More Out of Work

NEW YORK, Jan. Except for q
lighters engaged in debarkation or
home coming troops and loaded with
perishable supplies tor the American
Expeditionary Forces, harbor ship
ping was at a standstill today as the
results of the strike of $1,000 marine
workers in an attempt to force arbi-
tration of their commands for higher
wages and an eight hour day.
Not only privately owned craft, but
the boats of the railroad administra-
ton, 1900 in number, were tied up,
and the sailing or berthing of ocean
steamships as well as the ferries of
passengers between aMnhattan and
neighboring boroughs and suburbs,
was impossible.
Suspension of ferry service left
Staten Island completely Isolated ex-
cept for two small boats operating to
and from Perth Amboy on the New
Jersey shore, and launches able to
carry only small groups of passengers.
From New Jersey and Long Island the
only, access to New York was by way
of the East river bridges and the
subways and tunnels under the East
and North rivers in which trains were
crowded with delayed travellers
The strike, called notwithstanding
a request by the government to oper-
ate the harbor with soldiers and sail
ors, was ordered yesterday when a
conference of the union men and the
Boat Owners Association broke up
following the refusal of the latter to
arbitrate the question of an. eight
hour wage. The War Labor Board
was unable to affect a settlement,
Strike May Spread.
While the strike at present has not
been applied TO coast line steamers,
coast wise tugs. The Transatlantic
steamship or Long Island Sound
steamers, 1t was said by the labor
leaders that it must eventually spread
to those lines and throw out of en-
ployment $4,000 longshoremen and
freight handlers.
In that case 1t was predicted with
in twenty-four hours the boat situa-
tion here would be more serious.
Staten Island Isolated.
Staten Island, comprising Rich
mond borough of the city was COM
pletely isolated by the strike. The fer
ry service between lower Manhattan
and Brooklyn was stopped.
MOST of the ferries between New
York and New Jersey were also sus-
pended. At the Fort Lee ferry, ~.-.ch

ruly upon being informed that the
service had been discontinued.
Though the men were advised 10 take

fused. declaring that TO do so meant
