DEPORTATION
AWAITS ALIEN.
RED ACITATORS.
Labor Department Pledges
Full Cooperation in
West Coast Drive
F. R. IS CONFIDENT
OF RESTORED ORDER

WASHINGTON, July 10. (UP)
Secretary of Labor Frances Per-
kins last night pledged the govern
ment's full cooperation in a drive
against aliens responsible for rad
ical agitation and communistic
activities in connection with the
San Francisco strike.
Replying to a telegram from
Governor Frank Merriam of Cali
fornia requesting immigration au-
thorities to arrest and deport
aliens participating in the San
Francisco strike blockade, Miss
Perkins said:
"The San Francisco district i'm
migration director has been keep
ing in close contact with the sit
uation. The commissioner of i'm
migration and naturalization at
Washington has today again wired
to the district director to act with
promptness in any case in which
there is evidence presented to or
discovered by him indicating that
an alien is deportable under pro-
visions of law"
Merriam, in his plea to Miss
Perkins said he had requested
President Roosevelt's aid through
the immigration department. He
said a "grave and urgent problem
was presented the people of Cali
fornia with respect to radical agi-
tation and communistic activi-
ties"
"The department of labor
(Which has jurisdiction over the
immigration Department. will CO.
operate with California authori-
ties to the full extent authorized
by law" Miss Perkins wired.
Earlier President Roosevelt,
though still declining to intervene
in the strike situation broke his
silence concerning the walkout
and radioed Miss Perkins, express
ing full confidence that his San
Francisco federal mediation board
would settle the dispute and that
common sense and good order
would prevail" \
The United Press announced
exclusively two days ago that the
immigration and justice depart
ments would become active in San
Francisco. The justice department
has notified it's agents in the San
Francisco area to be ready for
emergencies.
The text of Miss Perkins mes
sage to Merriam follows:
Answering your telegram to
me in regard to action by the fed
eral immigration authorities I as
sure you that the department of
labor will cooperate with Califor-
mia officials to the full extent au-
thorized by law.

DICTATORSHIP IS ENDED

SAN FRANCISCO, July 10
(UP).-Labor leaders today led
definite efforts to bring the gen.
eral strike here to close.
At Oakland, the strategy COM
.mittee directing the strike Of A.
600 men has called a meeting for
tonight to vote on the question
of returning to work. The COM
mittee has recommended an af-
firmative vote.
Mayor Angelo Rossi, of San
Francisco, informed the strike
committee its "five-man Dictator
ship" is at end.
San Franchises great general
strike, for the first "a hours per-
haps the most effective labor re-
bellion in history, was crumbling
rapidly today.
The state of siege was almost
over.
Union restaurants had re-
opened. The gasoline famine was
finished. Filling stations resumed
business.
Wholesale produce markets
turned in a matter of hours from
a deserted area patrolled by SOL
diers to a bedlam of activity. as
food and buyers arrived simulta-
neously.
Speeding the collapse of the
giant strike were two succinct
statements-one from Gen. Hugh
s. johnson and the other from
Mayor Angelo Rossi--to the same
effect: -.
There will be no arbitration un-
! til the unions first call off the
strike.
Said Johnson, who Wednesday
became definitely associated with

longshoremen's board:
81 am here to do what the fed
eral government can do to aid
these coast communities to settle
this trouble. It is their job in the
first instance. But the federal
government cannot act under the
continued coercion of a general
strike. The first step to peace and
agreement is to lift that strike.
Until that is done I have nothing
to Offer"
Said Rossi:
"In the presence of general
strike nothing can be accom-
plished. That strike must be end
ed"

city was tense after special police
fired on a motor car in which
Senator Robert T. Wagner, New

President, was riding.
At Seattle a general strike was
doubtful and a repetition Of wa
ter-front violence was feared.

strike crippled business and a
United States mediator hopes to
bring the union and management
together.
