Grain loading resumes as dock halt eases
The article notes a temporary halt in grain loading after Russians bought 9.8 million tons last month. U.S. District Judge James Noel in Galveston issued a limited injunction against longshoremen, allowing loading to resume on the Yugoslav ship Bosanka and the Italian vessel Ivanfrancesca. Vincent Lampasas of ILBA Local 1278 said operations were back in progress and following the judge’s order. The hearing continues on making the back-to-work order permanent, amid broader dock shutdowns tied to U.S. Soviet grain contracts and labor concerns over food prices. Ford expressed willingness to act, citing ongoing talks with Russia for better rates and a pledge to protect consumers while supporting agricultural production and exports.
