Gates of the main Boeing Aircraft company loomed today as a po tential trouble scene In the CIO's determined drive to lure the workmen away from the AFL's Aeronautical Mechanics' union. In defiance of an edict of the mayor and police chief, spokes men for the United Auto Work ers' union said large CIO force would accompany leaflet distributors to the plant at the change of shifts in late after noon. Harvey Jackins, acting leader of the CIO group, said a force of 2.000 CIO men would be mobilized outside the Boeing gates. Jackins was one of the num erous members of the AFL un ion who were expelled during recent international union "trials" on charges of encour aging dual unionism. Several others were expelled as the re sult of a union trial board's hearings on charges of commu nistic activity within the union. th vtscll Ctmnr boms Tuesday. Tn laditt nJoy4 th artaraooa.
