 WEA members have refused to handle army cargo so long as it means dealing with the CIO long shore union. whose chiefs have not signed non- Communist affidavits under thes Taft Hartley law. CIO National President Phillip Murray urged Army Secretary Royall in Washington yesterday to , use such firms as Griffiths and Sprague, rather than hire it's own stevedores outside the union. Mur- ray. in letter to the Secretary, also urged appropriate measures to compel all steamship companies to observe their contracts to move army cargoes.
