Ship's Captain Targeted by Pickets Over Misconduct Verdict

NEW YORK, Aug. 5. Sailors refused to join the Flying Arrow crew and NMU picketed the ship in protest of Capt. David Jones after a Coast Guard decision suspended his license for six months with one year probation. Jones was found guilty of two crew charges and innocent of two others. He was faulted for leaving lifeboat equipment and for ordering two men to work near a potentially dangerous smoke stack. The Flying Arrow, part of Isbrandtsen Line, was shelled by Chinese gunboats last January during a blockade attempt toward Shanghai. The NMU says sailors will not sign on while Jones remains skipper. Isbrandtsen declined comment awaiting settlement.
