ployers who agree to recognize the
longshoremen's union. and hire
help direct from union halls. The
proposal is to be considered to
day.'
j Beck said “Our biggest obligation

! tli ink there should be a separate
agreement between Alaskan opera

Alaskan shipping can be released
Immediately.’’

proposals for cooperative opera

[and making use of subterfuge,
i Three thousand strikers ununi
imousiy -decided In San Franctwo
I today that they would not accept
!the offers, while seven hundred
and fifty member* of the Tacoma
union indicated they would vote
, likewise, when the longshoremen

secret vote, .probably by Friday,
when a majority vote of the en
tire coast will be taken to deter
mine the acceptance or rejection
of the proposal offered by employ
ers last Monday.
The spokesman of the Los An
geles union predicted an earlv
settlement of the strike.
At Marshfield. Oregon, strikers
voted to return to work when
they obtained permission front the
International Longshoremen’s' As
sociation.
Delegates of the northwest lo
cal unions voted to make no more
exceptions allowing the loading of
vessels carrying food for Alaska,
asserting that no emergency exists
there, because two Canadian lin
es are still serving the Territory.
