Longshoremen Split on CIO and AFL Picket Lines
In New York, about 300 International Longshoremen's Association members passed through National Maritime Union picket lines, with 200 longshoremen staying off work. ILA President Joseph P. Ryan criticized the NMU as a CIO group, while AFL unions argued the raises came from their efforts. Baltimore reports noted NMU members received passes, and AFL rep August Idzik said some ILA men would not recognize CIO pickets as they prepared to board ships.
