The striking stevedores, who arc said
to be under the domination Of the In
dustrial Workers of the World de-
mand that they be paid higher wages
and work shorter hours.
The strikers contend that their de-
mands are just in view of the eXorbi-

timated fully 10000 stevedores em-
ployed along the water front will join
the strikers If some compromise is
not effected. Several steamers load
ed with grain, have been held up as
a result of the walkout.
