GO TO FRANCE,
DECLARES JUDGE

SAN FRANCISCO, July 6-tR-
Harry Bridges today lost in his
efforts to leave the United States
under bond and attend a world

The union offered to post
100000 bail to guarantee that
Bridges would be here for his trial.
Federal Judge Michael j. Roche
rejected the idea.
The government offered no OBJ

Honolulu where longshoremen have

to work actively with them in hope
of reopening Chinese ports and re-

Assistant US. Attorney Robert

such a thing at this time. 1t is not
