Dimond re- garding the menace of the threat- ened shipping strike or lockout along the Pacific Coast. I have read the telegram which he is send- ing to you. I concur completely in Mr. Dimond's representations and conclusions. “A shipping strike or lockout at! this time would undo in great measure, if not wholly, the progress that has been made in this Terri tory since March, Ninteen Thirty- three.

Also Seeking Senatorship BOSTON, Ma: Sept. 26.—Thos.| C. O'Brien, who persxsled in building up a political career despite three; defeats in a row, is after two jobs this year. He's running for the Vice Presidency and the Senate at the same time, both on the Union party ticket. O'Brien, deep-chested six-footer, who once served as district attorney of Suifolk county, was a Democratic candidate for the U. S. Senatorial nomination before he was named running mate of Rep. William Lem- ke, Union party candidate for Presi- dent. After that, O'Brien merely changed his political listing. He was defeated for State Repre- centative in 1912 and 1913 and for Isoda clerk in Boston, where he was State Senator in 1914 but won an appointment to the State Board of Parole in 1913. Later he held other | President Roosevelt, was always too | three daughters and a son—in “the/ busy getting an eduication and work- ing outside of school hours to take part in varsity sperts. He worked nights as a baggage- man and brakeman on the Boston; and Albany railroad to get throughI Harvard college and Harvard MW‘ school. He went to work at 10 as a born, and up to the time he complet- ed his primary school education he was successively a bicycle repairman and odd jobs boy. } Railroad Counsel His work with the railroad pnved{\ the way for his later interest in railroad labor affairs. He has served as counsel for the Brotherhood 'of | Railroad Trainmen of America in; New England and of affiliated or- ganizations of engineers, firemen, telegraphers and sighalmen. He tried for the Senate in 1929 but was defeated by the incumbent| junior senator from Massachusetts, Marcus L. Coolidge. A life-long interest in economic problems, O'Brien says, caused him| to enter the third party movement.
