Striking Workers Seek to Tie up New York Harbor
NEW YORK UP—Forty-three hundred tugboat and oil barge workers in New York, Philadelphia and Norfolk, Va., struck for higher wages early today (Sunday) threatening to immobilize the busy ports.
New York, with memories of a crippling 13-day walkout seven years ago, faced food, power and fuel shortages.
The city quickly began to survey public utilities to see how long their fuel supplies would hold out.
A relatively small group of 350 workers of four companies took to shore in Norfolk, but, with a pledge from another 10,000 dock workers to observe their picket lines they seemed capable of tinging up the entire busy Hampton Roads harbor.
The 450 men involved in Philadelphia handle the docking of most of the ships arriving in that port.
The strikers are members of the United Marine Division, AFL International Longshoremen's Association.
There are 3500 of them in the Port of New York working on 450 craft.
Eighty tugs and barges are tied up in Philadelphia, 28 in Norfolk.
In all cases, military cargoes seemed free to move.
The union promised in New York that they would not be hindered.

"I'm having a hard time getting out of town. I think they're looking for me in San Francisco. I'm hurt and dazed and I've been in an accident. I have a lot of money. I can't say much on the beauty operator, waits with Rev. W. P. Brooks, Jr., to hear her childhood sweetheart speak the words from the island of Guam in mid-Pacific that completed their wedding by telephone Jan. 28. The new Mrs. Walter D. Caldwell had to be married before she could get permission to go to Guam, where Howell is a radar technician working with the air force."

Abolish Emergency Credential, CTA Delegates Say
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 31 UP—The California Teachers association Saturday recommended abolition of the emergency teaching credential.
This type of credential now held by several thousand persons in the state, permits teaching on the basis of classroom needs rather than qualifications.
Delegates to the association's meeting asked that the emergency credential be abolished by July 1, 1954.
They recommended its replacement with a provisional credential which would require the holder to have some college training and to seek additional training until full credentials standards are reached.
The delegates also recommended that elementary school teachers have five years' teaching training, as do high school teachers; set up a commission on teacher education and professional standards, and urged an increased recruitment program to meet the teacher shortage.

Jap Premier Says 'No Dulles Deal'
TOKYO, Jan. 31 (UP) — Prime Minister Shigeru Yoshida flatly denied in the diet Saturday that he made secret commitments to rearm Japan when John Foster Dulles visited this country in 1951.
The denial came in response to allegations by opposition parties. Dulles, in 1951, an adviser to the U.S. state department, now is U.S. secretary of state.
"I have never been asked or pressed to rearm Japan," Yoshida said.
Nor have I been told to send troops to the Korean front. The Japanese public will not agree to such a thing. The government, too, cannot agree to such a step.
Yoshida emphasized that Japan would cooperate fully with the U.S., without being "subservient to American foreign policies as the Japanese Communist party is to the Soviet's."
Lt. J. A. Stringer Assigned to Duty At Corpus Christi
Lt. Jacob A. Stringer, USN, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Stringer, 121 E. Broadway, Anaheim, reported to the U.S. Naval Auxiliary Air Station, Cabaniss Field, Corpus Christi, Texas, recently, for duty as flight instructor.
Stringer, a graduate of Dalhart High school, entered the Navy in 1942 at Dallas, Tex. He served overseas for 19 months and was attached to Fleet Air Service Squadron prior to reporting to Cabaniss Field. Cabaniss Field is one of the Navy's two advanced flight training bases for student carrier pilots. There they are taught to fly carrier-type aircraft such as the AD Skyraider (currently used by pilots of the Seventh Fleet in the Korean conflict) and the F6F Hellcat, Navy fighter planes. Carrier based aviation has been credited with 75 per cent of all close air support for ground troops in the Korean Theater.
