OPPOSED UNIONS
CALIFORNIAN CONFLICT COMMUNISTIC INFLUENCES ALLEGED LOS ANGELES, August 8. Four C. 1.0. unions, representing workers in the clothing, motor-car, rubber and shoe industries, voted in favour of withdrawing from Harry Bridges’s C. 1.0. and Industrial Union Council today. The workers also charged the council with working hand-in-glove with the Communist Party to the detriment of Labour. The four unions represent more than 20,000 workers in the Los Angeles area. In denouncing Bridges and his policies, the unions agreed to establish a C. 1.0. council independent of the Bridges group, and agreed unanimously to boycott Bridge’s State Labour convention scheduled to take place this month. | The charges against Bridges allege that he is acting as dictator, subordinating C. 1.0. interests to the Communism, maintaining control by fraud and appointing Communists to executive positions regardless of ability.
