Shore Leave Plan Rejected By Maritime Union
The CIO National Maritime Union rejected a Labor Department backed plan granting shore leave with pay for seamen to break a week at sea. The proposal offered one day of shore leave for every 14 days at sea while preserving a 56 hour week. Eastern ship operators had endorsed it, but the union insisted on a 44 hour week and called the idea impractical. A new negotiating session was planned as a nationwide seamen and dockers strike looms, with walkout set for one minute after midnight Friday in each port.
