. The examiner denied Margolis
reaaest for a more to Seattle, but
said that if future evidence
showed that a fair trial could not
be obtained in Tacoma, a new re
quest for a move would be con
sidered.
L. B. Sulgrove, an AFL union
attorney, described Margolis' re
marks as "just a red herring."
May Be Shortened
The hearing probably will last
several weeks.
After four hours of argument
and testimony, it was recessed
this afternoon until 9 a.m. Satur
day to permit CIO and AFL at
torneys and John P. Graham,
NLRB counsel, to study tran
scripts of previous hearings. If
they can agree on picking up ear
lier testimony, the current hear
ing may be shortened one to three
weeks.
The hearing, granted when the
AFL union agreed to terminate a
protest strike called last summer
against the 1938 ruling, is expect
ed to bring up the subject of com
munistic influences on unions.
Witnesses will include Harry
Bridges, president of the ILWU,
and Frank Foisie, president of the
Ship Owners association of the
Pacific, coast.

Farmers Union Is -Described
to Club
Libby Says Agricultural
People Trying to Work
out Own Problems
Aims snd services of the
Farmers Educational and Go-operative
union of America and es
pecially of the Oregon branch
were outlined before the Salem
Lions club yesterday noon by
Harley Libby of Jefferson, state
president.
"The Farmers Union doesn't
represent merely a particular
warehouse, oil station of live
stock company," Libby said. "I
should like to have you think of
this organization as an institu
tion composed of agricultural
people that is trying to work out
its own solution to its problems.":
The economic part of the un
ion's program is reflected by its
oil stations, warehouses and mar
keting facilities agencies set up
"out of pure necessity" that
"take care of the man whose out
put is so small he can't market
his produce by himself economi
cally," the speaker said.
Transportation, cooperat ires;
marketing and taxation draw a
major part of the interests of the
union's legislative department.
Among the most important
benefits, to Llbby's way of think
ing, he indicated, are those gain
ed by Farmers Union members
from the social and education
services, which bring people to
gether, promote exchange of
Ideas and neigh borliness and
teach farm youth civic responsi
bility, patriotism and abilities
such as to express itself intellir
gently.
