TAKE SATURDAY
AF FTERNOON OFF
Drydock Employees Refuse to
Work in Spite of Request of
Government Board

Even in view OF the fact that the
Shipbuilding Labor Adjustment Board
urged the workers IN every shipyard
in this time of national emergency, to
work eight hours each Saturday, be-
ginning with the first Saturday In Sep
tember, the employees of the two ship
yards in this city again quit work Sat-
urday at IL o'clock when their half
day was completed.
AS on the previous Saturday, there
was no trouble at either yard. When
the whistle failed to blow for the
men to stop work at IL o'clock, as
1t had been doing during the summer
time, they stopped work just the
same and waited for their pay which
was given them at noon.
Conditions were somewhat better
at the Brown shipyard in Totem
Vile as fifty per cent Of the men
remained at work, the other men
stopping work at II and ~ o'clock
It is estimated at this yard that next
Saturday will see at least seventy or
eighty per cent of the men remain
Ing on the Job. There is also posi-
bility that all of the men may remain
at work in this plant.
The men taking q half holiday at
the Perth Amboy yards, delays the
work going on there to considerable
extent. The company at the present
time Is busy repairing coal barges,
used in transporting coal to the New
England states, army and navy barges
used in the transport service by the
United States government, and ships
used in coastwise service.
