ae nf 1054 into history did
nothing to write finis to the long
story of Pacific Coast waterfront
strife.

picketing that tnreatenea me
sailinsr of the SS Tradewinds
from Seattle to San Francisco.
And the dawn of each new day
sees the Coastwise Lines freight
er Pacificus idle in ban Pedro

Conferences Continued
Tn San Francisco. National La
bor Relations Board officials
iP(i conferences on tne
forthcoming representation elec
tion of 6000 unlicensed sailors,
firemen, cooks and stewards
aboard Pacific Maritime Asso
ciation ships.
If there is a common denomi
nator on the waterfront labor
..ens it ia the uncommon ri
valry between the Sailors Un
ion of the Pacific and the Inter
national Longeshoremen's and
Warehousemen's Union.
Th PMA. which contnbutea
to the Pacificus dispute by grant
ing conflicting commitments to
the rival unions, continues its
watchful waiting policy after
fruitless efforts at negotiations.
PMA Not Folding
But J .Paul St Sure, pmas
resident, says he is sure of one
thing: the PMA is not folding up
despite reports to tne contrary.
He brusquely insists there is
nothing to them.
"W can exoect more union
demands." he said when asked if
he anticipated pressure from the
various bargaining units wmcn
have a hand in waterrront ac
tivities." ' '
Specifically, it is believed the
Masters, Mates and mots 01
America will ask a wage review
soon. Unlicensed seamen also ex
pect wage increases soon. Both
the CIO Marine Engineers .and
Radio Officers are demanding a
pension plan under threat of
strike in February. ."''
The PMA's contracts with the
two AFL unions, the Sailors' and
the Marine Firemen's, have ex
pired though they continue in
force on an unwritten day-to-day
basis. .

up the river flow and sent the
water past the blind again.

CHOP
SUP President Harry Lunde
berg has : promised to "m a k e
things tough" on the PMA at ne
gotiation time if he doesn't get
the PMA disciplining of the long
shoremen that he desires.
Lundeberg and : Secretary of
Labor James P. Mitchell, acting
separately, killed any chances of
strong federal action in the Pa
cificus matter. Lundeberg grant
ed .PMA's request for a fact
finding panel an attempt on the
part of the ship owners to cover
up an "unholy alliance", with the
ILWU. : 3 rt-----r
Mitchell said since the dispute
did. not vitally affect the nation
al security it did not warrant
the requested attention. Instead,
a single federal, conciliator was
appointed to study , the dispute.
The Pacificus squabble result
ed from a conflict over unload
ing rights on coastal freighters
and led to a refusal on the part
of both the ILWU and SUP to
handle cargo on, the ship. Subse
quently, the longshoremen have
agreed to- give the sailors the
rights ,they asked for "this one
trip but Lundeberg wants fu
ture assurancances. .These have
not been forthcoming. " 1 r
Loss of Jobs Protested ' " Y

agent for the Marine Cooks and
Stewards in Seattle, said picket
ing of the Tradewinds was by

ed aboard the famous old ship

They're protesting the loss of
their jobs to a foreign crew,'' he
said. r
- The ship, which was allowed
to sail yesterday, was recently
sold to the Caribbean Atlantic
Lines and transferred to Liber
ian registry. An all-G e r m a n
crew was brought in to man her.
