team and named Edward c.. Har-
ris business manager. Harris, who
lives in Berkeley, is in charge of
recruiting and will eventually have
charge of signing up players to
whom contracts are given. He
stated this week that Newt Allen
of the Kansas City Monarchs and
Jim West of the Birmingham Black
Barons were corresponding with
him and had tentatively agreed to
work with the. Berkeley Oakland
unit as trainers.
According to Harris, the impetus
given Negro baseball by the first
Negro league in the history of the
west coast offers an unexcelled op-
portunity for young men recently
discharged from the army. More
over, inasmuch as the west coast
teams will play big name teams
from the eastern Negro leagues, all
teams will be secuted for big-time
possibilities.
Beside the Berkeley-Oakland
team sponsored by the High Marine
Social club, teams are being spon-
sored in San Diego, Los Angeles,

cinderpath champion repeatedly

manager of the Black Barons, is re-
ported to be backing the Seattle
team.

Forest 'BIoze
 UnderC Control

Sandwich, Mass, April 22--(UP)- One of the worst forest fires in Massachusetts history was controlled early today and two persons were seized as possible arsonists after flames ragged for 36 hours through 160 square miles of grass and shrub pine in an area around Camp Ed wards.
 A small army of firemen and vol unteers from 30 communities fought the fast-spreading fire whic h brought dozens of state officials to the scene including Gov. Maurice J Tobin.
 Convinced that tinderdry wood- lands were a constant fire hazard, the governor closed all state forests except those in Berkshire county pending rain.
 Backfires were built in vain as the flames raging along a l0-mile front destroyed nine houses, 15 outbuild- ings and forced the evacuation of about 50 persons.

 Depleted Stocks
 To Idle Thousands Of Auto Workers
BY UNITED PRESS

Production men said today that millions of tons of steel might bl lost this month because of the coal mine strike now entering It's fourth week.
 The government, meanwhile, faced increasing pressure to find 6 basis for settlement of the walkout, which accounts for 100000 of the 660000 workers throughout the nation idle in labor disputes.
 Tn other labor developments, Q conference was scheduled at Pitts burgh in an attempt to settle Q strike at upper Michigan iron mines.
 Docks Picketed
 At Seattle the $5,000,000 canned salmon industry and Alaska ship ping were tied up by pickets who surrounded the Alaska steamship company's docks.
 The magazine steel said that the coal strike would-force large pro- ducers who have not yet materially reduced production to make cur- tailments soon. Producers which all ready have been affected may have to make still further reductions within a week or two, the magazine said.
 Meanwhile, thousands of workers in the automobile industry faced the threat of unemployment if steel stocks are depleted with continua- tion of the coal strike. Railroad coal stocks on half dozen major roads were reported becoming critical.
 Secretary of Labor Lewis B. Sch- wellenbach, who conferred with President Truman and John l.. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, (A.F.L0, Saturday, plan-- ned to meet with mine operators this week. He said he would ask both union and company represents atives to resume negotiations.

 Shortly after breakfast, MT. Tru- man and his party were transferred in a launch 1orn the presidential yacht Williamsburg to the FDR ln Hampton Roads, Va.
 The FDR and an accompanying flattop. the Princeton, both gave the President a 2l-gun salute. Greeter by Mitscher
 President Truman climbed brisk ly up the large carriers gangplank while SideboyS snapped to salute and the Shrill boatSwai1's pipes sounded. He was greeated on the hangar deck by Adm. Mark Nit scher. commander of the Eighth Fleet and the special task force, the captain of the ship and other hlgh ranking officers aboard. Other of ficers and enlisted men of the ships complement were drawn up at att tention on the vast hangar deck.
 The two carrieds, hoiSted anchor soon after the President went aboard the FDR and set out to sea for n1aneuvers off the eastern sea- board for two days.
 The maneuvers were designed to give President Truman a closeup show of how carrier planes turned back Japanese fleets in the his- toric naval battles of Midway, the Coral Sea and the Philippines.
 The Navy's fast fighters, dive bombers and tropedo planes were expected to simulate combat oper- ations as near as possible in the maneuvers while Mir. Truman watched from the admirai's bridge pon the carriers island.

 The President also probably will have an opportunity to see how it feels to be on a target ship when scores of planes attack 1t. A mock attack by planes on it's own ship usually constitutes one phase Of such carried laaneuvers.

