BY the Associated Press.


SAN FRANCISCO, January g.
A Federal conciliator reported "set-
tlement psychology" is enveloping the
72-day maritime tie-up tonight as
some of the striking unions moved
toward q vote on peace proposals.
The end of the costly labor struggle

group-the coastwise ships, which
carry about 10 per cent Of the West

expressed the belief no adjustment
would be reached except through that
course.

shore operators. This proposal in
wolves an employer offer of wapo
increases. union recognition and a
guarantee against discrimination in
exchange for unrestricted freedom of
the owners to choose ships officers.

weeks ago reached a tentative agree
ment with the coastwise operators
involving a boost in pay from s62 SO
to $50 a month, asked for a revision
