Federal conciliator seeks settlement in Pacific dock dispute
U S conciliator Willam P Halloran called a meeting for early next week to bridge talks between the CIO International Longshoremen and Warehousemen Union and the Waterfront Employers Association. The sides split April 19 over a contract to replace the expiring June 15 agreement as longshoremen vote on a strike proposal in Wilmington with Portland already voting to walk out. The core issue is the hiring hall with the union demanding a union dispatcher for crews while the employers seek an impartial nonunion dispatcher.
