10 Vessels Tied Up
As Workers Tighten
New York Strike
Maritime Labor Bourd
Offer Rejected
By Union
By the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, Nov. 4.-Ten vessels
were tied up in New York today
by Tightening strike of 5000 long
snoremen and other pier workers
against nine coastal shipping COM
panies.
Rejecting an offer by the Mari
time Labor Board in Washington to
arbitrate the dispute, Joseph p.
Ryan. president of the 1nterna-
tional Longshoremen's Association
CA. F. L., indicated the union was
prepared for long fight to win its
demands for a 40-hour week and
5-cent-an-hour wage increase.
The longshoremen now get 95
cents an hour on a 44-hour work
week.
The two-day-old walkout threat
ened to paralyze coastal shipping
out of this port and throw 10000
Atlantic Seaboard and Gulf mari
time employees out of work, includ-
ing 5000 shore workers. hundreds of
Office employees and $500 sailors and
others hired on 73 freighters and
passenger liners owned by coastal
lines.
The strike did not involve trans
Atlantic shipping or intercoastal
steamship lines operating between
the Atlantic and Pacific Coasts by
way of the Panama Canal
The coastal companies, insisting
they could not afford to meet the
I. L. A. wage demands, met the
strike by widespread canceling of
sailings and an announcement they
no longer were in position to carry
cargo shipments in or out of the
New York port.
"The next move is up to the un-
ion" spokesman said.
In refusing the arbitration offer
Of the Maritime Labor Board, Mr..
Ryan accused DR.. Louis Block, board
member, of being sympathetic to
"the Communistic dual longshore-
men organization on the Pacific
Coast"
He referred to the rival c. I. O.s
West Coast International Long,
shoremen and Warehousemen Asso-
citation, led by Harry Bridges, whom
Mr.. Ryan often has assailed as a
Communist.
I'VE would like to see the Mari
time Labor Board abolished Mr..
Ryan told reporters.
