Judge Edward S. Miller jailed Isaac Levin and his son, Saul, both of Bridge-ton, for four hours on Friday after he failed to get their signatures on a form recognizing the right of the Agricultural Workers Organizing Committee to represent 16 workers on their farm. The committee, known under its Spanish acronym COTA, has been trying to negotiate with the Levin Farm in Rosenhayn since May, but the owners have refused to recognize the union, said union director Angel Domin-guez. When the efforts failed, the state Public Advocate's office took the case to court on behalf of the farm workers Aug. 9.

Deputy Public Advocate Richard Goldberg said that as far as he knew, Miller's action set a precedent. "This is the first time any court on the East Coast has ordered a farmer to recognize a union," Goldberg said. "It is the first time a New Jersey court has recognized that farm workers have a right to collective bargaining." A telephone message left at the Levin's home was not returned. Miller said he ascertained from the testimony of the farm workers that they had indeed organized a union. "The workers came into my courtroom saying they wanted to have a union.

I asked them if they had all signed union cards and they said So I said 'I recognize your Miller said. "I then asked the farm's owners to sign a recognition form, which says they will negotiate with the workers' union. They said they wouldn't sign, so I threw them in jail," he added. At 2:00 p.m., after four hours in the cell, the owners were released and asked again to sign the form, and again they refused, the judge said. Miller said he suspended the second incarceration order so the defendants could file their appeal.

"The New Jersey State Constitution gives every worker the right to organize a union and engage in collective bargaining. I didn't tell them (the Levins) that they had to sign a contract, I told them they had to recognize their workers right to organize," Miller said. The Levin Farm is one of three New Jersey farms where COTA has organized workers. The others are the Malenelli Farm in Rosenhayn and the Sante Farm neap Trenton, Dominguez said, adding that their owners have not yet recognized the union. COTA said it has over 200 workers signed up in New Jersey and Jf 'V'" in Weehawken sign that fell on The suspect was identified as Frank Robert Johanna, 21, of South Burlington Street, by Detective Gregory Kushner.

Kushner said the suspect had lived with the victim, Gaspare DiLorenzo, and his family in the Imperial House, 35 S. White Horse Pike, until last year. Kushner said Johanna had had a key made without DiLorenzo's knowledge, and let himself into the apartment Thursday night while his 17-year-old girlfriend and two other companions waited outside. A maintenance man at the building noted the license tag number and informed police who traced it to the suspect's girlfriend, a resident of Camden's Fairview section. Kushner said yesterday that Johanna was arrested Friday and is in Camden County Jail in lieu of $5,000 bail.

No charges have been filed against the companions, pending further investigation. Items stolen included a television set, a gold wedding band, lottery tickets and an anniversary edition of the game Monopoly.

The structure carrying traffic signs collapsed when an eastbound tractor-trailer truck accidentally raised its hydraulic back, striking the bridge at about 9:10 a.m., said Leon Katz, a spokesman for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. The bridge fell onto the westbound roadway, striking a smaller dump truck and a passenger car. The driver of the car, identified as Marguerite Rittenhouse, 63, of New York City, was killed, Katz said.

A passenger in the car, identified as Dori Chrystle, 36, of New York City, was injured and admitted at St. Mary Hospital in Hoboken, he said. Thedriverofthetractor-trailer, Jeffrey White, 44, of Brooklyn, N.Y., and the driver of the smaller truck, Joseph Contello, 28, of Queens, N.Y., were treated for minor injuries and released from St. Mary Hospital, Katz said.

Eduardo Rodriguez, 40, of Brockton, and Alfredo Arias, 27, of Boston, were being held on $150,000 bail each yesterday in the Union County Jail on charges of possession of cocaine and possession with intent to distribute cocaine, officials said. Lt. William Jagusak, of the county Narcotics Strike Force, called the suspects "upper level dealers" in a drug organization that apparently supplied a number of street dealers along the East Coast with pure cocaine.

The two were arrested Thursday night here after police received a tip that Massachusetts residents were supplying people in Union County with "substantial quantities" of cocaine, Jagusak said. He added that investigators found 2.2 poundsof the drug in the doors of the vehicle. Newark woman held for aggravated arson NEWARK (AP) A 25-year-old city woman was arrested by authorities after reputedly threatening to bring an "atomic bomb" to the old county courthouse here, officials said.

Richard Bryan and threats by Rep. Harry Reid of Nevada that the nuclear train could provoke civil disobedience, Laxalt charged the approach of some opponents has not been responsible. Laxalt, in an Associated Press interview at his Marlette Lake retreat, was asked about charges by Bryan that Republicans in the state's congressional delegation were dragging their feet on issues such as nuclear storage and military use of Nevada land. "He's playing politics with the issue and that's his prerogative," Laxalt said of Bryan. Asked if he and other Republicans were "out of touch" on the issue, Laxalt replied: "Not at all.

We just have differing views on how the problem should be approached. We'd like to think we're being a bit more responsible."

James Staples, spokesman for the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, said contractors have been busy removing the dirt from under 12 houses in Montclair, West Orange and Glen Ridge. The contractors have been storing the soil in containers and placing them in trailers, which will be put on flatbed railroad cars for the trip out West, Staples said.

Meanwhile, Staples said, officials here are trying to stay out of the controversy raging in Nevada. U.S. Sen. Paul Laxalt of Nevada disclosed last week that said some Nevada leaders are playing politics in the current furor and that is their prerogative. "In the judgment of experts, this piestiiu no hazard io liie people of Nevada," Laxalt said of plans to ship 7,200 tons of low-level radioactive dirt from New Jersey to a dump at Beatty, Nev.
