Board To End Urges House Probe Strike Hearings Of Mob Violence

Looks Like Bliss

Scattered showers fell on j drought-parched New England today but they were too light to j greatly ease the serious threat ; to crops or lessen the fire danger in tinder-dry forests. Most of New York and New Jersey, which like New England have experienced an unprecedented 27-day spell of iiigii icmperatures and scarcely any rain, also continued to be scorched, with little relief in sight.

HONOLULU, June 22 (UP) Gov. Ingram M. Stainback’s emergency fact-finding board was scheduled to wind Up its "public trial” of the Hawaiian Longshoremen’s strike today. The board will present its findings to Stamback, but there is no indication either party will accept any recommendations it may make for settlement of tho eight-week-old strike. « James p. Blaisdell, counsel for the Stevedoring Companies, said the board must find either for the employers or for the CIO Longshoremen's Union. He said the board must not try to compromise the Union's demand for an increase of 32 cents an hour and the employer's offer of eight cents. Either the Union is right in demanding near-parity with West coast wages 0 r the employers are right in insisting that any’ Increase be based on local conditions. Hlaisdeli said. He said there is “no middle ground.”

WASHINGTON, June 22.— (UP) Rep. Francis E. Walter, !>., Pa., urged today that the House Judiciary Committee investigate mob violence In Alabama to find out “whether then lias been a breakdown of local law.” At the same time, Rep. Laurie C. Battle, Alabama Democrat, said tin' FBI has assured him it will do what it can to combat the outbreaks by hooded mobsters in his home state. Almost a dozen incidents ol lawless beatings and threatened hangings have been reported by authorities in and around Birmingham in the past several days. Walter, a member of the Judiciary Committee, suggested that that group should look into the situation for evidence on civil rights legislation. Object of the investigation would be to get evidence fron victims, legal authorities and in-

terested citizen* on whether local. state and federal statutes can cope with such mobs. "We don't want to interfere with any efforts that may be underway by the Justice Department or local authorities,” Walter said. “But we should find out how serious or widespread this is. We have no clear idea of

what may be prompting thesa incidents but I think we should find out. “We should determine whether there has been a breakdown of local law and whether federal and state officials are powerless to act because of loopholes in existing laws."