Strike Plans
 Being Made At Risdon' s
Compony's Refusal To Arbitrote Main
 Issue Says Gorceou

Plans for strike against the Ris- don Manufacturing Company are being made, International Repre- sentative Ovide Garceau told The Democrat today. The company and the union settled their wage differ ences weeks ago but are still in dis agreement on other contract terms.
 The principal issue, said MT. Gar ceau, is the company's refusal to agree to arbitration of grievances. Several minor contract points are also in dispute, he said.
 During the early days of the strike against the Big 3" of the brass in- dustry, Risdon and the union came to an agreement on wages. However other contract points were left un- settled. At one point the union chal- ienged the company management to a public debate on the issues, but received no answer.
 Wages Secondary
 There are issues more important than wages" Mr. oarceau said to- day. "There is no lasting benefit for our members f they win a wage in. crease whose value is lost by refusal of the company to agree to other terms that would aid the workers.
 Risdon employs about 300 persons in it's Waterbury and Naugatuck plants.
 Union leaders may set a strike date at a meeting Friday night.

Reds PIeu Faces Defeat Before U.N.

 For Iran Probe
 Beinq Revived

New York, April 9. -(UP)-A movement for revival of an Austra- Han proposal for an United Nations Security Council investigation of the Iranian case gained ground to- day following an official British ob- servers report that Trans request for withdrawal of its complaint against Soviet Russia was made under strong Russian diplomatic pressure
 The British observer, Michael Foot, labor member of parliament, reported to his Government after returning from Iran that the only way to guarantee maintenance ot Iranian independence was to send an United Nations commission to investigate Soviet troop evacuation from that country
 That proposal struck a sym pathetic chord in council circles especially among the Australians who previously had submitted resolution calling for such an in- NeSJlSttltO1l DC4OAC JAAC tOSdAASAA NAAS posed of the case. This resolution, however, had failed to win Council approval.
 Farley Tomorrow
 When the Council meets tomor- row, it is almost certain to defeat the Russian demand that the Iranian question be removed from the agenda, a demand which on the surface had Trans support. The way for this action was cleared in report to the council by its committee of, experts which stated that the Iran case could be retained legally on the agenda despite the complaining nations request for withdrawal. Eight members of the committee adhered to that opinion with only Soviet Russia, Poland and France dissenting.

 Union Offiei0Is
 Pessin1istic
 On Strikes End
By RAYMOND J. FITZPATRICK


 The American Brass Com panys offer provides virtually no hope of settlement, union leaders said today. Company and union representatives will go into session at lO:30 a. m. tomorrow at The Elton, but the statements of 0. I. O. leaders made it plain that little will be accomplished at the opening session of renewed negotiation.
 "The American Brass Company has yet to make a genuine offer to end the strike" said John J. Driscoll, state C.T.O. secretary and a spokesman for the union conn mittee negotiating for workers in AB.C.s Waterbury, Torrington and Ansonia plants. Management in- sists on attaching so many stupid conditions to its se-called offers that they amount to nothing at all" {"
 John J. Mankowski, international representative of the MM.S.W" charged the company with want ing to play ball on its own rules, in its own way" He asserted that unless management grows up ana gets realistic 1t will find itself in an even poorer position with the intelligent public"
 Obviously working on the theory that there will be no early settle ment unless the company makes a better offer, the union this morn ing organized citizens committee in Torrington and proceeded With plans for Q meeting here tonight to form a similar group. Civic leaders and professional men have been invited to attend the local meet ing. which will be held at 7:l6 at Local 25i Hall, 96 Bank Street.
 Both MT, Driscoll and MT. Man kwoski said the company's proposa4 offered nothing new"
 Tn an advertisement published Pthis afternoon, the union charged the ccIslDassy with seeking to have employees barter away practically all their other rights" in exchange for the conditional IS l-2 cent ln- crease.
 The company, in announcements" made Friday and Saturday said It was willing to bargain on all points at issue, In answer to this, MT. DTS. coll asked today why the firm had been unwilling to agree to- the union proposal that the bonus issue be arbitrated. The War Labor Board has several times ruled that the company should pay over a million dollars to about 1900 swing shirt workers.
 Strike 75 Days Gold
 C.IO. leaders make no bones about their distrust of the manage lnent's proposal. Unless the counter proposal they make tomorrow IS ac- cepted by the company, they LOOK ahead to a further prolongatlon or the strike that has already been m progress for 75 days.
