SHIPPING DISPUTE.
FEARS AT SAN FRANCISCO. SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 29. This week will probably decide whether San Franci6co shipping is to be held up on the same scale as in 1936. A dozen critical labour conferences arc scheduled to begin. Mr Harrv Bridges has taken charge of the workers’ fight. The situation is made more serious by growing fears of a break between the longshoremen and the shipowners. The Pacific Maritime Federation formed by Mr Bridges to organise a united front against the shipowners declares that the latter are attempting to 6plit the federation by delaying a renewal of contracts.
