ALBRIGHT GivES ELA VIEWPOINT ON
 SHIPPING DISPUTE

Verne Albright, secretary Of the Ketchikan local of the Information al Longshoremen's Association and secretary of the Ketchikan Indust- rial Council today was interviewed at the CIO Convention concerning the background of the recent ship ping difficulties at Ketchikan and Seward.
 From the union viewpoint, said Albright, there has been on strike by Alaskan longshoremen. On December II, he stated. the union representatives met with the Ket- chikan waterfront employers rep resenting the steamship companies. At that meeting a verbal agree ment was reached that only one hatch on Alaskan ships was to be worked by crew members of the Sailors Union of the Pacific. If an additional lCngshore crew were needed, a gang would also be hired 10 work the second hatch on board the ship.
 This agreement, if adhered to-, would mean for Ketchikan a pay roll increase Of approximately one third, and similar increases in long shore payroll over the Territory, said Albright.
 However. when the North Sea arrived in Ketchikan, the SUP re- fused to allow the longshore crews to take over the second hatch and claimed jurisdiction in the case from the agreement which had ] been signed in Seattle applying to steam schooners.
 i Alaskan ships, said Albright, are nat steam schooners, and the agreement cannot apply So the longshoremen refused to work more than one hatch at a time and the shipping companies cleim- cd it was a strike. But ships con- tinued to be unloaded, and Ketchi- kan dock and storage space was al a premium.
