NOX-UNION MEN JADING
SHIP FOLLOWING STRIKE
With non-union longshoremen at
work, the loading of the' Isthmian line
steamer Steelmaker, which was delayed
several hours at the start Wednesday
with a strike of union longshoremen,
was going ahead today in good shape,
according to N. F. Titus of the Mann
Titus company, local agents for the
line.
The Steelmaker is at Columbia dock
No. 1, and 70 men were engaged in the
work of stowing the 2500 t$ns of
sacked grain that is being loaded. The
strike was called by the union men,
who refused to accept the wheat from
non-union grainhandlers.
The operators expect to flniBh grain
loading by Friday afternoon, when the
vessel will be shifted to the Inman
Poulsen mill to take on 1,500.000 feet
of long timbers. The vessel will con
clude its cargoing here with general
cargo at municipal terminal No. 1, foot
of Fifteenth street.
Altogether the Steelmaker, which Is
the first of the United States Steel
Products corporation fleet to call here,
will carry out about 5200 tons of cargo,
according to Titus.
The Waterfront Employers' union of
Portland has been arguing the question
of dock jurisdiction with the longshore
men for several months, and recently
a nine day continuous session was con
cluded with apparently satisfactory re
sults. The non-union men employed, they
say, are ex-service men, who were
given positions last winter at the be
hest of Mayor Bjaker to relieve the un
employed situation.
According to the agreement now in ef
fect, men must be hired for dock and
stevedoring work through the Interna
tional Longshoremen's hall, said J. W.
Murphy, secretary of the longshoremen's
union, this morning.
"We can supply ex-service men for the
work, and we can supply any amount of
men needed to load ships in the local
harbor, and our walkout will remain ef
fective on this or any other ship where
the employers do not live up to their end
of our agreement," said Murphy.
MASTERS ON STEAMSHIP OF
ADMIRAL SERVICE CHANGED

MONEY (JOES
WALL STREET IS
By Broadan Wall
New York, April 29. After a se
vere decline In which nearly all is
Rues participated, the stock market
rallied sharply Just before the close
Wednesday. Sentiment was pessi
mistic even with that rally, for it
meant nothing more than a cover
ing movement of the professionals.
The street firmly believes that Import
ant labor troubles are at hand and that
the policy of the reserve banks In forcing
immediate curtailment of credits will
bring about many business failures along
with the lower cost of living that it is
theoretically intended to force.
Money went to 10 per cent and the
gold Imports talked of yesterday failed
to materialize.
FEDERAL ACTION HURTS
Action of the government in asking a
rehearing of the steel case was hurtful
to the market because it boded no good
for the proposed new combination.
Mexico also furnished Its quota of
doleful news. Although the American
woolen report has been common knowl
edge for -weeks its actual appearance has
started much talk of abnormal profltts
and indirectly it hurts the sugar stocks.
So the close was confusing.
Advices to buy United States Steel
had come to so many persons from such
high authorities that the failure to de
clare a stock dividend was a severe dis
appointment One had practically been
promised by persons who were In posi
tion to speak for the management and
who were understood to be so speaking.
It was not the speculative element that
was misled by some of the most Im
portant investments. The excellent re
port of earnings failed of market effect
because it is well known that the indus
try Is suffering more from the switch
men's strike than it suffered from the
steel strike. The threat of a strike of
anthracite miners was not given much
publicity but seems there is considerable
reason for fearing such a development.
WORKERS TO BE POLLED
One of the important banking inter
ests of the street is said to be about to
take a poll indirectly of every labor man
in the country to find out what he thinks
about Bolshevism, the next president,
wages and the high cost of living. This
inquiry will cost thousands of dollars and
take about three months to complete. In
the meantime, that particular interest is
letting the stock market alone.
