MONTREAL, April 23
A message from Toledo, says that over two thousand employees in the Chevrolet Motor Company's plant there, walked out on strike to-day, following the collapse of negotiations with the General Motors Company’s Executive. The interest of tho en-, tire car industry is focussed on the i strike, it being the first major hold-! up of its kind in the present' era of labour conflict, and it is viewed as a possible test of strength between the unions and the employees. I While wages and conditions are in dispute, the real bone of contention is the demand of the union to a ninety per cent, representation among the Chevrolet employees.
