Increasing the tension, union after union on both sides of the bay were reported falling in line with general ' strike plans, most of them by delegating power for such action to central "strategy" committees. The "strategy" com mittee of the San Francisco cen tral labor council reported it may announce a decision tomorrow. Fifteen major and independent oil companies, whose delivery trucks are at a standstill, organ ised a petroleum emergency com mittee. An acute gasoline short age is likely by tomorrow, the committee said. Meat, vegetables and other food supplies also came In for atten tion as grocery stores and mar kets met a rush of customers seeking to lay In aapslies. A meat truck attempting to run the block ade was overturned in downtown San Francisco. Vegetable trucks were stopped on the highways leading- to the city and the drivers warned it was dangerous to pro ceed.

A petition for recall of Mayor Joseph Carson was presented at the city hall late today by the Workers' Recall league. However upon adtlce of tho city auditor petition filing was deferred until Saturday. Recall was proposed in the pe tition upon grounds that Mayor Carson has "broken every pre election promise, has not reduced taxation, has demoralised the po lice force and encouraged violent use of public docks during the longshoremen's strike." L (Coaitaaca from pc IT the cannery but was given a cold reception. "I arrived there Just about an hour after the shooting oc curred," he explained. "They didn't give me much hope." There was a rumor last night that the Oregon Pulp and Pa per company's plant here was short on fuel oil, but Karl W. Helnleln, resident manager, said lack of oil would not hinder op erations since only hog fuel is used ' in the summertime. Opera tions of the mill, however, is on a day-to-day basis due to tho shipping tie-up, he said. Three gasoline distributors were last night reported definite ly to be without stocks of motor fuel, and others snpplies in some cases were low. Tanks of at least three service stations -were said to be dry. Distributors were planning to form an emergency committee to day to pool their stocks and pos sibly to attempt to secure sup plies of gasoline by rail direct from the refineries. One leading distributor has been shipping gas in by rail for several weeks without raising the wholesale price. Other distribu tors, however, declared that gen eral rail shipping of gasoline would cost three to four cents a gallon more and might result in a rise in prices. Several service stations have had no third structure gasoline for several days. One station last night was reported to have as its only remaining motor fuel, 250 gallons of the low grade gas. While one distributor stated he had enough gasoline on hand "for several more days," others commented that there was "very much of a shortage," "some very low," "supply definite for Fri day only." Rail shipment of fuel oil here would cost 4 cents per gallon additional, or would nearly dou ble the retail price. There are several boatloads in Portland storage tanks but truckers are unable to get at this supply, a Salem retailer declared. Supplies from Marshfield have been block ed. A small supply of diesel oil re maining here, sufficient to last only a day or two," Is being sold in place of regular burner oil, .one distributor declared. Some apartment houses were said not to be "stranded" but "about out" of oil, which at this time of year is used mainly for heating water. tJBoe O O ----' ,- MMessssaassaasWansnw " J 4 .

July 12-(P) -The SDokesman-RevIew said democratic party approval was required of applicants for work with the reclamation de partment on the Grand Coulee dam project. R. F. Walter, chief eneineor of the U. S. reclamation service, the paper said, has sent the fol lowing notice to all applicants: "The secretary of the interior requires that each recommenda tion submitted to him for pointment to a non-civil service position in the bureau of recla mation be supported by clearance from some aosronrlata rvfffHiil in the democratic party organiza tion." This "clearance." as the naner quotes the Walter letter, would come from either the chairman of the democratic county commit tee, the chairman of the demo cratic state committee or the chairman of the democratic cen tral committee. County Chairman Elwrn Dan iel, the paper said. exDlalned that the "clearance svstem" was instituted because too many re publicans had obtained appoint ments and because tho republican party, when in nowr. had . pointed only republicans. 23rd Psalm Has Comfort at End for Boy Killer STATE PRISON Florenea.
