HARBOR MEN ARE ANGRY

The Federal Government made an
other step toward ending the harbor
strike yesterday when it leased twelve
tugboats from their owners for the
purpose of coaling troopships and other
Government vessels, and at the same
time>gave boat owners their choice of
supplying the Government with boats
manned by union crews, chartering
their boats bare Of crews or having
them commandeered. 1t is expected
that this move will enable the mer-
chant ships which have been unable to
obtain bunker coal to proceed with
their coaling and at the same time it
probably will eliminate any possibility
OF coal famine In New York city.
Several of the largest ocean liners
have been held up for several days be-
cause of the strike and the consequent
inability of procure COAL and some
have had to go to Halifax for enough
coal to make the transatlantic voyage.
Under the arrangement made yester-
day by the Government all of them
will be able to get coal, but will have
TO depart in ballast, because under pre-
vailing conditions they can get only
such cargo as may be landed at their
sides from railroads cars or other
equipment Of the Railroad Administra-
ton.
