 ARE ENF FORCED
Republican A. p. Leased WlreI

NEW YORK, April 25-Lines tend ing toward nation wide strike on May of more than 175,000 unionized marine engineers, firemen and sea- men were closely drawn here today when the unions refused to consider a new contract proposed by the own CTS carrying wage cuts averaging 25 to 35 per cent.
 The engineers, through their na- tional president, William R. Ryan, followed their refusal by issuing a strike order effective that date if the cut is put into effect. The firemen and seamen. through Andrew Furu- seth, president of the International Seamen's union, said their men had voted on the matter and they too would quit if the wage cut was made effective. Overseas and coaStwiSe American flagships on the Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico and Pacific will be in- volved unless the differences are ad- justed.
 At the close of the conference today 1t was announced that Admiral Ben son, chairman of the United States shipping board, had called a confer ence of representatives of the own CTS and unions to meet next Wednes- day at Washington It was indicated that federal influence will be used to bring about an agreement and pre- vent a strike.
 The conferences today was the cul- imitation of series of meetings be- tween representatives of the unions and the owners The engineers last week announced wage cut would not be accepted and today the declaration was reiterated. AZ previous confer ences the firemen and seamen insist ed that wage questions be made sec ondary to enforcement of alleged vii olations of the La Toilette law, abol- ishment of the shipping boards sea service, ,bureau and preference in en- ployment of union men. The answer of the owners today was that the La Toilette seamen's law was federal reau was a government agency. It was further stated that this bureau was furnishing American ships with seamen, 80 per cent of whom were American citizens, while the seamen's s union were furnishing a negligible percentage of Americans. Prefer ence in employment of union men de- was declared to be discrimination against Americans and the demands were refused.
 As a result of the refusal, Mir. Flu ruseth and his associates left the meeting and declared that the men would refuse to work after May l, if the wage reduction was put into effect.
