Ultimatums Faced
Today By Strikers
(Continued From Page One;
said, he would employ the authority
of his office to open the harbor to
"the transaction of normal busi
ness," " sincerely hope this desirable re
sult (opening of the port) may be
accomplished by Interested parties,
or as a result of the efforts of the
president's board," he said, "but If
they fail then, by the exercise of the
power vested In me, that degree of
protection .will be afforded which is
necessary to complete opening of ur
waterfront."
A few hours earlier. Mayor Joseph
K. Carson of Portland issued an ulti
matum of his own In a letter to
Conrad Negstad, president of the
Portland local, International Long
shoremen's association. Carson In
formed Negstad strikers were Inter
fering with neutral persons, that
beat up" gangs were touring the
city and that the situation was be
coming Intolerable. He warned the
union head that today at noon, only
a "proper" number of pickets would
be allowed near the waterfront, that
number to be determined by the
police. In a second message to
Negstad, the mayor said Burgard
avenue, a street near the embattle
terminal No. 4 would be cleared of
pickets.
Meanwhile, 1900 non-union men
were reported to be working on the
Portland docks, but virtually no mer
chandise was moving to or from
them, since union truckmen had re
fused to haul It, At the same time.
1100 national guardsmen at Camp
Wlthycombe. near Portland spent
most of their time drilling.
Continuing their drive against
communists, police raided a meeting
of about 150 persons near the water-
front here last night and held four
men for Investigation. Five others 1
were questioned and released. The I
raiding officers said much radical !
literature and papers and about 10
banners were confiscated. One of the
men held was Dirk De Jonge, 43, j
one-time communist candidate for j
mayor of Portland.
Complaint 1b made that too many
dollars are not working, but we're
not to blame. The few that come our
way develop wanderlust.
Speaking of fan dances, It Is
