Folder: S.F. Unions-International Longshoremen & Warehousemen's Union.
Newscopy: "Stevedores and warehouse workers from the Pacific Coast and Hawaii gather at San Francisco headquarters of the C. I. O. International Longshoremen's & Warehousemen's Union for the waterfront organization's eighth biennial convention. It may be the union's most tumultuous gathering in its history. A showdown floor fight is expected between supporters of Harry Bridges, who opposes U. S. foreign policy, and more conservative elements who favor the Marshall Plan and other anti-Communist measures."
