In New York a large majority of International Longshoremen's Association members voted 14 458 to 1 185 to reject a contract offer from the New York Shipping Association, clearing the way for a resumed port strike. The tied tugboat walkout has disrupted fuel supplies, risking a heat shortfall as 4 000 tugmen join the action and 25 000 workers could be affected if the strike restarts.
