COMPLETE FOR TWO HOURS ONLY
SOME RIOTING IN PROVINCES. MANY INJURIES SUSTAINED. (United Press Association—Copyright.) (Receved This Day, 10 a.m.) PARIS, November 30. “I am satisfied,’’ declared M. Daladier. “I never doubted that the Civil Servants would remain at their posts.” M. Johaux (secretary-general of the Trades Union Executive) said: “There was a complete stoppage for two hours. Owing to military measures we have not contested resumption of work.” At Lille hundreds of strikers stopped three tram-cars. Using spades looted from an ironmonger’s shop, they smashed the windows and injured ten passengers. The Mobile Guard placed a cordon round the area and mounted troops charged, 50 arrests being made. Many were injured on both sides. At Toulouse, 200 strikers attempted to raid department stores. The police intervened, resulting in a serious clash.
