We went shopping for a new hat
the other day, and came back with
an inferiority complex because
Of our hair. For fashion DEGREES
that nilady's hair should serve q
double purpose. More than Just a
becoming frame for the face, today
your hairdress acts also as frame
Cor your hat, those wonderful and
ridiculous bits Of feminine coQuetry.
So we decided to 60 shopping first,
for a new hairdo.
We found that the upswept Golf
fure is still a fashion must, giving
that neat, sleek look to the head
that Is 80 wonderfully dlgnifed.
Even for the casual feather cut,
beauty magicians have developed
styles Of halrdress which are as
neat as a pin and Just as practical.
Ends Of the hair turn up In sculp-
tured curls brlskly away from the
face For these hectic times,
American women, It might be said,
are putting frank, open face on
the matter.
And since 1t was decided that our
hair would receive featured billing
In the dress picture, we decided to
make It worthy of that role. SO
We colored 1t from its drab, streaked
grey state, to It's original bright
brown BE-. and presto, that feeling
Of inferiority vanished. And now
we were set to brave the milllners.
One uf the most interesting new
millinery sflhouettes, is the Cossack
"Pakakha" tr fez) which we found
high, wide, and handsome. But
fearing that our enthusiasm for
Russian millinery might have been
engendered by our enthusiasm for
the Russian military, we went on
to investigate other exciting new
headgear.
The return Of the beret to high
fashion, is matter we hail with
Joy. For with a little deft handling,
the beret can be all things to oil

OTHER EVIDENCE OF
BRIDGES ASSOCIATION
WITH THE COMMUNIST
PARTY

THERE was other evidence
Il tending to associate Bridges
with the Communist party. Lee
+. Barlow testified that in 1885
Bridges, in answer to a ques-
ton, said that the only way
young fellow could get ahead in
the labor movement was to join
the party. Though denied by
Bridges, the presiding Inspector
reached the conclusion that the
conversation took place. This
has some significance in the
general picture.
There was testimony that on
Aug. 16. 1885, Bridges discussed
with several active members of
the Communist party, at least
two of whom were not members
of a trade union. the contents of
a telegram which he proposed to
send to an officer of his local
union. Judge Sears believed the
evidence, and thought it showed
a close association with COM
munists, in line with other evil
dence of affiliation. Howard
Rushmore's testimony was to
the effect that Bridges had
praised the Youth Congress. and
mentioned cooperation which
he had received from the
National Students League-both
identified as front organizations
of the Communist party.
Jude Sears did not consider
that this testimony established
Bridges m e m b ersh Up in or
affiliation with the Communist
party, but did show Bridges at
titude toward the party and its
program. Bridges sympathetic
attitude toward Communists"
was shown, said Judge Sears, by
the testimony of Ezra +. Chase
and John S. Horn. which, how
ever, fell short Of establishing
membership. Bridges attack on
so-called "red-baiting" tended to
sustain this attitude.
Judge Sears excluded other
evidence that Bridges had at
tended Communist meetings on
the ground that it was incon-
elusive, unreliable or contradic-
tory-the evidence of Diner that
Bridges had attended a conven-
tion of the Communist party on
Sept. %. 1884: of HONG, who
claimed to have seen Bridges at
a number of top fraction"
meetings a short time before
the 1861 strike; of Thomas
Lawrence, who claimed TO have
seen Bridges at a Communist
meeting at some time between
May 9 and July 81. 1894; of
Maurice J. Cannalonga, who
testified that Bridges had par
ticipated in Communist "frac-
ton" meetings; of Richard A.
st. Clair. who gave testimony
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1942-06-05
Attorney General Biddle S
Order to Depor+ Bridges

For the first time this country
has an administrative ruling
that communism advocates the
overthrow of the American form
Of government by "force and
violence.
For gears the Hearst neiCs-
papers hare been qodrning the
public aud their official repre-
sentotives of this menace to
liberty and justice.
The ruling, made BY Atty. Gen.
Francis Biddle IN the Harry
Bridges deportation case, is Of
such uital consequence that The
Detroit Times is reprinting the
historic document an sir install
ments, of iOhich this is the fifth.

THE NORTH AMERICAN
AVIATION STRIKE

On June 5, 1871, the workers
at the North American Aviation
plant in Los Angeles, engaged
in production essential to the
national defense, went on strike
in violation of an agreement not
to strike pending mediation be-
fore the national mediation
board. Richard l.. Frankensteen.
national director of aviation Of
the CIO. gave his opinion that
the strike, though the demands
were justified, was Communist
Unanswered and unwarranted.
Bridges, who kept in close touch
with the situation. regarded the
strike as justified; and, though
Go director of the state OF
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1942-06-05

that he had seen Bridges three
times at Communist headquar-
tiers; of Robert p. Wilmot, that
he had seen Bridges at Com
munist fraction" meeting and
had heard him confess to being
a Communist; and of John Oliver
Thompson, who testified that
Bridges had gone with two Com
munists TO the party's head
quarters in New York. All of
these witnesses were, at one
time or another, members of the
Communist party. Although
Judge Sears concluded that their
evidence, for one reason or an
other, did not establish member
ship in or affiliation with the
Communist party. taken as a
whole it cannot, because of its
volume, be completely disre-
garded.
FUDGE SEARS found that the
u alien was not opposed to the
publication in a trade union
newspaper of Communist re-
leases provided that they were
favorable to the policies being
pursued by trade unionists them
selves. This finding is largely
based on Bridges own testimony
that: II believed that if the
Communist party happened to
send in a statement saying they
would do everything they could
to support the particular dispute
at that time in behalf OF the
union position. my position would
be that L wouldn't have any
great objection to seeing that
carried in the union paper"
