Front Strike Ends
After 13 Weeks
SAN FRANCISCO, i#*)—A 13
week waterfront strike which has
affected both the San Francisco
and Los Angeles harbor areas
ended Friday midnight as CIO j
dock foremen withdrew picket
lines and longshoremen proceed
ed to work ships under a federal
referee's mandate.
Arthur C. Miller, new maritime
referee for he Pacific Coast, or
dered an end to the work stoppage
late Friday. His decision, in effect,
agreed with the claims of the wa- ,
terfront employers’ association.
Harry Bridges, head of the CIO
longshoremen's and warehouse
men’s union, told Miller his men
would comply, although they felt
the order “in error.’’
Miller ruled that the foremen’s
union, formed within the structure
of the ILWU, is not autonomous,
and that the ILWU was violating
its contract by respecting fore
men’s picket lines.
The foremen (walking bosses*,
claiming autonomy within the
ILWU, have been on strike since
July against the Luckenbach
Steamship company and the Outer
Harbor Dock and Wharf company
of Los Angeles. They have de- ;
manded that the employers recog
nize the ILWtJ as their bargaining
agent, but the employers contend
ed . they are supervisory employ
ees.
" I
I The employers claimed that un- !
der the Taft-Hartley law they
, need not bargain with supervisory
employees.
Sworn to and subscribed before

Base Sidelights
We wish to welcome T/Sgt. Er
nest S. Warren, Cpl. William W.
Jackson, Pfc. John J. Francis and
Pfc. Whitt W. Hatcher to the 10th
Rescue Sq and to Nome, Alaska.
We suffered a heavy loss by the
departure of Pfc. Gayle W. Tuck.
Pfc. Tuck was transferred to Mad
igan General Hospital, Tacoma,
Wash. Some want to stay and
some want to go and that leaves
everything in an uproar, since the
new one year deal came out.
There isn’t a loop hole in it any
where fellows, so guess you will
have to go, all of you.
A large part of Hq. Det. has
suddenly sprouted wings and
taken to the air. Given their
choice of a 'branch of service,
many of the men chose the Air
Corps. The new fledglings are
now members of the 53rd Airways
Detachment. Hq. Det., once the
second largest unit on the base, is
now one of the smallest, with 53rd
Airways taking it’s place. Keep
’em flyin’ fellas. Our basketball
team is now faced with the ques
tion of whether the butterflies will
stick with the old Hq. Det. team,
or the gravel agitators will give
up their proud team and play with
the 53rd.
The new commanding officei
of the Engineers is 1st Lt. Nutter.
The former CO was Captain Gra
ham, Post Engineer. Pfc. Edward
Spencer, an electrician, is now in
the hospital, suffering from an in
fected knee. The original injury
occurred while running to the
mess hall, in the rush after PT.
about a week ago. Apparently Pfc.
Spencer reads more of Samuel
Johnson than Shakespeare. John
son suggests, “For a man seldom
thinks with more earnestness of
anything than he does his dinner,”
but in Romeo and Juliet, Shakes
peare wrote, “Wisely, and slow':
they stumble that run fast.”
The AACS is glad to have four
new men that have just come in.
They are M/Sgt. Samuel Widner.
chief GCA operator; Pfc. Benja
min Duncan and Pfc. Roland Red
erick, both GCA operators, and
Pfc. Joseph Picard, control tower
operator. Our list of promotions
also came in. We have two new
S/Sgts., Bohumil Oborny and
Francis Whitehead, one new Sgt.
Harold Swecker, and seven new
corporals, Phil Borys, Jack Deck
er, Claude Gilbert, Thomas Hoff
man, Donald Hubert, Wendell
Maine, and Charles Nolder. Cpl.
Wayne Jackson is going on TDY
to Anchorage to go to school.
The base is going more and
more to the ways of the Air Corps.
Nineteen men left the Hq. Det. to
join the Air Corps, leaving thirty
four men to carry on. The others
are now assigned to the 53rd Air
ways. Another thing showing the
trend toward the Air Corps, is the
promotion board which is made
up of nothing but Air Corps offi
cers, which is making some of the
ground-pounders sew their stripes
on U\ stay. Don’t worry though
DAUGHTER BORN TO MR.
AND TED COOMARA
Ted Coomara, busy commer
cial pilot from the Unalaklee
area is in town for a few days an
brings word of the birth of his
daughter, Sonya Alice, who is
now five weeks old.
He states that Unalakleet ha
been having a busy fall with good
harvests of vegetables by all the
farmers. Plane loads of green
stuff were flown to Haycock.

that.
Pfc. Koval of the 761st MP Bn.
transferred this week to Hq. £■
Hq. Det. so he will certainly be
missed by all of his fellow MPs.
His many jokes and pranks con
tributed greatly to the morale of
the outfit, for he just never >eem
ed to run out of either. All of the
“boys are looking forward to
I transferring to the Air Corps and
1 they’re real anxious to start sew
ing on their new service patches.
NO DAMAGE AT FIRE
