The produce district here, patrolled by national guardsmen, was a scene of Intense activity. Auto ferry boats carried full loads of trucks bearing fresh produce and as soon as they arrived they were dispatched to various parts of the city to supply grocery stores. So many scores of laden trucks ar rived at Oakland that no attempt was made to count them. Trucks without police convoys far outnumbered those with escorts. "Wo will have gas soon." service station operators promised motorists as tank trucks began service. Vandeleur said teamsters were still on strike with sanction for working given only those who operated gaso line trucks, along with Ice wagon, milk and bakery wagon drivers. But chers and culinary workers returned to their jobs. Taxlcab drivers, members of the Chauffeurs' union, were to meet late today to consider returning to work. Officials of large taxi companies re ported that a "favorable vote was anticipated."
