SEAMEn DEMANDING
LOST CONDITIONS

Wage increases along the Atlantic
coast is demanded BY the Information.
al Seamen's Union
This may have no significance to
the average reader OF the daily press,
but not so to the United States ship
ping board and to private vessel own
ers, who started q lockout against
this union two years ago. The eight
hour day was abolished. wages re-
duced and general anti-union policy
assumed.
Officers Of the union urged arbitra-
tion, but this was refused. The sea
men asked the board and the private
vessel owners to agree to give Ameri-
can citizens first preference in en-
ployment. This also was refused.
The seamen were defeated all along
the line, while the board and the pri-
vate vessel owners talked about the
need for Americans becoming inter.
ested in the merchant marine.
The seamen, however, were neith-
er fooled nor discouraged. They be-
gan to reform their lines and are now
prepared to again give battle
