Longshoremen Return To Jobs After Dock Work Stoppage
New York AP reports longshoremen returned to the docks after a one day stoppage that crippled the port of New York while the nationwide quaritime strike expanded. At least 150 ships were immobilized in 30 ports along the East West and Gulf coasts as negotiations stalled and oil plants faced disruption. Texas oil producers urged President Kennedy to use the Taft Hartley Act for an 80 day cooling off period. Leaders urged support for the strike by ships officers and crewmen, though some rank and file opposed. The ILA is not directly involved but its members are not crossing maritime picket lines.
