 ARE FOUGHT

FAIRBANKS. Alaska, Aug. 29-tH Army and Air Force troops at Ladd and Eielson Air Force Bases were engaged today in testing if they could stand off theoretical enemy who has held portions of Alaska since Aug. 15.
 The war games stretch to the edge of the Arctic Circle. The problem. as devised by military strat- egists. involves the capture of Nome, Galena and McGrath by airbourne forces of the enemy"
 Now the enemy is grouping his forces for an all-out push on the two strategic air fields. The role of the aggressor forces is being fill- ed by Army troops dressed in green uniforms and wearing special head gear. Parachute dummies dropped from the air represent enemy para troopers.
 Empires will decide the success or failure of both enemy and defending forces as the large-scale maneuvers continue.

One Hundred CI0 Workers Protest = 1900 Men
 Temporarily IdIed

YOUNGSTOWN, O., Aug. 29-R- One hundred CIO-United Steel workers walked off their jobs at Youngstown Sheet and Tube Co.,, today because U. s. Sen. Robert A. Taft (R-Ohio) visited the plant.
 They went back to work about two hours after Taft's automobile left the main gate, amid some boos and catcalls. All but about 10 of the workers returned to their jobs.
 Policemen stood by at the plant gate where the unionists gathered, but there was no disturbance. The Senator said some of them smiled at him when he waved to them on entering the plant for an hour-long tour.
 The walkout virtually halted fin ishing operations of the company's huge Campbell works.
 Although about 100 union mem bers walked off their jobs, about 1,5OO employees were idled.
 Senator Taft said some pickets smiled at him when he waved and many seemed glad to meet a notor- ious person" During an hour-long tour of the open hearth and mach inc shop divisions of the plant. he chatted and shook hands with some workers He made no speech.
 The protesting unionists are mem bers of the CIO United Steel Work CTS Union.
 Senator Taft is not a friend of organized labor and we are organiz- ed labor" one union member said.

 Bridges Talks

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 29-tA- Morris Watson, longshoremen's press representative, said today the unions locals would have to decide whether to hold stop work meetings to discuss their custer from the National CIO.
 There was no indication of such stoppage at noon, Watson said.
 Watson quoted from action taken at the recent caucus of the Inter- national Longshoremen's and Ware housemen's Union at North Bend Ore.
 He said the Caucus reaffirmed it's position denouncing the kangaroo trial given the ILWU by the Ma tional CIO and recommended that in event of expulsion by the CIO the locals stop work to consider the matter"
 We are far better off out than we ever were in," longshore offic- CTS commented on the National CIO action.
 The unions President, Harry Bridges, was not available for per- sonal comment However, head quarters of the ILWU issued a statement.
 In an interview last Friday, after he was released from jail on S25,- 900 bail, Bridges said:
 "The National CIO is all set to kick us out next Tuesday. That will save us lot of headaches, being free from that lousy outfit.

UASHINGTON-C Changes Some people around the White House have been angling to get Secretary of State Acheson and Secretary of Defense Johnson out of the cabinet, but the angling hasn't come from MT. Big himself The other day a White House as- sistant approached Senator Styles Bridges of New Hampshire with the idea that he become Secretary of State. The proposition was hedged with such reservations as I'm only talking for myself, you understand, but" {. :. Bridges said he wasn't interested . undoubtedly the assistant told the truth when he said he was only talking for him. self, because Truman invariably freezes his cabinet members when they are under attack What bothers him most is the fact that these two particular cabinet mem- bers are at each others throats. You can't talk ten minutes with Louey Johnson's staff-or some times even with Johnson himself without hearing a crack against the Secretary of State.
 Ambition Burns Eternal-A friend was talking to Secretary of Defense Johnson. He said: MT. Secretary, a lot of people are talking about you for President"
 "Oh, I'm not interested in that" said LOuey condescendingly.
 A minute later, however, he asked:

Senator Taft Causes WaLkout at Steel Planl
Longshoremen's Union Of Bridges Is Expelled af (|0
 Executive Board Meetinq

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29 - R - The CIO executive board today ex- pelled the last two of II unions it marked for purge year ago on charges of hewing to the Commu- hist party line.
 They were the West Coast Long, shoremen's and Warehousemen's Union, headed by Harry Bridges, and the Marine Cooks and Stew ! ards, headed by Hugh Bryson. Bridges union was kicked out | first by 41 to 9 vote. The dis senting votes came from J. w. Robertson, Vice President of Bridges union, and Bryson. Next Bryson's union was busted, fl to l, with Bryson casting the only opposition vote. Bridges and Bryson could appeal the executive board action to the CIO convention in Chicago Nov 20, but it is highly unlikely that the convention would upset the board S move.
 The convention last year author ized the removal of all leaders and unions found to be following Com munist policy.
 LOngshoremen Custer Included in the custer of the 75,000 longshoremen was the re- moval of the Fishermen and Allied Workers, headed by Joseph Jurich, of Seattle, which had merged two months ago with the Bridges union. A three-man committee investi- gated Bridges activities of the past several years and decided that he had adhered to Communist party policies at the expense of CIO pro- grams. The committee, recom- mending custer, told the executive board that the Communists had been highly successful in control ling the ILWU.
 Bridges, who is free on bail pend- ing an appeal on perjury convic- tion, did not know how to defend himself at the executive board meeting. Robertson represented him.
 Bridges was convicted of lying about Communist party affiliations in applying for naturalization pa- pers.
 8 Unions Expelled
 In the past, Bridges has resisted removal from the CIO, and asserted he was merely following good trade union tactics.
 The CIO already has expelled eight unions charged with following the Communist line at the expense of CIO policy. Another, the United Furniture Workers, cleared itself in convention by getting rid of offic- CTS charged with Communist sym pathies.
 The house cleaning began 10 months ago at the CIO convention in Cleveland.

Cinder Block Gains In Use
AS Home Building Material

American Builder says the dwell
ling is practically fireproof be-
cause of its cinder block siding.
Fire-resistant asphalt shingles,
which cannot readily be kindled
into flame by flying sparks, are
used for the roof.
The cinder block siding was
given a cement stucco finish. Then
the walls were painted with a
waterproofng compound to pre-
vent harmful condensation OF
water.
On the interior, floors are sup
ported by steel beams instead of
conventional wood joists. The steel
adds to the fireproofing. Floors are
