FARM BOYCOTT
THREATENED IN
FRISCO STRIKE

reprisals will be made against San
Francisco business interests" the
announcement said.
San Joaquin Valley farmers, who
produce huge part OF the states
agricultural goods, normally depend
upon San Francisco as one of their
largest markets and their principal
shipping terminal.
Today the A. F.. o. Teamsters
union temporarily withdrew pickets
from the San Francisco waterfront
while union leaders met in closed
sessions to map out new strategy
in their fight to regain control OF
C. !. o. warehousemen from long
shoremen.
The fight is part of larger
drive of the A. F.. o. to wrest con-
troll of Pacific coast maritime work.
ers led into the G. I. o. early this
year by Harry Bridges, Pacific coast
representative OF John l.. Lewis.
The Teamsters placed pickets
around the wharves in an effort
to halt diversion of cargoeS and
thus keep longShoremen from re-
turning to their jobs. The long
shoremen went through the picket
lines, however, and they were fol-
lowed by other dock workers and
sea-faring members of the maritime
Federation of Labor who said they
would not recognize the Teamster
picketS.

Berlin, June 28 = (U.P0 = NaM authorities struck a double blow to- day at churchmen who oppose the Modification of religion.
 First they arranged to try 12 prominent evangelical pastors, lead- CTS in the opposition movement, on charges of "incitment of diSobed- ience."
 Secondly, they prepared to cut the income of Protestant and Roman Catholic churches draStically under a three-year curtailment program, throughout Bavaria.
 It was understood that the 12 evangelical pastors would go on trial Wednesday. They are expected to admit that they violated govern ment decrees in some instances, but to deny that there was legitimate basis for the decrees. Adolf Wagner, minister of education for Bavaria, announced the income curtailment in q speech at Munich yesterday Wagner made it clear that the gov- ernment was retaliating against 'al- most the only disturbing element present in the national socialist (NazD state"--the church opposi- ton. During the next three years by a gradual process, Wagner said, Bavaria will eliminate the so-called voluntary subsidy which the Bavar- ian government has paid to church. es since a portion of church proper ties were sequestered.

Three Months Shoe Strike hMaine Was Ended Sunday

ed on March 25.
 The 19 factories affected by the walkout employed total of 6400. at height of the strike about 2000 were out but it was estimated that only 600 to 1000 were on strike when yesterdays vote was taken.
 The strike ended with only one of the factories operating under an agreement with the c. I. O. Em- ployes of four others have voted Flor the c I. O. in consent elec- tionS" but no agreements have yet been reached. Seven factories have recognized local unions ar bargain ing agencies, three factories have closed, and two have been liquid- ated.
 Only at Highland Shoe Company in Lewiston, employing about 800, had strikers obtained 10 per cent wage increase, 40-hour week and a closed shop after resignation of the U. s. w. A. as bargaining agent in a consent election" at the plant.
 The strike originally was called in 19 plants for IS per cent wage increase, 40-hour week, U. s. w. A. recognition and closed shop.
 Heads of a dozen companies order ed to submit to N. L. R. B. elections were to meet today to consider 8 possible appeal from the order.
 Powers Hapgood, New England secretary of c. I. O., and six other c. I. O. organizers are serving six months jail sentences for violating state supreme court anti-strike in- junction.

Auburn. Me, June 28-(UP)- Upward of $1,500,000 was the es- timated cost today of the 93 day Auburn Lewiston shoe strike which was ended abruptly yesterday by vote of members of the United Shoe Workers of America, c. I. O. affili- ate.
 That figure covered not only losses of wages and orders by employees and employees respectively, butt also the costs of policing and main- tenance of National Guardsfnen sent here when bloodshed threatened.
 c. I. O. organizer Daniel FfCollins of Brockton, Mass, ani4Nnnced termination of the strike after a closed meeting of 500 strikers in Lewiston City Hall.
 A resolution adopted at the meet ing said the strike objective had been reached in the recent National Labor Relations Board order calling for elections to determine bargain ing agencies in 12 plants.
 The c. I.

GRANT IS LOSER,
 BUDCE IS VICTOR
Bunny Austin Beat Atlanta Man-BOOkmakers Re-
 fusing Bets on Budge

Wimbledon, England, June 28.-- CUP). Bunny Austin, England's No. l player and Davis cup mainstay, gained the semi-final round of the All-England tennis championship today with a straight-set victory over Bryan Grant of Atlanta. Scores was 6-1, 7-5, GA. Donald Budge, the California redhead, seeded No. l, joined Austin in the round of four with a crushing 6-3, 6-l, GA victory over Vivian McGrath of Australia.
 Budge, who has been playing so well since he came to England that bookmakers have refused to accept any more wagers on him, showed no signs of slackening today. In Nc Grath, who swats his backhand with both fists, Budge had formidable foe, but the Californian hand cuff ed him with the severity of his strokes. The Californian's service was particularly ferocious, and he splattered aces all over the service court. His forehand was stinging, and McGrath found it suicide to come to the net against the Ameri- cans backhand. Budge astounded the big gathering by the speed of his court covering. Time and again he raced across the grass to whip back what seemed impossible shots.
 The Grant, Austin match ran true to form, with the Briton winning on steadiness and control. Austin's accuracy was f1awleSs, and he ran the little American ragged with shots to the corners. Grant reached set-point in the eighth game of the second set, but his ground strokes collapsed at this poiit and Austin breebed in. Grand won the csrowd's acclaim Ii the eighth game of the final set when, despite his weariness, he beat of three match points and won the game.

Voluntary subsidies were $10,- 100000 in 1884, $1O,000,000 in 1885, and $8,000,000 in 1886. In quoting these figures, Wagner said that even with the curtailment of volun- tary subsidies, the church would be well of. He suggested economies cutting the salaries of high church. men. He said that Cardinal Faul- haber, Roman Catholic archbishop of Munich, for example, received $l1, 400 a year and the Protestant bishop of Bavaria received $8,400.
 The Rev. Martin Niemoller, one of the most outspoken of the Evangel- ical oposition pastors, continued his criticism of the Nazis in two meet ings at his Cahlem church here.
