Living cost statistics which viii

USED CAR CODE
RULE STARTS

The used car section of the

UNLOADING Of

No Violence Is Manifested As
First Ship Discharges;
Pay Increase Sought

BALTIMORE, Dec. 1.-Several
hundred extra policemen were on
duty along Baltimore's waterfront
today to quell any disturbances
which might occur when cargoes
are taken from ships during a
longshoremen's strike.
Everything was peaceful, how
ever, as the first of the cargo
ships locked this morning, and
authorities felt somewhat easier
about the situation.
The strikers contend that the
Moore and Mccormick Steamship
Company uses non-union men on
its coastwise vessels, and Union
m en- on its other trades. The
line has refused to meet the long
Shoremen's demand that steve
dores in the coaStwise trade be
paid IS cents instead Of IS cents
an hour for straight time, and
$1.10 an hour for overtime.
The Moore and Mccormick
Company, together with other
shipping lines, contend that their
contracts with the longshoremen's
union exempts men employed on
OoaStWiSe vessels.
Reports that Strikebreakers
were on their way from New York
to Baltimore could not be con-
firmed by company officials, but
thew admitted having asked for
police protection for the unload
ing of the boats.
