Pacific coast marine strike paralyzes water transport
The strike by about forty thousand marine workers across the Pacific Coast Alaska and Hawaii has nearly halted water transport. Losses are estimated above 100 million dollars per month with totals exceeding 300 million. The 1934 arbitration model is cited in contrast as violence was low here due to nonmovement of cargo. Attempts to settle stall over hiring control and union demands. President Roosevelt pressured to intervene to restore commerce and end the dispute.
