FRANCE'S PRIME MINISTER
COMMUNISTS OPPOSE MR MOCH (Rec. 10 p.m.) PARIS, Oct. 13. Reuter says that the French Socialist Minister, Mr Jules Moch, will ask the French National Assembly to-day to nominate him Prime Minister in succession to the Radical. Dr. Henri Queuills. « In a protest against his nomination, the Pans region of the Communistdominated General Confederation of Labour has called on all Paris workers to stop work this afternoon. The confederation asked the workers to demonstrate against Mr Moch's programme of “misery, reaction, and war.” Nothing was said about how long the stoppage would last. Mr Moch incurred the wrath of the Communists when, as Minister of the Interior, he broke the coal strike last year.
