Bridges' Union Faces Ouster from CIO
Washington August 29 The CIO executive board voted 41 to 2 to oust Harry Bridges and his West Coast longshoremen's union from the CIO for following Communist party lines. Dissenters were J W Robertson and Hugh Bryson. Bridges and Bryson may appeal to the CIO convention in Chicago November 20, but the board’s action is likely to stand. The ouster also removes the 75,000 longshoremen and the merged fishermen and allied workers led by Joseph Jurich. A three man committee found Bridges adhered to Communist policies at the expense of CLO programs. Bridges is free on bail pending an appeal of a perjury conviction tied to naturalization papers.
