BACKGROUND— After bitter 83-day strike in 1934, in which seven men were killed, Pacific Coast maritime unions won right to control hiring of labor after strike had culminated in three-day mass walkout of union labor in San Francisco Bay cities. Agreement with employers ex- pired September 30 of this year. Since then workers and employers have been unable to agree on fore mers’ “fundamental” demands de- spite arbitration eflorts of Assistant Labor Secretary Edward F. Mc- Grady, who played tmportant role in effecting peace two years ago. BY the Assoclated Press. Pacific Coast shipping was para- lyzed today by the strike of 37,000 water front and seafaring workers members of seven federated unions. Possibility arose the strike would spread to Eastern and Gulf ports | tying up virtually all American ship- | ping. Randolph Meriwether, Western sec- | retary of the Marine Engineers’ Bene- ficial Association, predicted: “It will be a national strike. We have received hundreds of telegrams from ports all over America pledging support.” | President Joseph Ryan of the In- | ternational Longshoreman’s Associa- tion, who had said the association must support the West Coast de- mands, hurried to his New York office to study the situation. In New York a port-wide “sitdown” | strike in sympathy with Pacific Coast | workers failed to materialize at noon, | as announced early this morning, but | the Seamen’s Defense Committee said | & meeting of union ship labor would | be held tonight to vote on a general | strike for the Eastern Seaboard. The newly created maritime com- mission, which has jurisdiction over shipping companies and seagoing unions, pored over reports but had no comment. Chief hope for a quick settlement lay in the commission. About 120 ships immediately were tied up in Pacific ports. The number ‘Wil be increased greatly with the re- turn of ships at sea. Hiring Control Is Issue. The strike was called when unions and steamship companies were unable . to agree on half a dozen major points in proposed new labor contracts. Pri- mary stumbling block was the desire of each group to control hiring of ‘union men. Effects of the strike spread im- mediately. Four Grays Harbor, Wash,, lumber mills announced they would shut down today. San Fran- cisco warehousemen called an 8 am. (Pacific standard time) strike, crip- | pling ice, cold storage, feed and mill- | ing plants. ‘The strike came at about the peak | of Western shipping, unofficially es- timated at a $1,000,000-a-day busi- ness. Extra police were assigned water- front duty at all Western ports—400 each in Los Angeles and San Fran- eisco. WEST COAST CRIPPLED. 37,000 Workers Quit Jobs in Maritime Strike.

R. A, A A A, executive powers and unemployment, “There can be no confidence while this administration remains in power,” the Kansas executive declared, reas- serting his belief in “the American system of free enterprise.” The Republican nominee, speaking last night in New York's Madison Square Garden, noted that President Roosevelt closes his campaign there | tomorrow night. The garden's 18,500 seats were filled and officials there es- timated 1,500 were standing. The crowd, shouting and waving flags, heard the Kansan close his !

