Wilmington dispatch reports more than 1,000 workers in nine boatyards from Terminal Island to San Pedro face a possible strike after talks between Jabor and management failed.

Ruling on Bridges Citizenship Awaited by Court
Federal Judge Hamlin heard arguments in the government bid to revoke tarry Bridges's citizenship. If denied, the civil suit would proceed with a trial by a single judge, not a jury. Bridges, head of the International Longshoremen and Warehousemen's Union, faces a long-running case tied to alleged Communist Party ties and a prior 1950 conviction reversed by the Supreme Court on statute of limitations grounds.
