Baltimore Rail Yard Strike Grips City and Halts Freight
International News Service reports a new authorized railroad yard workers strike began in Philadelphia and spread to Baltimore.

Crews stayed loyal, and unions blamed the labor board for delays. Wilmington also saw 100 yardmen quit after a late-night meeting, spreading the strike to Delaware.
