Turns Down Suggestion Of
Association in Pres
emf Deadlock
DOES NOT WANT DEAN
MORSE TO 0FFI(IATE
Sends Letter Asking for e.
forts 10 Negotiate
New Contract

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, Aug 23.-
Harry Bridges, CLIO labor leader on
the Pacific Coast and head of the
Longshoremen, has rejected the Of
fer of the Waterfront Employers
Association to submit all proposals
for revision of longshore contracts
to Dean Wayne Morse, of the Ore
gon Law School.
Bridges has written to the asso-
citation officials as follows:
I'VE again propose that sincere
and determined effort be made to
negotiate new agreement for next
year"
Yesterday the association propos-
ed that the deadlock over the 1910
longshore contracts be submitted for
arbitation to Dean Morse, of Port
land.
The association offered series of
amendments to the present contract
including the eight-hour day, and
straight pay, also hiring hall
changes.
The association suggested TIL t
Dean Morris decide the virtues of
the case from their standpoint, also
those of the longshoremens de-
mands, including a shorter hour
work day and increase in pay.
The suggestion of the association
came after the Maritime Federation
appealed to President Roosevelt to
intervene in the deadlock which has
developed when the federation said
the employers refused to consider
any changes in the present contract
expiring September 80.
