SHIPPING BOARD
SOUNDS WARNING
TO LONGSHOREMEN

Washington, Oct. 17.-Warning to
striking longshoremen on the Atlantic
coast that steps to operate govern
ment ships without them are in con-
temptation was contained in a state
ment issued today by the shipping
board. 1t was understood troops might
be employed to handle the ships in
port as in the case Of transports. The
statement follows:
The delay on the part of longshore-
men on the Atlantic coast in aband-
ing their unauthorized strike in vio-
lation in their agreement to abide by
the awards of the national adjustment
commission makes it necessary for
the United States shipping board to
give immediate consideration to the
working of the ships under it's control.
This delay is resulting in great
in convenience TO the public, in a
serious interruption in the operation
of the merchant marine, and in an ap-
palling economic waste. This is a
condition which cannot be permitted to
continue. and a remedy must be found
at once to sustain these awards and
carry on the business of the country.
