places were promptly filled by 13O Italians. who

the St Louis which is now In this port, is being
oiled and cleaned as usual. while the members OF
the former shore gang are making efforts to have
their cause espoused by the Longshoremens Union
and the International Union OF Seamen. This un-
successful strike is bearing particularly hard on
the strikers according 10 their story. They say
that when steamer comes into port they work
steadily without sleep for three days and nights
and they consider the 50 which they receive for
this service far too small. The necessity for such
quick work exists only the American line, they
say. as the ships Of this line are the only big
steamers which do not remain in port for more
