Damage Suit
(Continued from Page One)
dered to return to work at the
mill today. The mill had been
closed a year by the ILVVU’s pic
keting.
The jury of nine men and three
women asked the bailiff to call
Judge Folta at 11 p.m. last night
but the bailiff refused. The jury
said they wanted to obtain “fur
ther particulars.”
Judge Folta in his instructions
to the jury made it clear that nei
ther the longshoremen’s local,
which sought the right to load
company barges and* sling lumber,
nor the international woodwork
ers of America, to whom the work
has been assigned by the company,
had been certified by the NLRB as
bar gaining representatives for
employees doing such work.
He also emphasized that both
Verna Allbright, ILWU represen
tative and Germaine Buckley,
ILWU vice * president, both of
whom figured in the case, were
agents.
Judge Folta said the burden of
proof had been on the company to
show that the ILAVU from April
10, 1928, until now had engaged in
a concerted refusal to handle the
company’s commodities in an ef
fort to compel the company to as
sign the loading to the ILWIJ.
If pecuniary loss was found, the
federal judge said, the jury must
find for the company in the
amount the jury believes right.
His instructions took 20 minutes,
followed by 50 minutes of excep
tions by attorneys for both sides.
At a naval training center a
pharmacist’s mate was preparing
to fingerprint a recruit.
“Wash your hands,” he instruct

“Both of them?” asked the sail
or-to-be.
The pharmacist’s mate hesitat
ed. “No,” he said grimly, “just
one. I want to see how you do it.”
Japs Violate
Fishing Boundary
Set By MacArthur
TOKYO, <>P) — An American
fishing mission says Japanese fish
ermen may be violating General
MacArthur’s boundaries
The three-man mission has
spent a month investigating Jap
anese operations. Its members are
Edward W. Allen, Seattle; Donald
T. Loker, Los Angeles, and Fred
erick M. Bundy, Gloucester, Mass.
They will make reports to occupa
tion headquarters here and to the
! army department in Washington.
At a news conference Wednes
day, Allen said Pacific coast fish
ermen feel the Japanese bonita
and tuna fishermen have been vi
olating the established boundaries.
He added:
“The Japanese government and
fishing industry should plan for
the maximum sustaining yield
from authorized areas. Such a pol
icy will not permit destructive
fishing. Fishing intensively should
be carried on only to a point where
the subsequent year’s catch will
not be jeopardized.”
Asked if large enough catches
can be taken within the MacAr
thur line to make Japan self-sus
taining, Loker replied:
I “The history of Japan is that
Japan has never been self-sus
taining.”
The mission recommended Ja
pan should elevate its fishing
agency to a cabinet ministry so
that policy-making can be dealt
with more effectively when a
peace treaty with Japan is signed.
For the present, the mission
urged that the Japanese govern
ment patrol the boundaries.
The Americans described Jap
anese fishing technique as excel
lent.
Allen and Bundy were sched
uled to leave for the U. S.*yester
: day. Loker will depart Tuesday.
