SAN FRANCISCO, May 20 (UP)
Judge Charles B. Sears. presiding
at CIO leader Harry Bridges dep
ortation hearing, ruled inferentially
today that the fact that Bridges
might have acted for welfare of
workers in his labor organization
did not necessarily prove he was
not a Communist.
Accordingly Sears refused to per-
NIT questions on specific labor cases
which the defense contended would
show Australian-born Bridges was
following a policy completely con-
trary to the Communist party
lines"
Sears made his ruling after over
night consideration of the point. In
argument in a previous session of
the hearing he said such testimony
might tend to show only Bridges
was bad Communist"
The decision was considered def
mite setback for the defense,
1t came during examination Of
Sam Kagel, staff member of the
Pacific coast labor bureau which
advised Bridges on many union mat
terS.
Kagel was permitted to testify
generally that Bridges always fol-
lowed a policy of advocating strikes
only as a last resort; sometimes
cooperatcd with governmental agen-
cies in efforts to avoid strikes and
was equally willing to use arbitra-

Sheds
Sign
Pact
Wrap Packers to
Get Wage Boost
Under Agreem

Six cantaloupe packing
sheds in the south part OF
Imperial county Tuesday
signed open shop agreements
with the wrap packers union,
an independent organization.
The agreement provided for wage
increases over the AF of L request
for several types of workmen en-
gagged in the cantaloupe business
this year.
In the north part OF the county,
however, the AF of L organization
was said to have signed four can
taloupe sheds in closed shop agree
ment.

Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Packers
of California, signed the open shop
agreements with Fred Bright, Char
les Freedman, Alex Engleman, the
Imperial Garden Growers, Walter
Farley, and the A. Levy-J. zentner
company The wrap packers said
they had from 80 to 100 per cent
Of the workmen on the six sheds
listed as members OF their organ
| ization.
This open shop contract signed
by the six companies will remain
in effect for the dull alton of the
cantaloupe and melon season ana
thereafter unless cancelled 80 days
prior to April /, 1912 Unless can
l,celled the contract shall automati-
cally renew itself for a year from
the expiration date.
Under the terms of the agree
ment the shippers recognize the
wrap packers as the workm\s
representative for collective bar
gaining.
The wage scale adopted shows
that the wrappers are to receive 6
cents a crate, the same as last year
and the same as requested by the
AT of l. suggested agreement. Re-
ceivers will get IS cents an hour or
the same as the AF of L request.

LaGuarQla Will reIdIl Ills Pooe do
mayor of New York.
The OCD, which will give every
American man, woman and child an
opportunity to do his or her "bit'
for the defense effort, will be Or
ganized under the Office of emer-
gency management on strictly vol
untary basis, the president said.
He disclosed that he signed the
executive order setting up the new
agency this morning. LaGuardia will
arrive in Washington tomorrow to
get the program under way.
Under terms of the executive Or
der, decentralization will be the
operating basis of the new agency.
The federal OCD agency will rec
ommend and guide, but actual ad-
ministration will be centered in
state councils of defense and in
OCD regional offices. Mr.. Roose-
yelt envisaged a regional system
under which regional offices will
be established in nine cities cor
responding with ths headquarters
of the nine corps areas of the army.
Under the executive order, two
chief divisions were set up in OCD:
/. A board of civilian protection,
with LaGuardia as chairman ex-
officio presiding over representa-
tives of the war, navy, justice and
federal security departments, rep
resentatives of the council of state
governments, the American munic-
ipal association. and the U. S. con-
terence of mayors.
2. A volunteer participation COM
mittee, with LaGuardla also chair
man ex-officio, presiding over a
membership of not more than 20
nembers.
LaGuardia, as other officials of
OCD, will serve without compensa-
ton. The president envisaged local
cooperating units financing any
training programs that might be
entailed He said that financing in
volved in hiring personal for the
Washington OCD office and re-
gional offices will be betrayed from
his own personal emergency funds.
