Eisenhower, Nixon
Back Reelection Of
Senator Ferguson

President Eisenhower and Vice
President Nixon last night un-
limbered their heavy artillery in
support of Senator Ferguson of
Michigan, chairman of the Sem
ate Republican Policy Commit
tee. for reelection next Novem-
ber.
The Presidents commenda-
ton was contained in a letter
presented to the Michigan SEN
ator by Vice President Nixon
at a testimonial dinner for SEN
ator Ferguson in Detroit.
Eisenhower Letter Cited.
Dear Homer:
Twelve years ago when you left
the Michigan bench to enter the
senatorial race of 1912. you sac
rificed personal inclinations and
preferences out of loyalty to your
party and duty to your country
With every one else who knows
you and your record in the
United States Senate - their
name must be legion - am
glad you did! All of us recognize
that the perpetuation of the
Republic, its increasing strength
and prosperity and world inf1u-
ence for good, are foremost in
your mind.
Please count me one of those
who tonight salute you as a
worthy son of Michigan and a
Senator In the great tradition of
the United States Senate.
Vice President Nixon said, in
his praise of Senator Ferguson
GAS chairman of the Republi-
can Policy Committee, he is an
indispensable member of the Eli
senhower legislative team. He is
the blocking back on a football
team. While he seldom gets pub
licity for what he does, the coach
knows that there isn't more
valuable man on the team"
Vigorous Pat on Back.
Gen. Eisenhower has said re-
peatedly he is not getting into
individual races in the coming
congressional campaign. This
does not, however, preclude his
giving Republican candidates a
vigorous pat on the back.
Republican victory in the
Michigan senatorial race is con-
Sidered essential if the Republi-

Longshoremen Back on Job,
Ending Costly 2o-Doy Strike

Government"
They were under heavy pres
sure also from rank and file
members who saw AFL men
gradually taking over their jobs.
Full Force Due Monday.
Saturday is normally light
work day on the piers, but the
backlog of cargoes provided jobs
for about half of the ports 20,-
900 or more longshoremen. The
full force was expected on the
job Monday.
The extra police detail as
signed to the piers for the last
month was kept on duty today,
but the atmosphere generally
was peaceful.
In Brooklyn 800 LILA men re-
porting for work learned that
AFL men who had replaced them
in recent weeks would be kept
on the job.
They protested to a hiring Of
flee of the New York-New Jersey
Waterfront Commission and were
told nothing could be done to-
day, but that efforts would be
made Monday to find jobs for
all.
Will Get Jobs Back.
Later. however, the AFL-ILA
issued a statement saying the
union was not interested in re-
placing any working longshore-
man in his job.
every longshoreman has the
full right to his old job" the
AF'L union said, land if any at
tempt is made to deny him the
right to work the AFL-ILA will
take immediate action"
The Commerce and Industry
Association predicted that part
of the world trade diverted from
New York in the last month
never would return.

Of Commerce estimated business

waterfront strike ended today
as wage-hungry longshoremen
returned to work.
The shipping industry esti-
mated the 29-day walkout cost
the port a half billion dollars
and expressed fear some of the
business diverted to other ports
never would return.
The National Labor Relations
Board has called for a new bar
gaining election in a move to
stabilize the waterfront situa-
tion, but no date has been set.
Leaders of the international
Longshoremens ASsociatio n

JurisdictiOnal Dispute.
The lila called the strike N
a jurisdictional dispute with the
rival american Federation of
Labor union tAFL-ILA). It
hoped to win recognition as bar
gaining agent before the AFL
made further inroads in its ef-
forts to control tho docks.
The lila had won an NLRE
election with the AFL-ILA, but
so many ballots were challenged
no decision was reached
Charges that the lila intimi-
dated voters brought an NLRB
hearing and subsequently a de-
cision invalidating the election.

edict as illegal, but said last

ing it almost impossible for them to
set up housekeeping.
But all this is being changed. An
eight-mile drainage canal is being dug
to the Teton River that will make it
possible to regulate the level of the
lake. The area will be managed by
the Montana Department of Fish and
Game. Public hunting grounds will
be provided with portion of the area
set aside as a waterfowl sanctuary.
Shadows will be diked off. This will
encourage the growth Of native aquatic
vegetation, providing good nesting
cover for the birds. Noxious vegeta-
ton will be controlled, and, where
needed, artificial planting will be done.
At the highest level Greenfield COW
cred about $500 acres. When the canal
is completed, in about year control
dams will maintain the lake and shall
low nesting areas at about a 5,OOO-acre
area. During periods of heavy run-off
it will be dropped to still lower level
to provide additional storage.
Protection for Farmers
The Fish and Game department has
purchased approximately $40 acres of
crop land adjacent to the lake and will
farm it on shares. Fish and Games
share will be left in the fields for the
ducks to feed on. In years when there
is a late harvest and an early migra-
ton of ducks farmers in the area have
had their grain fields practically
stripped by the birds. The proposed
plan should greatly alleviate the prob
lem. Officials of the Fish and Game
department also feel that farmer
sportsmen relations will be improved
by having an area set aside for the
hunters.
