Washington reports a renewed effort to denaturalize and deport Longshoremen leader Harry Bridges as the Supreme Court voided 1950 San Francisco orders and a perjury conviction. Officials say a new civil action to strip Bridges of citizenship could unfold, with subsequent deportation actions possible, taking years amid appeals. A separate note from Singapore states three U.S. destroyers Trathen Black and Chancery are returning home after four months off Korea.
