Buffalo Strikes Near End as Keefe Talks Continue
In Buffalo on May 22 quiet prevailed at docks as grain scoopers and freight handlers observed slower activity. International Longshoremen's Association President Keefe met with strikers' committees but offered no definite outcome.

Freight handlers seem near a settlement and scoopers largely favor Bishop Quigley's guidance, though some proposed individual contracts faced opposition from elevator owners.
