Twenty nine of forty six crewmen on the Dutch freighter Cartago quit their jobs after a Christmas Day dispute with Captain Gerritsma over beer and food. The crew complained of a starvation diet and lack of meals while the captain, citing discipline, barred further beer after an incident with a drinking crew member. Longshoremen raised $35 to aid the sailors as the ship waited for a replacement crew in San Francisco after docking on New Year’s Eve.
