WASHINGTON. May 29 INS1
Senator Robert r. Reynolds CD

that he would move for immediate
Senate action on a bill to outlaw
the Communist Party, the Ger
|man-American Bund and all other
organizations or groups advocat.
ling the overthrow of the United
States government by force.
Reynolds made his announce.
ment following the decision of At
torney General Biddle that the
Communist Party does advocate
overthrowing the American gov
ernment by force and that Harr,
Bridges. West Coast labor leader
should be deported because he hat
been member of the Communis
Party.

Bridges should not be per-
mitted to make the trip out of
the country alone" Reynolds
stated. There are thousands
of others who ought to be de-
ported or put into concentration
camps and held there until we
can get rid of them.
Attorney General Biddle's
ruling ought to give impetus to
my bill and shall push Il. The
Communist Party should be
barred from political tickets and
forbidden to engage in political
enterprises"
CONDEMNED BY CLIO
Many members of Congress
joined Reynolds in his stand anc
in hailing Biddle's decision, but
officials of the Go were strong
in their condemnation of the
ruling.
Philip Murray, Go president,
said:
THE order of the attorney
general directing the deporta-
ton of Harry Bridges is a blow
not only to all concepts of
American justice, but even more
a blow at national unity and
morale necessary for victory in
the war against the Axis.
The CIO has consistently de-
Tended Harry Bridges since the
first attempts to deport him

Barber Shops
MayCloseFor
A'Full Day?

Frank Violante, secretary-treasurer
of BARRIERS Local us, New Haven,
suggested this week that New Haven
barber shops might lead the way in
closing shop one day each week as a
means of conserving electricity and
fuel for the war effort.
ViOlante stated that the equiva-
lent of 800 gallons of heating oil
week and of $3.50 worth of cleo
tricity a month is now being saved
through the halliday closing of
many shops in the New Haven area.
Full day closing of all shops would
almost triple this saving, he said.
All but a few of the downtown
and college district shops in New
Haven are closing Wednesday af-
ternOon, he said, adding that the
union is continuing its efforts to
have all shops close.
One of the first group of barber
shops in Connecticut to close Wednes-
day afternoon for the duration of the
war as conservation practice was
the Fair Haven BARRIERS. This group
recently voted to accept Frank Spado1a,
president of Local 215, and Violante,
as honorary members of its associa-
ton.
