WORKERS ON STRIKE
At BIG SH|PYARD
600 at Baltimore Plant Demand
Higher Wages.
$10.56 A DAY ASKED BY MEN
Leave Unfinished Mine Sweepers Until
Decision is Rendered-National
officers of Union Expect to
Settle Trouble Quickly.

Washington, March 20.-A serious
local interruption in the shipbuilding
progress, due TO demands for increased
wages by workers who month ago
were given substantial advances in
pay, was reported to the shipping
board from Baltimore. where 600 riv-
eters, clippers. caulkers, reamers and
drillers left the hullS on which they
were working in the yards of the Bal
timOre Dry Docks and ShipbuiIding
company.
Mine Sweepers under construction
for the navy were left unfinished by
the strikers, as well as the merchant
ships building in an effort to offset
the losses from submarines.
Workers Demand $10.56 a Day.
The company officials reported that
the walkout took place without any
legislation, but that they understood
the men refused to work until de-
ciSion was rendered on their demand
for SlO.56 a day for clippers and
caulkers and S24 day for riveting
gangs of two men and boy, all of
whom are employed on what is known
as allowance work on intricate parts
of the ships hulls.
Officials of the shipping board think
the strike is an effort 10 force a day
wage scale on the basis of pay for
special work. The present day scale
for ttnippers and caulkers is $3.50 for
eight hours, with many men making
greater sums In getting time and a
half for overtime and double time for
holidays and Sundays. Riveters make
even more working on piece rates.
Expect Settlement.
J. A, Franklin, president of the
boler-makers' union, TO which most
Of the strikers belong, was notified
of the trouble, and confidence was ex-
pressed by officials that the national
officers Of the union would settle the
difficulty. All Of the metal trades
unions have promised complete coop
GRAFTON in the shipbuilding program
and have refused to hinder production
by special demands such as were
made recently by the carpenters. The
Baltimore trouble is believed here to
be entirely local, with no likelihood of
affecting other yards, where the work
ers approved the new wage scale re-
