An Open Letter To The
Associated Farmers Of California
DEAR FRIENDS :


Many of the things for which you stand | approve
and many of my friends are hoHOred members of your
organization, so for this reason among others, | am
addressing you thus for the purpose of calling to
your attention facts appearing in the official
court records of California.
First, think you recognize the fact that it is the
duty of the ATTORNEY GENERAL, as with Dis
trict Attorney to prosecute where he believes the law
is violated and likewise where individuals bring ac-
ton against public official to defend such official
when in his opinion the official is in the right
Now to the point: Some time back the Waterfront
Unions of Harry Bridges (the Harry whom you all
love?) went strike and then the strikers mmed-
lately applied for unemployment insurance-and got
1T. The members of LongShOremans Union alone
receiving in Of $40O,00000 in such insurance
payments.
The waterfront employers. dsliking having to CON
tribute TO such insurance have been contesting the
matter, and have at last succeeded in bringing the
matter before the APPELLATE COURT. The court
rendered its decision which appears in the August
18th advance sheets of the Appellate Reports. There
three decisions in all: the Grace Co. case; the
Amercan-HaWaiian Co. case, and the Matson Termi-
nal case and in each and every of these the
court held that in striking the union members refused
employment, making them ineligible for unempoy-
ment insurance under the provisions Of the law and
that IT was violation of the provisions of the law
for the Unemployment Commission to grant insurance
payments TO such strikers
And now the important point and the reason Of
this letter: Along with the lawyers who appear
behalf of the strikers in contestng the action of the
employers and in fact their chief counsel non other
than the Honorable EARL WARREN, attorney gen
eral of the State of California and the same EARL
WARREN who, under the claim of being a Non-Parti-
candidate for Governor, captured the Republican
Nomination for Governor of California at the Primary
Election last August.
Believing will appreciate this information con-
eernlng the NonPartisan candidate, and with my best
regards
Sincerely yours

Meat Restrictions
wiIICurb Supply
OF Corned Beef

WASHINGTON. Oct. 2. (UP) -
Iron" rations for the armed forces
and lend-leaSe will take four of
every pounds of cutter and Gamer
beef marketed in the next three
months under a plan of restricted
civilian meat deliveries, it was
learned today.
The restrictions on all types of
meat, it was estimated. will cut
civilian supplies in the final quar-
ter of this year to approximately
four -fifths of the amount which
was available during the same per-
iod of 1941.
A spokesman of the food REQUIRE
mentS committee said four-fifths
of deliveries of cutter and canner
beef wolAd be used in making corn
beef, bully beef and bologna for
government purchase.
The Office of Price Administra-
ton, formally inaugurating an ord
er announced last month, reduced
packer deliveries of all kinds of
beef to 80 per cent of last years
deliveries. and set quotas on pork,
mutton. lamb and veal in prepar-
alton for direct rationing to con-
sumers, expected to begin early
next year.
The diversion of such a large
percentage of cutter and canner
beef to the government will prob
ably mean civilians will be able
to purchase a much smaller amount
of canned and processed meat pro-
ducts. while receiving about the
same amount of higher grade fresh
meat that they are now able to
buy.
The OPA had earlier planned to
cut veal deliveries to 80 per cent,
but the armed services and lend
lease officials said they did not
want this type of meat, thus free
ing the whole supply for civilian
use.
The limitation order exempted
canned meats, sausage, scrapple,
souse and similar products because
the meat from which they are
made will be subject to restrictions.
Lard, liver, hearts and kidneys were
also exempted.

with fuel bottles. The enemy lost
200 men and withdrew.

had been checked.
The German objective in this
area was the Grozny oil fields, IS
miles southeast of Mozdok.. The
enemy opened a powerful drive to-

new drive in northwest Stalingrad.
"In the Mozdok area, Soviet ar

noon communique said. Cavalry

out more than 100 Germans.
