilv broken.
The strikers total 124,000.
Though they do not run trains,
their work is regarded as neces
sary, for safe and efficient opera
tions. They started the walkout at
6 ajn. in each of the time belts
from Newfoundland on the east to
British Columbia on the west.
Railway -spokesmen estimated
more than 200,000 operating and
ciencai employes wui oe xaia on.
Most at them staved home tndav.
The unions demanded that the
work week be reduced from 48 to
40 nours, eriecuve Jan. i, wun
pay for 48 hours, plus a general
wage boost of seven cents an hour
retroactive to June, 1949.

Lend-Lease to
Soviets Kept
The United States government

Russia more than $297,000,000
worth of tanks, guns, ships, agri
cultural, industrial and other com
modities in the three year period
after the close of World War H,
in a blast by Representative Wal
ter Norblad in Washington, D. C
this week, he notified friends here
Tuesday. .
"Rather than cutting off supplies
under lend-lease at the end of the
war," Norblad said, "we continued
to build and supply the Russians
with a large quantity of material
which has greatly strengthened
their military and naval positions."
Norblad said it is Interesting to
speculate how much of this mate
rial may be in active use against
our men in the Korean battles..
