took carefully aimed slap at West
Coast ship owners.
Our union, 10000 strong, went on
strike last Thursday It's going to be
a hard and long fight. but we're
going to win. We didn't want to
strike, but the other side pushed the
issue.
It's going to be tough fight
because the shipowners, through
subsidies. are getting the govern
ment to foot their bill," he said.
Over the last IL years, Mr. Bridges
declared, "shipowners have received
81, 700, 100000 in subsidies"
NO wonder it's tough to fight en-
Even the oil industry isn't as we'll
off"
Mr.. Bridges, introduced as the
most Investigated guy in America"

during the West Coast strike by say
ing that negotiations with manage
ment are at standstill at the mo-

Early Big.Four Talks
On Italian Colonies
Asked by Russia
BY the Assosioisd Press

LONDON, Sept. 6.-Russia has
called for q Big Four meeting
before Sept. Is to settle the fu-
ture of Italy's prewar colonies,
the Moscow Radio said today.
The broadcast said a formal re-
quest for session Of the Foreign
Ministers of the United States, Rus.
sia, Britain and France was sub.
mitted in notes delivered Saturday.
In Washington, the State Depart
ment said today 1t had received the
note and expected to have state
ment shortly.
The Italian peace treaty fixes Sep
tember IS as the deadline for an
agreement among the Big Four
powers on what is to be done about
Somaliland, Eritrea and Libia. In
the event there is no agreement
among the treaty states, the prob
lem goes to the United Nations for
settlement. The U. N. Assembly
meets in Paris September 81.
Difficulties In Solving Problem.
The Foreign Ministers considered
the problem at length last year and
then referred 1t to their deputies.
The deputies sent fact-finding COM
missions to Africa and held many
meetings, but finally gave up and
handed the whole question back to
their chiefs, without agreement, on
August 81.
Their final report set out some
conclusions, among which were re-
ported to be the following:
Russia wanted Somaliland, Eritrea
and Liba returned to Italy under O
United Nations trusteeship.
Britain called for incorporation
Of Eritrea into Ethiopia; division Of
Libya into three provinces of Tripo-
litania, the Fezzan and Cirenalca,
with independence for Cirenaica
after a period of British trusteeship.
France asked for the Fezzan and
was reported to have been given
British support.
Russia Charges Evasion.
United States views have remained
secret.
In Moscow, Soviet newspapers
yesterday published Tass dispatch
from Rome accusing the Italian
government of trying to evade full
flllment of ship deliveries to Russia
under the Italian peace treaty.
The dispatch said ships due the
Soviet Union had not been delivered
although Russia had agreed to make
her own repairs on SO to the As due
under the treaty 1t said France
had received ships due her and
charged that the Italians were being
supported by France. Britain and
the United States in their alleged
violations.
Informed Italian sources denied
any treaty violations They said
Italy was doing her best to deliver
the 80 ships in question and was
paying for the repair work needed.
