From what he had seen of the

said, the cotton crop there might
equal last year's 392.000 bales de-

Uses Reported To Says Has Freed
19,064 Prisoners
BERLIN tj»—Ea st Germany's
Communist rulers announced to-
day they- have freed 19.064
prisoners most of them held for
political crimes. At the same
time the Reds opened a new and
violent attack on the woman who
put many, of the prisoners be-
hind bars. “Red Hilda" Benjamin.
The blast at 54-year-Old MrA
Benjamin, the grim-faced, heavy-
set minis*er of justice, was the
strongest so far from within the
partv. It could foreshadow a
purge of the top woman in the
East Oerman government.
Mrs. Benjamin and prosecutor
Gen. Ernest Melsheimer were ac-
cused of unjustified arrests,- il-
legal activity against the people
and too ruthless administration
of justice
The Red regime said it had
freed so many prisoners in recent
mqn.ths as a demonstration of its
strength and its will to reunify
divided Germany.

front union officials."
Riesel said Bridges’
over his union puts him In a po
Sition to shut down the ports ot
Honolulu and San Francisco at
win.
He testified that Bridges also
has "influence" in the port of New
Orleans, but has been balked so
fnr in attempts to extend his rule
to New York and other East Coast
ports Riesel said Bridges had
worked through Kibre, Velson and
others in his efforts to gain con-
trol of the East Coast (Jocks.
"You think that if we trace the
activities of Harry Bridges in th®
various ports that we would have
a good idea of what Communist
activities on the waterfront are?”
asked Robert Morris, subcommit-
tee counsel.
"Of course,” replied Riesel, who
described Bridges as “a cham-
pion of Communist and Soviet
causes."
He said Bridges’ union also has
organized the workers on Hawai-
ian sugar and pineapple planta-
tions and ' could not only shut the
port but close down the entire
(territorial) economy by calling an
agricultural strike.
Riesel said Bridges has begun
to take government workers into
his union, adding "it is now quite
probable that he will have the
same influence in government of-
fices that he has amongst the wa-
terfront and plantation rank and
