CI0 Council Plans
1oCampaignf for
Bridqes Freedom

FRESNO, Cal, June /. (UP)-The
executive council of the CIO was
authorized this week end to partic-
ipate in series of conferences with
Harry r. Bridges, West Coast water
front labor leader and CIO director
for California, TO plan campaign
for prevention of his deportation
ordered last week by Attorney Cen
eral Francis Biddle.
The action was taken by delegates
to the CIO conference of the Cali
fornia State Industrial Union Coun-
Gil, after Bridges had spoken for
an hour. He charged Biddle with
Slowing up the war effort of the
country by interference with union
activities and in other ways.
Biddle is testing whether Fascists
and pro Fascists are going TO sit
down and dictate the peace after
the war, Bridges stated, asserting
the attorney general is making a
test case" of the deportation issue.
The main purpose OF every deci-
sion or discussion is how we can
organize the work in the direction
OF winning the war, Bridges stated
Nothing that has happened or
should happen should change this
basic reason, he said.
The convention endorsed Robert
Kenney, state senator from Los An
geles county, for attorney general.
henney was a speaker at the con-
yention on Sunday.
Among resolutions passed at the
sessions was one urging the immedi-
ate opening of a western front in
Europe by the United States, and
another approving the stand taken
by the Associated Farmers concern
ing the farm labor situation.
