counties showed unrest, isolated labor troubles, and a generally dis turbing situation in the harvest. The militia was prepared to move into any action where conditions became disorderly. Numerous com munities, far removed from San Francisco were feeling the pinch of food shortage for which San kFrancisco and Oakland are distri- buting centers. Citizens of all Northern California towns, and their town and county governments were on the alert.
 The general food situation in San Francisco was worse. Householders in most cases had full larders. But one article after another was dis appearing from stores. Cigarettes were being rationed by dealers. No meat could be purchased. Bread was getting more scarce - and stale. Good fruit was becoming a treasure. There still was coffee but beer was running low.
 Only one agency was at work attempting settlement of the strike. It was the presidents med- iation board, trying to find solu- tion to the deadlock between em- pioyers and the maritime unioLs, which precipitated the present sit uation. But it's voice was becoming lost in all the bedlam. It finally is- sued a statement reminding the strikers that 1t was "still available for peaceful settlement of the labor controversy that is disturbing the Pacific coast" It pleaded for indus trial peace.
 For a time last night some hope was pinned to the arrival of Gen. erai Hugh Johnson of the NRA from Portland. But General John-
 son bowed himself quickly out Of the picture and said he would have
 none of it.
 People Leaving City People were still leaving the city in consid erable numbers. Papers
 began carrying advertisements from resorts. No food shortage here" was the general tone of the advertising. Some added mo gas-
 oline shortage"
 The city, judging from the num- Der of automobiles in operation
 was finding a way to get gasoline, chiefly by visits to towns outside the strike area.
 The general strike committee was l in session most of yesterday ana into the evening. There were indi- | cations that there was far from
 complete harmony among strike leaders. The committee announced | the municipal railway would be | permitted to run.
 But four cars, and those heavily guarded, were all that operated.
 It adopted restrictions against sale of liuuor. But liquor continued to
 be sold. It attempted to relax food
 restrictions. But the effect was not
 noticeable. Reports were that there had been violent disagreement be-
 tween conservative and left wing | forces

(Contirued rom Page 1.) cluding wheat harvesting. Stories have been told that he never was a longshoreman, but the best in- formation is that for six years he worked more or less in that trade along San Francisco's waterfront.
 There are many things said about him. One story is that he was a hobo and rode his way across the continent from the At lantic coast on the brake beams to lead the present strike. That seems incorrect for Bridges was here. an officer of the Longshore- mems union, long before the strike began.
 He also is said to have led a strike last year in the Imperial Valley. But his exact activity there never has been identified.
 Has Left Wing Ideas
 Bridges is distinctly of the left wing of the labor movement. Plainly he Is versed in the philos- ophy and theory and tactics spon- sored by the Third Internationale. But he never has professed himself publicly a communist.
 His qualities of leadership per- haps are his greatest asset. He can rally men around him.. In the present strike he has a per- sonal following of about 300 loyal

YOUTHS STRUCK
 | BY LIGHTNING
Flashed Down Stove Pipe in COttage--Managed
 to Reach Hospital N

Beacon, N. Y..--July 17-(UP)
 "A bolt of lightning flashed down n stove pipe and across a room in cottage in which four youths were sitting1at Fishlxill. They were hurled into the air and struck senseless. When. they recovered consciousness they found them selves completely paralyzed, unable to move even their eyes. Their legs and feet were painfully burned from the metal in their high shoes. The room was in disorder. Dishes were shattered, the handles torn off the refrigerator. and canned goods split open.
 After while the youths re- gained the use of their muscles sufficiently to crawl out into the rain. They lay tn the mud until they could crawl into their auto mobile. None of them had recov- cred sufficiently to drive--so they drove together-one man releasing the brakes, one manipulating the throttle, a third steering. In that fashion they feached a doctor. Frederick Evans and John McLain were taken home after treatment. Franklin Lorenger and Edward Lyon remained for treatment at Highland hospital where the story was disclosed today. All live in Larchmont.
