Ing for that book." Yesterday, William Henry Howard, 49, Portland, Ore., ex-marine fire man, testified he didnt like the way Bridges tried "to grab control" i every maritime union on the coast Thomas Shoemaker, chief of gov ernment counsel, ssked how Bridges did this. "He worked lt by his stooges," Howard said. Asked what he meant by that, the witness said, "communist party stooges." Later he declared, "when a maritime man saya the party1 he means the communist party." Jargon Puzzles Attorneys Howard's waterfront Jargon some times puzzled the hearing-room, sometimes won chuckles. He waved a big hand with a tattooed Ameri can eagle on lt as he talked. He told of a meeting he had with Bridges in San Pedro, after the 1936 maritime federation convention there, when he quoted the Austral. Ian as saying: "Well, maybe I am a commie (communist) and If I am, maybe I'd be damned proud of lt." Howard said he quit the maritime federation because he didn't like the way It was run.
