Captains Protest Union’s Demand on Discharging Vessels at St John’s
A group of auxiliary schooner captains met the Secretary for Natural Resources to challenge the Longshoremen's Protective Union requirement that Union labour be used to discharge their ships. J W Gray, president of the LSPU, said the union does not intend to block schooners under 50 tons or those carrying codfish in bulk, while noting past rules and current competition from larger auxiliaries. The dispute centers on Union labour rules, pay rates, and enforcement amid changing vessel sizes and cargoes.
