UPHILL BATTLE: Chavez lettuce boycott given new boost by Dem campaign I I SEMI-ANNUAL Clearance Sale Eine Clothing and Furnishings Pan Iolvw CLOTHING STORE 326 S. STATE FRESNO, Calif (RP) - When Sen. Edward Kennedy (D- Mass.) hailed delegates to the Democratic National Conven- tion as "fellow lettuce boycot- ters," it gave a big boost to the Cesar Chavez - led boycott against non-union head lettuce, a United Farm Workers Union official said yesterday. However, an Associated Press survey of supermarket chains across the country indicated the boycott thus far is having little effect. "When we plan a boycott, we plan for a couple of years," said Marshall Ganz, director of the farm workers international boycott program. "The success of the boycott depends on reaching many, many Americans and convinc- ing them not to eat lettuce," that doesn't bear the UFW la- bel, Ganz added. "Something like this is tremendously help- ful," he continued, referring to Kennedy's salute. Kennedy, who introduced Sen. George McGovern ID-S.D.) when he made his acceptance speech at the convention early yesterday echoed sentiments ex- pressed by members of num- erous state delegations, includ- ing California, New York, Illi- nois, Tennessee, Rhode Island, and Oregon.

"Most of the dele- gations and many of the Dem- ocratic state conventions en- dorsed the boycott and urged people not to buy lettuce." "The Democratic party is the largest political organization in the United States," he added, "and having that kind- of sup- port and the fact that it's en- dorsed right in the platform is very helpful. We're waiting to e what the Republicans are going to do." The boycott extends to all lettuce which does not carry the UFW's stamp, Ganz said. About 15 per cent of the total lettuce crop in Californiagand Arizorna is harvested by grow- ers which have contracts with the UFW, he added. However, many other growers have con- tracts with the teamsters, which has led to a jurisdictional dis- pute between the two unions. Ganz said the current cam- paign is directed primarily at the general public, asking peo- ple to sign a pledge not to buy non-UFW lettuce. Each pledge that is signed, he added, costs a grower about $15 a year in lost sales. Emil Ghio, Jr., president of Golden West Packing Co., in Chula Vista, Calif., predicted that the publicity given the UFW would hurt the Democra- tic party.
