Dockers May Strike by Christmas Week on West Coast

Nixon invoked the act to force workers back after a 10 day stoppage, its ninth dock dispute intervention, with cooling off period ending just before Christmas.

Past use rarely fin ishes disputes during the cooling off phase and often leads to renewed strikes after injunctions lift.
