BUS, STREET GAR DRIVERS
 ON WALkoU1
Service Halted in Los An- geIes : Looks Like
 Shriners Must Walk
(By the Associated Press)

tDy flilt fAoSoCidJCQ IICJoJ
 Bus and street car service in Los Angeles was halted by strike of 4,000 operators today as the city prepared for an influx of some 100000 Shriners for their national convention.
 Mayor Fletcher Bowron appealed for l5-day truce during the Shrine convention which opens next week. But representative of the AFL Transportation Union walked out of last minute negotiations early to- day.
 There are not enough taxicabs in Los Angeles to handle the con- vention crowds. The city's transit lines normally carry million riders day.
 The striking union has demanded 20 cents an hour wage hike for the opeators, most of whom now earn $147. The company did not an- nounce any offer.
 Milk Strike Continues
 The milk strikes in Western Penn sylvania and Washington, DC, continued, as did the CIO Ameri- can Newspaper Guild walkout against the New York World Telegram and Sun.
 The publishers association of New York City halted contract ne- gotiations with the local AFL print CTS union and charged it with a deliberate violation of it's contract by refusing to cross CIO Guild picket lines at the struck newspaper. Walkout on Newspaper
 Today was the fourth day of the strike by about 400 news and busi- ness employees of the World-Tele- gram and Sun, an evening news paper with a circulation of more than 6O0,0O0 daily
 Employer insistence on arbitra- tion of unresolyed issues and striker insistence on retroactivity for pay hikes blocked settlement of the strike of 3,250 AFL dairy work CTS in Pittsburgh and seven sur rounding counties. The strike, start ing it's second week, has cut off all except emergency deliveries to t..e 2,300,0OO residents in the area. A similar week-old strike in Washington brought proposal to- day by Rep. Miller tR-Neb) for Congressional action to 'abolish the milk monopoly in the nations capital.

 ing, Censored Reports
(By the Associated Press)

Peru's military government claimed to have the situation in hand in riot-torn Arequipa today but army broadcasts indicated that fighting still might be threatening or continuing.
 Censorship of news from the big southern city was lifted yesterday but reimposed last night. One of- ficial radio broadcast said more than 120 persons had been killed and 300 wounded in the revolt.
 The government claimed all rebel leaders have been arrested. It blamed the uprising on political organization called Accion Civica (MBWIC Action), Communists and members of the outlawed leftist Apra party.
 The leader of Accion Civica is Gen. Ernesto Montague. He was to have run against Gen. Manuel Odria, former president of Peru's military cabinet. in the July 2 Presidential elections. But the Ma tional Electoral Board rejected Montague as a candidate last week, leaving Odria the only one in the field.
 The government said the leader of the revolt is Francisco J. Mostajo, who was rejected by the Electoral Board as vice. presidential candi- date on Montagne's ticket.

 IN BRIDGES
 CASE STARTS
Government Motion Is Granted for Move in Re-
 vocation of Citizenship

SAN FRANCISCO, June 16--tR--- The government today advanced another step in it's move to deport CIO Longshore Leader Harry Bridges.
 Federal Judge George B. Harris granted a government motion to revoke Bridges citizenship. gained in 1945, because the Australian born labor leader recently was con victed of perjury.
 Judge Harris then directed that the government draw up an order to revoke Bridges citizenship.
 Assistant US. Attorney Robert McMillan went to work at once preparing the decree. He said it would take him all day but 1t would be ready for Judge Harris signature Monday
 Vincent Hallinan, attorney for Bridges. said we contend Judge Harris has no jurisdiction because of the appeal now pending from the original conviction" He said he didn't plan to appeal today's order; that If the defense succeeds in obtaining a reversal of the original conviction. that would nullify to- days order.''
 McMillan wouldn't comment on questions about the effective date of the citizenship revocation.
 Bridges left by plane for Chicago at about the time Judge Harris handed down his order. The perjury conviction was based on sworn statement in his l945 citizenship hearing that he wasn't a Communist.
 Bridges is under sentence to live years in prison. He has appealed.
 In his memorandum opinion Judge Harris wrote:
 Bridges stands before this court convicted felon. Whansa defendant is convicted, the presumption of in nocence vanishes and heavy pre- sumption of guilt supplants it.
 Under the circumstances he should not be privileged to retain the fruit of his illegality.

Mt(ARThY TOUR OF HOUSING PAYS OFF,
 AT A BUCK A WORD

COLUMBUS. O., June l6-+h-A rough word count today showed US. Sen. Joseph R. Mccarthy tR- Wis} received more than $l a word for writing special article for the defunct Lustron Corp.
 The article--"Wanted A Dollars Worth of Housing For Every Dollar Spent'-covered 37 pages of 94- page Lustron booklet entitled How to Own Your Own Home"
 The article contained about 89OO words. Lustron paid Senator Mo- Carthy slo,000 for it. s
 t'I just sold to the highest bidder" said the Wisconsin Republican.
 McCarthy's writing does not set any precedent. Many Congressmen and other high government officials have written magazine articles and books and have received payment for them.
 Photostat copies of papers filed III O.o. llotIlCt OOdf0 oAao" A'~S Carthy was guaranteed 10 cents for each copy of the promotion booklet sold up to 100000 copies. Lustron sold the booklet for 35 cents. Records showing total sales have not been made public.
 In brief introduction, Senator Mccarthy says the material tor the Lustron article was gathered during a 3O.000-mile tour of the nation as vice chairman of joint Congress sional committee Investigating hous- ing.
 This led Clyde Foraker. court appointed receiver for the govern ment-subsidized housing plant. to call the article "unethical."
 Lustron borrowed 37.500, 900 from the Reconstruction Finance Cor poration and REC threw it into re- ceivership when the concern de- faulted on payment of S36.500. 900. The plant now is in legal tangle in US. District Courts in Colum- bus and Chicago.

 WASHINGTON - Discovery that COP Senators Brewster of Maine and Ferguson of Michigan tapped the telephone wire of California airplane manufacturer Howard Hughes has had two interesting aftermaths.
 l. Charles Dillon, who this col umn revealed had made a record ing of his conversation with NEG vice president Frank Mccall, has now been asked to resign as head of the defense departments radio section. Apparently two Republi- can senators can get away with tapping telephones and planting dictaphones, but a bureaucrat can't.
 2. The Senate has in its files an interesting report on Frank BielaSki, the wire-tapper in the Amefasia case in which a Rhode Island grand jury accuses him of practicing highly un-American ac- tions" and of "emulating the vic- ious Gestapo of Germany and the abhorrent OGPU of Russia"
 The full Senate report on Biel- aski on the Rhode Island wire tapping is signed by Republican Sen. Chan Gurney of South Dakota
