STEVEDORE COMPANY
TO Be FORMED HERE

For sometime past a number OF
local men have been interested IN
the formation OF a ~atevedores COM
pany in this city and from indication
at this time 1t is likely that within
the course of a few weeks such a
company will be in operation here.
The names OF those interested in h
new project could not be obtained,
but it is understood that they are
all leading business men in this city.
During the past years, when a yes
sci from some foreign port dockeo
in the plants here. II has been the
custom for the plant to send to a
stevedore company in New York for
men TO unload the cargo. These men
have been brought TO the vessel and
furnished meals and board until the
unloading process had been complet-
ed. They were also employed to load
the vessel in case 1t was TO take a
cargo 10 a foreign port. OF course
some of the factories have main
tanned their own men fol- this work.
but it Is understood that in the ma
iority of cases the men employed
for this work were brought in from
New York.
The plan to be carried out by the
company is TO employ local men as
steyedores and thus do away with
the necessity of bringing to the
plants in this city. labor from New
York. II is maintained that local
labor should be employed for this
purpose and II a company TO handle
his class of labor is formed here II
is the opinion OF many that local
men will be employed by the various
industries to handle the cargo on
incoming and outgoing ships.
