Walkouts have made 100,000 Frenchmen idle and threatened to affect 1,000,000 gov ernment workers. The gloomy labor scene brightened slightly last night when strikers in French airports, who had slowed plane traffic almost to a halt, agreed to return to work. Terms of the settlement were not disclosed. Meanwhile, Premier Robert Schu man negotiated with union leaders to prevent a further spread of the walkouts. 30.000 Quit Yesterday. ■ The strikes began last week when ! 60.000 workers attached to the Finance and National Economy 1 Ministers struck for higher pay. Nearly 30,000 other workers, most of them civil servants, joined the 'walkouts yesterday. Government departments are so ! interwoven that strikes by a few I groups could affect 1.000,000 gov j eminent workers and bring all ac tivities to a halt. Strikers included all the clerks of Paris’ law court and a number of employes of the Public Works Ministry. Nearly 10.000 dock workers in five ports and 14.000 miners in France's potash pits were out. Hope was expressed that Mr. Schuman might reach agreement with leaders of the anti-Commu nist Workers’ Force, a federation of government employes, and smash the strike movement. One Point to Be Settled. If the Workers’ Foyce ordered a back-to-work movement it would be difficult for the remaining strikers, affiliated with the Commu nist-led General Confederation of Labor, to remain out. After a meeting with the Premier, one of the Workers’ Force dele gates said there remained only one point to be settled—the union's de mand to make retroactive to last January the raises decided at a cabinet meeting Monday night. The Executive Committee of the Workers’ Force called the strikes because the government had refused to grant certain employes a flat 3.500 franc <$12» monthly wage in crease. The holiday today marks the 159th anniversary of the storming of the Bastille. Disabled Veteran Refusing Exam Denied Special Aid By the Associotad Press A disabled veteran who refuses to take a physical re-examination thereby forfeits his special vocational rehabilitation benefits, the Veterans' Administration ruled yesterday. However, he is still entitled to the subsistence allowances paid to able bodied veterans training under the GI bill. The agency ruled, it said, in the case of e disabled trainee who re fused to report for a second physical examination which had been ordered for disability rating purposes. Additional subsistence and de pendency allowances are based on the degree of disability suffered by the individual veteran. The agency ruled that since the veteran previously established the need for training he must be allowed to continue that training—without the additional allowances that would be his if he proved hts continued disability.
