...collected from his 25,000 employes. Last spring a 10% wage cut brought ugly rioting at the Citroën plant in Paris, a lock-out and in the end a several-weeks' shutdown. A completely redesigned Citroën for 1934 entailed heavy retooling expenses and Jean Frenchman cocked a doubtful eyebrow at the new low-priced models. By last week Andre Citroën was desperate for cash. As the price of aid a group including the Bank of France and Credit Lyonnais lifted the sceptre from M. Citroën's well-manicured hands...
