A resumption of the labor- management talks Monday probably would stall introduc- tion of legislation imposing a wage settlement on the two par+ ties. WOULD HOLD BACK Government spokesmen haye said the strike-ending bill will be held back as long as a chance of voluntary agreement exists; Todays talks are under the supervision of Labor Minister Nicholson and Bernard Wilson, the government's top labor rela tions expert. Some of the 116,000, railway workers involved will already be walking picket lines in Newe foundland and the other Atlantie provinces before the round of talks is completed, WILL TALKS CONTINUE? The big question was whether the talks would continue during the weekend in hopes of getting a, negotiated agreement before Parliament steps in and ims poses one with strike - ending legislation. Although Parliament reopens Monday to handle the strike crisis, government spokesmen have said the legislation will be held back as long as a chance remains of getting agreement between the two sides.

The varying demands for the four groups average 30 per cent and the union negotiators maintain the line, publicly at least that this is the only acceptable fig- ure. their last chance... .
