BRIDGES REPLIES
TO
SAN rPANCTSCO. Oct. . (API
An assertion by Gov. Charles H. Mar
tin of Oregon that evidence had been
"cinched" In that state showing
Harry Bridges, west const C. I. O.
director, to be a communist brought
a reply today from the labor leader
that the chief executive had fallen
for a -ruse. ,
Martin In a speech last night at
Klamath Falls said he had urged
President Roosevelt to have Bridges
arrested and deported as an unde
sirable alien.
Referring to the asserted "cinch
ing" of the evidence, Martin added:
"Now we'll see whet will happen."
The Martin speech followed by only
a few days a Washington annoxince-
ment that Immlgr .L.on authorities
were Investigating charges against
Bridges, who Is an , Australian but
who has renewed efforta to obtain
American citizenship.
Bridges In a statement said a
speech recording device had been
"planted" In his hotel room while
he was attending the recent con
vention of the maritime federation.
and that "sneak thieves" entered his
quarters and went through his be
longings. He said he waa aware of the
planted" device long before he re
ported It to the hotel management.
We called In some newspaper
men." said Bridges' statement, "and
spent an evening of good, clean fun
staging a one-act play which must
have given the snoopers plenty to
talk about. We called In the news
paper men so we would have plenty
of witnesses.
We are In the unique position of
having written both the words and
music for the song that the governor
sings."
Bridges said he would be "greatly
Interested In any so-called proof
touching on my citizenship which
Oovernor Martin may have in his
possession. We have affidavits
In our possession which conclusively
prove attempt have been made to
have men perjure themselves.
"If Governor Martin would spend
only a small portion of his time
seeing that the national labor rela
tione act la enforced In his state his
labor dlfflcultlea would vanish over
night." A. P. L. forces in Oregon have been
boycotting lumber produced by C.

ON LABOR ISSUE
CINCINNATI, Ohio, Oct. 0. (UP)
The threat of a bitter floor tight
over social and economic question
hung over the general Episcopal con
ventlon tonight after open discussion
of the church League for Industrial
Democracy was barely averted.
Discussion of the league'a activi
ties has been confined to the cor
ridors, although earlier in the day
a letter bitterly denouncing the or
ganization was distributed In tha
home of bishops and the house
of deputies by the church laymen
association. It waa signed by Merwyn
K. Hart, New York City.
The threat of the controversy
breaking Into the open occurred
when Samuel F. Houston, Philadel
phia financier, offered a resolution
In the house of deputies to exclude
from the convention program the
activities of orRanl7Atlons "expound
ing special theories."
A motion waa presented to bring
the subject up for Immediate discus
sion, but It was defeated and the
resolution waa referred to commit
tee. Rev. Jamee Freeman, blah op of
Washington. D. C, Inferentlally
charged the new deal waa attempt
ing to eure America's economic Ilia
by methods "wholly alien to our
system and long continued practice-
"We would restore confidence and
effect salutary changes In our polit
ical and Industrial systems through
hastily conceived legislation." he
charged.
Cannon Charles T. Brfdgeman of

ties that the proposed Brltlah par
