MARINE WORKERS
SPURN PROPOSAL
FOR CUT in WAGES
Strike of 100000 Hinges
On Outcome of New
Conference.
By RALPH n. TURNER.

Unless an agreement Is reached
tomorrow the American merchant
marine faces a strike Of 10000 sea-
men and engineers.
A deadlock resulted yesterday be-
tween the ship owners and represen-
tatives Of the seamen's unions. The
latter refused to accept the pro-
posal of Admiral w. s. Benson
chairman of the Shipping Board, for
= Is per cent cut in wages.
Every ship flying the American
dag would be affected il the strike
were called. union leaders say.
Asks More Time.
Andrew Furuseth, president Of the
International Seamen's Union, asked
that the men be allowed further
time to discuss their position
Another session will be held tomor-
row.
The Marine Engineers Union al
ready has announced it's final stand.
william S. Brown, head Of this or
yanization, read a resolution DE-
cIaring that Benson's proposed wage
scale and the suggestion for re-
classification Of ships were not ac-
ceptable.
Tell 'em it's final!" urged mem
bers of the engineers association as
Benson and Furuseth advised fur-
ther consideration.
Issues UItfmatum.
a.If that is an ultimatum.' said
w. E. Thompson, head of the
American Steamship Owners Asso-
citation. in referring 10 the en-
gineers' resolution. There is no use
for us to meet Friday" ?,
Both ship owners and union dele
gates finally agreed to meet again.
The engineers declare they will
not recede from their position. They
insist the present wage scale must
continue and 1t Is feared that
strike among the engineers would
paralyZe the whole merchant fleet
regardless of the action of other
unions.
Demand Enforcement.
The International Seamen's
Union not only objects 60 a wage
cut, but demands enforcement of
the La Toilette seamen's act. which
the ship owners are charged with
violating. Both the seamen and the
engineers have set May l as a ten
tative strike date. if their conten-
tions are refused.
The ship owners have asked a 25
per cent decrease in wages. but
agreed to the Is per cent reduction
suggested by Admiral Benson.
In making wage readjustments,
Benson said, the Shipping Board
proposes to stress the same factor
which was so largely considered in
making increases-the return OF
the purchasing value of the dollar
toward it's normal value as reflected
in the drop in the cost of living"
Benson declared that since 1914
wages on American ships had more
than kept pace with other indus
tries.
