japanese Would Return
An important development of the
strike situation is that numbers sof |
the Japanese steVedores who left |
their work in sympathy with the |
strikers. or from intimidation are re-
turning to the jobs they left where |
possible. Where they left to affili- |
ate with the union some are express
ing dissatisfaction. .s...@ 49,.
This morning Mizusaki had 80 of |
his regular stevedoring force at work |
for him and 20 who were engaged by
him when his old men left him. This
brings his force up to 40, which is al
most up to the usual force which he
employs. : 49, o.. .... =. - ....- ~ 50. i
