Oil stoppage lingers amid scattered union discontent
About 60,000 oil workers continued to refuse or fail to ratify return-to-work deals as scattered settlements emerged. CIO Oil Workers International Union head O A Knight said roughly one third of the 90,000 who walked out on April 30 had returned, with most back by week end. Talks with Tide Water Association in San Francisco collapsed after a union warning of a likely California strike and a Tide Water refinery with 1,300 workers faced wage dispute over a 7 percent average raise rather than 15 cents an hour. A Stand Oil of Indiana refinery offered 15 cents an hour wage boost but kept other terms unresolved.
