April 6 "f The CIO Longshoremen s "n""i : lined up today behind their fiery: leader. Harry Bridges, in nis nunt to reverse his conviction on charges he lied about former communist party ties. A union caucus meeting here branded Bridges' conviction "a miscarriage of justice" and pledg. eu mm iuii ami ' nancial and moral support in the legal battle ahead. "We maintain the verdict was based on testimony by paid in formers and self admitted per jurers and is a miscarriage of iustlce." the caucus said in a res olution adopted yesterday after; lour hours of debate. "We fledge our full and un qualified financial and moral sup port to our international officers until victory is won," the resolu tion continued.

The three convicted men must appear next Monday in San Fran cisco for sentencing. Their first move for reversal of the verdict also will be heard on Monday by Federal judge George B. Harris. The defense will seek arrest of sentencing and a new trial. Bridges vigorously denied yes terday that he ever was a com munist. A federal jury, however, decided that he lied when he swore he was not and never had been a communist when he ob tained his citizenship. The caucus of about 100 dele gates from the west coast and British Columbia was just as adamant as Bridges in branding the trial a "frameup." Both Bridges and the caucus Indicated that the conviction would not produce any tleup of 'west coast shipping by the 75,000 man union.

After driving the friends home, he drove up the lonely Fish ranch road, high In the hills behind Berkeley, over Miss Humphrey's protests. t "I didn't want to hit her, I Just wanted to strangle her," he said.

I Tough Winter Hits Swans Ketchikan. Alaska 'U" Alas- ka's little band of rare trumpeter swans was hard-pressed by cold and deep snow this winter. Chester Bull, a homesteader, said he had found the bodies of several swans which apparently starved to death. The remainder of the birds were so weak from lack of food that they were un able to fly when approached on foot. Bull and a trapper friend brought several birds back to Bull's cabin in a rowboat. The starving birds were too wild to be fed in captivity and had to be turned loose on their snow covered feeding grounds again. Shortly after the small flock of swans was discovered at Kaigani Harbor, strict laws were passed by the territorial legislature to protect them. Bull estimated the flock to number about 80 birds last fall. Trie uncounted winter kill indicates that the protected flock is not over the hump to as sured survival yet. Other flocks of once-common trumpeter swans are found at Red Rock lake refuge In Mon tana, Yellowstone national park and in northern interior British Columbia. NAMESAKES MEET Salt Lake City U Don W.

A woodshed and garage building, valued at approximately S700, was a total loss, and the back of the house, about 40 feet from the fire, was damaged by the intense heat. The flames were extinguished five minutes fter the department arrived, but the fire had reduced the building to chaired rubble.
