BY
$500 Reported by Solicitors
, Boys Mow Lawn to Get
Money for Contribution

the local quota, pad been raised
by noon today by workers who

have been reached.
Indicative of the fine response
the public was showing solicitors
was noted In the case of two
small, very small, boys. Want
Ing to do their part, they mowed
lawn for BO cents and prompt
ly turned the money over to
Capt Charles Cox of the Salva
tion army, secretary of the Med
ford committee. In another
ease, an aged man left 25 cents
t the chamber of commerce
with the remark that "I'd like
to give more, but that's all I
have.

GAVE DEPOSITION
WHILE ON SPREE
Cannalonga Changes State
ments Not Sure of Any
thing, He Tells Defense
San Francisco, June 3. (.IP)
Irate attorneys defending labor
leader Harry Bridges in de
portation proceedings directed a
protracted barrage of cross-ex
amination today at Morris Can
nalonga, will o' the wisp wit
ness who lias made signed state
ments for both prosecution and
c Tense, but who now appears
to be on the government side.
Yesterday Cannalonga appear
ed in a surprise move by the
government as a rebuttal wit
ness, and repudiated a deposi
tion he had given defense at
torneys In Portland, Ore., early
in May. The deposition retract
ed statements previously made
to the federal bureau of Investi
gation branding Bridges com
munist. '
He was drunk when he made
the deposition, he said.
Celebrated Birthday
Richard Gladstein, defense at
torney present in Portland when
Cannalonga made his pro-defense
statements, took the wit
ness over and over the ground
of that mee'.ing, seeking to win
an admission the retraction had
been In good faith.
But Cannalonga Insisted he
was so drunk May 3 and 4 he
was "not sure of anything."
May 3, Saturday, was his birth
day and he began "hitting the
bottle" in the morning. The
next day he downed two quarts
of mm, he said.
With much waving of arms
he gave such vague and indefi
nite answers to Gladstein that
Trial Examiner Charles B.
Sears occasionally took a hand
in the questioning. But all he
could get was, "Well, you see,
your honor, it's like I told you.
Things were very hazy."

While there was far from a bull
stampede In today's stock mark
et, recovery forces continued to
extend their positions on var
ious fronts.
.Transfers of around 600,000
shares were the largest in about
month.
Stimulants were found in
mounting defense spending and
the belief that a certain amount
of Inflation was likely because
of climbing prices of goods and
almost daily wage hoists.
