May 2G. A general strike went into effect today in Calgary and Edmonton, the two largest cities next to Winnipeg in the Prairie provinces.

The plan of collective bargaining submitted by the Central Strike Committee as a basis for settlement of the Winnipeg general strike was formally rejected this afternoon by the Winnipeg Citizens' Committee. The action of the Citizens' Committee was formally approved by Gideon Robson, Federal Minister of Labor, who denounced the labor plan as a scheme to put a few local labor leaders in control of Winnipeg industry.