FATE OF LANDON 5 BELIEVED HELD BY NEW YORK VOTE Election Results Can Either Make or Break Governor, Is Opinion. CLAIMS OF DEMOCRATS REGARDED FANTASTIC Base Hopes on Increased Regis- tration in Metropolis—G. 0. P. Again Looks to Upstate. BY G. GOULD LINCOLN. Staff Correspondent ot The Star. NEW YORK, October 30. — New York, the Empire State, with 47 elec- toral votes, can break or make Lan- don, the Republican presidential can- didate. Gov. Landon made his final bid for support in the State yesterday, cli- maxed by an address in Madison Square Garden. He received a tre- mendous ovation from the huge crowd which jammed the garden. He left behind him a challenge to President Roosevelt to tell the American people what he intends to do about the N. R. A, the A. A. A. and about his spending program. The President is due to speak in the same spot on Saturday night. Democratic claims of victory in this State range so high as to be almost fantasticc. They are based on one thing—the vast increase in registra- tion in Greater New York, territory that is traditionally Democratic. The increased registration is aproximately 560,000, with a total registration for | the city of 2,900,000. Prior to the announcement of the registration figures, Republican hopes were high and the Democrats obvious- ly nervous. Almost any one can re- member back to those June days when President Roosevelt and the | Democratic leaders from all over the | country were pleading with Gov. Leh- man to seek re-election again—for the purpose of bolstering Roosevelt in New York State. Now All Is Optimism, But now the Democratic high com- | mand, from “Jin” Farley down, is claiming that Roosevelt will carry the | city by 1,000,000 votes and the State | 8s a whole by 700,000 to 800,000. Roosevelt may carry the State indeed, the preponderance of opinion is that| he will do so—but the margin prob- | ably will be far smaller, perhaps only a couple of hundred thousand votes. | The Republicans insist that Landon | has a real chance to carry the State and mention 250,000 as their prob- able plurality. They would be de- lighted if it turned out they had won by 10,000, or any figure at all. PFour years ago Herbert Hoover lost New York State to President Roosevelt by 596,996. The Democratic majority in New York City was 871,120. The Republicans carried “up-State”—all outside of the greater city—by 274,124. There are two or three factors in the present situation which should be taken into consideration. Upstate New York has turned back to the chub-| lican party with & rush. There is| some reason to believe that the Re- publican lead upstate may run as high as 600,000 or even 750,000. That is the kind of a lead Republicans used to have in upstate New York in 1920, 1924 and 1928.

MAJOR BATTLE BEING FOUGHT. Government Reopens Drive to Break Rebel Threat on Madrid. TORREJON DE LA CALZADA, Spain, October 30 (#).—Government commanders rushed fresh troops to the front today as Madrid defense forces their flerce assault on the Fascists in the second day of one of the war’s bloodiest battles. Revitalized by the capture of three insurgent-held towns almost on the outskirts of the capital, the Socialist army battled in the hollow of the Fascists’ v-shaped line in an effort to force it back or break through it. ‘Torrejon de Velasco, 15 miles of Madrid on the arterial highway to To- ledo, was the next objective. Shouts of “forward to victory” echoed through the government lines in the dawn hours as battle-fired troops sprang to the charge. Airplanes, tanks and anti-aircraft artillery joined the charge as officers rallied their men with shouts to “save Madrid and drive the Fascist hirelings back to Porfugal.” Gunners lay down .a barrage of steel shrapnel, with the first light of morning, from cannon brought for- ward in pace with the government ad- vance.

While producers resolved to de- | mand higher prices for their milk— marketing agreement or no marketing agreement—the Agricultural Adjust- ment Administration today decided to appeal at once from the District the agreement, the dairy business here, is uncone stitutional, At the close of a 4-hour session in the office of the dairy section of the A.

Dairies here have announced that such an in- | crease for the producer would mean a 1-cent-a-quart rise to the consumer. However, opposition came from Donald Montgomery, A.

The Richmond dealer, Montgomery | said, sells milk for 13 cents, but pays the farmer 7.8 cents, while the New York dealer. whose store price is 13 cents, pays 8 cents, and has a margin {of only 5 cents. The margin of the Philadelphia dealer, whose sales price is 12 cents, is 5.5 cents, and of the Boston dealer, also a 12-cent milk city, 5.6 cents. ‘The association’s contracts with the four dairies, which expired when the agreement became effective Sep- Edgar Hoover, F.

Until the justice enters his decree, however, the A. A. A. said, there will be doubt whether the injunction is sweep- ing or apolies solely to the 13 plaintiffs. However, even if only the 13 are af- fected, the A. A. A. may suspend the agreement to prevent their having an unfair advantage over the other 1,300 farmers supplying Washington's milk. Justice Luhring said the marketing agreement is invalid because its “base~ rating plan and price-fixing provisions control, or attempt to control, pro- duction of milk in Maryland and Vir- ginia.” He added: “The question here is not an open one. It has been settled by the Su- preme Court of the United States. Congress may not under the come merce clause, regulate the produce tion of milk or any other farm prod- uct.” The A. A.
