Bridges pledged his organization
will tolerate no discrimination,
either from the liza or the water
front employers, against long
shoremen who join the ILWU or
express sympathy with it.
To Ask Higher Wages
He said the ILWU next month
will reopen negotiations with en-
ployers, asking higher wages. a
straight six-hour day and better
working conditions, and urged Ia
coma workers to affiliate in time
to take part in the discussions.
Bridges talk was preceded by
brief addresses by Harold Prit-
chett, president Of the C1O wood
workers. and Matt Meehan, secre-
tary-treasurer of the ILWU.
Pritchett denied there is any
snimosity between members of the
ALL and CLIO, and declared re-
sponsibility for the split" in labor
rests with "reactionary and die
tatorial top officialdom of the
ALL" Further organization of
the basic industries. he said, will
do a lot toward solving the ma
tons problems.
