Dock Strike Rebellion A Fizzle
NEW YORK AP Port activity from Maine to Texas was paralyzed today by a strike of union dock workers. A threatened back to work movement by a Brooklyn local failed to materialize and top union leaders squelched the rebellion as ships stood idle along coasts. About 200 freighters were tied up and New York Harbor saw only a handful of workers as rail and pier traffic halted to prevent unmanned facilities.
