RED TACTICS, PASS ANTI-SABOTAGE BILL (By the Associated Press) A surge of non-Communist votes| today broke up Communist fili- buster tactics in the French Na- tional Assembly, and it passed an anti-sabotage bill after four days ot hubbub and haymakers. The bill is aimed at protecting American arms aid shipments due| to arrive soon in French ports. Thc‘ Communists have set up a Comin- form-inspired “peace offensive against the shipments. The vote in favor of the bill was 368 to 186. 1t now must be approved by Parliament’s Upper House where passage is expected. The anti-sabotage bill provides for prison terms of from five to 10, years to anyone convicted of sabo- | taging the national defense, imped- | ing the transport of military equip- ment or trying to demoralize Lhe Army. Communists fought the measure | tooth and nail. It was passed after an all-night session marked by pitched battles and roughhouse play. ! France had mounting troubles on| the labor front, too. Premier George | Bidault’s government ordered the| draft of 100,000 utility workers to avert a nationwide strike of gas | and electric workers. | The workers in the nationalized | power plants were scheduled to walk out at midnight.

Fargher of Berkeley, Calif., THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA ANNUAL LEAVE CUT FOUGHT BY NFFE; 20DAYS PROPOSED An amendment to the deficiency bill now before Congress to cut the to 20 days and their sick leave to 12 days is being fought by the Ju- neau local of the National Federa- tion of Federal Employees. Federal employees now granted 26 days annual leave. The amendment was proposed by Sena- tor Douglas of Illinois as an “econ- omy"” measure. William Twenhofel, head of the Geological Survey, and Federation President, said a letter had been dispatched to Alaska Delegate E. L Bartlett for aid in the matter, and his reply read that the amendment would probably not pass, but that he would “do all I can” in opposing it. The Federation, holding their monthly luncheon at noon today in the Gold Room of the Baranof Hotel, were asked to consider the advisability of naming a delegate to the federation’s national conven- tion to be held in Los Angeles in mid-September. ‘The Anchorage local is now rais- ing funds to send a man from there, and contacted the Juneau local for their proxy in event a man was not sent from here, Twenhofel said. The federation’s board of direc- tors considered the matter a few days ago, and found the locals treasury in no position to send ar one from here. Alvin Blackerby was appointed a committee of one to investigate the matter further. Twenhofel explained that a proxy granted Anchorage would assure that the membership’s voice in Ju- neau would be heard at the conven- tion. The meet concluded with a show- ing of a color film presented by the Columbia Lumber Company, en- titled “Lumber for Homes.” A. C. Blanchard, Jr., of Skagway is a guest at the Baranof Hotel.
