PILOTS NOW IN THE UrIoN
They Affiliate with the Longshoremen's
Organization, After Organizing
Internationally.


Detroit, Feb. 17.-On the authority
of Secretary Harry Barker, of the In
ternational Longshoremen, Marine and
Transport Workers association, the De-
troit Tribune today announces the or
ganization of the International Pilots
association, affiliated with the long
shoremen and with the Federation of
Labor. Last week the executive c0un-
Gil of the 'longshoremen at it's meet
ing in Detroit granted charter to the
new association, which Secretary Bar
ter says has already LOO members.
The appearance of the pilots asso-
citation is said to be due to friction in
the old American Association of Mas
tiers and Pilots Of Steam Vessels, the
masters having strenuously opposed
the pilots efforts to have the old or
ganization affiliate with Federation. In
the Interna tional Pilots association
masters are TO be barred from men,
