Paris, Aug 7.
The first formal protest from a big city against the economy decree laws introduced by the Laval Government, was made this afternoon by M. Adrien Marquet, the politically powerful Mayor of Bordeaux. He. recently sprang into prominence as one of the leaders of the neo-Socialist party.
M. Marquet said it was impossible to further reduce the city's expenditure. The municipal employees were already paid much less than the civil servants and the city's budget was only six times greater than that of 1918.
M. Laval, the Prime Minister, has written to M., Marquet asking him to set forth his whole argument in writing-Reuter Special.
