Striking ShipbuiIders
Ask Truman 10 Act
BY the Associated Press

CAMDEN N. j., July 5.-John
Green, national president of the CIO
Industrial Union of Marine and
Shipbuilding Workers, today called
on President Truman to invoke his
authority under the Taft-Hartley
Act to end the strike of $1,000 ship
workers on both coasts
IT am convinced that effective
means and power for bringing
about just and speedy termination
of this strike. more properly to be
called lockout, are in your hands,
Mr.. Green said in a letter to the
White House as the work stoppage
entered its 10th day.
"Our union is being compelled to
deplete the resources of its men,
bers in a preventable struggle and
stop work on vessels vitality required
by the Government and the national
economy while the shipbuilding and
ship repair industry of this country
is being dealt a blow at a most
critical time in our history from
which it will take many years to
recover" he declared
Asserting that the President has
assured enforcement of the law, Mr..
Green added:
"It would appear to me and to
the tens of thousands of shipyard
workers in whose name I speak that
under such circumstances it would
be inconceivable that the Secretary
of Labor and the procurement
agencies should not extend every
energy and every resource within
their command to enforce that pub
lie policy and fulfill their President S
promise"
Mr., Green previously said that
management offered specious argu-
ments in calling labor costs too high

Many other valuable awards,
most of them contributed by mer-
chants of the community, were dis
tributed among the young racers
by R. B. Page, representing the
Star-News, and William Raney,
representing the Raney Chevrolet
company, c~o-sponsors of the rae
ing event, and Charles H. Cas-
teen, derby co-chairman.
The list of these special awards
was not available in complete form
last night, but will be published in
the Morning Star tomorrow.
Although threatening clouds
massed from time to time, no rain
fell on the Derby crowd. A hot sun
shone steadily during the after
noon.
The racing event itself was pre-
coded in the forenoon by a street
parade participated in by the Will
mington Post No. 10. American
Legion drum and bugle corps, the
New Hanover high school ROTC
band, and dozens of motor We
hicles carrying Derby day officials.
