It was "Shank's.

The general strike, called last night by the Cón- federation General du Fravail (General Work- ers' Union) and the Confederation Francaise des Transports Chretiens (Union of French Christian Transportation V'orkers), spread the "wildcat" strike by an independent union and brought transportation routes above and be low ground to à hult.
