known that the large percentage of
shoppers are women.

must leave essential household

QUINN GIVES
OUTLINE Of
HIS POLICIES

LOS ANGELES. May 16. (Spe-
ciaD-John r. Quinn, chairman of
board of supervisors of Los Angeles
county, today announced that he
would be a candidate for the Re-
publican nomination for governor
of California at the August pri-
mary election.
His declaration of candidacy, it
was announced, was issued after
thousands of Californians h d
signed petitions urging him to enter
the race for the governorship.
u shall seek the Republican
nomination for governor ne said,
with absolutely no promises nor
pledges to any group or any indi-
vidual, and I shall endeavor to give
the people aggressive and courag-
eous leadership.
1--WE all realize that there are
issues of grave importance affect
ing the welfare of all our people;
there are issues of tax reduction
and of social and economic import
ance which must be faced by the
next governor of California.
Naturally I am well aware of
these gigantic and solemn respon-
sibilities. I am not going to make
empty promises, for I have defin-
ite ideas of government.
"It is we'll recognized by all
thinking people that any governor
must work in close cooperation and
harmony with the legislature f
constructive legislation is to be
possible. It will be my primary
aim to achieve the confidence of
the legislature SO that may ac-
complish with their aid the object
ives of my candidacy.
cit is mandatory to curtail gov
ernment expenses, and effect
prompt reorganization of state de-
partments if sensible tax reduction
is to be made possible.
Revise Constitution
~ feel that it is essential to
nodernize the state constitution to
help in this regard, and to aid in
giving renewed stimulus to our &C.
onomic and social programs.
owe must develop our state IS
natural resources to the fullest ex-
tent and keep their control vested
in the people.
Primarily the well being of the
people comes first; for them the
state exists.
Therefore, the grip of power
interests on legislation must be
severed permanently and they must
be forced out of politics once and
for all time.
Growing crime problems make
it necessary to form a state law
enforcement organization to aid To-
cal officials in the suppression and
| prevention of crime. -
Regarding employment and re-
lief to those out of work, Quinn
said:
"T'here can be no prosperity un-
/ less labor is employed, and If elect.
ed governor of California l would
/ lend every effort to make pros
porous the basic industries of agri.
culture, oil, lumber, mining and al
other forms of business and COM
merce.' -
Education received an emphatic
declaration of support from Quinn
every child" he said, "musi
be given the opportunity for fres
education from the kindergarten tc
the university, and 1t is unthinkable
that education bear the entire bur-
den of tax reduction.

MARINE STRIKE
May Be Joined BY Left
Wingers'

New York.-The Marine Workers
Industrial Association, regarded as
"left-wing'' dual organization of ma
rine workers, has voted to join a pro-
posed strike of the international Sea-
mems Union, scheduled to become ef-
fective October 8.
The strikes will be conducted separ-
ately, but they are scheduled to be-
come effective simultaneously and to
affect the same territory.
The left-wing group circularized its
members, charging that the Interna-
tional Seamen's Union had called
strike in the hope of winning the
ground for arbitration Of long-stand-
ing disputes with ship owners and end
ing controversies over wages and
working conditions on terms that
would not be satisfactory to the ma
jority of the seamen.
Spokesman of the international pro-
fessed to ignore the charges Of the
rival group, and insisted that the
strike had been called in all ports from
Portland, Me-, to Galveston, Texas,
with view to winning higher wages,
larger crews, better working condi-
tions and central employment agen-
cies where seamen would be booked
for positions at sea on a rotating ba-
sis, thus ending the payment of graf
uities as condition of obtaining work.
