Daily News strike halts publish in New York
The Daily News could not publish as photoengravers refused to cross picket lines amid ongoing negotiations with the News and Times. Key issue is job security for 64 photoengravers at Newspoint in Queens, with talks continuing into the early morning. The Times faced no strike, and a pact between the two papers affects potential publication if either is shut down.
