Dockworkers end boycott load grain on East Gate
Longshoremen under a federal judge order broke their anti Soviet boycott and loaded grain onto the East Gate bound for Russia. Judge Veronica Wicker ruled the ILA violated a no strike clause and ordered loading to proceed. The Continental Grain elevator reported a normal crew at work with unclear completion or departure timing.
