MARTIE STRKE PR CALE One of Four Conferences to Deal With ‘Toughest’ Prob- lem in Negotiations. 87 the Associated Press. SAN FRANCISCO, January 7.— Negotiators called four new peace con- ferences today in & spreading attack on issues of the 70-day Pacific Coast maritime strike. One session was scheduled on the so-called “toughest” problem—prefer- ential union hiring for ships' officers. This all-important issue involved off-shore shippers and the Masters, Mates' and Pilots of America, who asked for renewal of negotiations with employers after they had deadlocked over the union's demand. Operators stood firm on declarations they would never relinquish the right to choose officers as they wished. Assistant Labor Secretary'Edward F. McGrady characterized this issue as “the toughest nut to crack” and said once it is settled “we will get some- where.” The operators had offered the offi- eers' union increased pay, cash for overtime and recognition. Unofficial sources said it was un- derstood the union would consider dropping its demand for preferential hiring if it meant another stalemate in negotiations. Other meetings were scheduled between the off-shore operators and the radio telegraphists and the cooks and stewards. Coastwise freight operators and marine engineers called & conference seeking to complete & tentative agree- ment which union spokesmen said provided & $20 monthly wage increase for certain classifications and union employment preference, “virtually amounting to the closed shop.” The new wage scale would range from $135 to $245 monthly. 2 The district council of the Inter- national Longshoremen's Association issued s bitter reply to the Tuesday night strike radio talk of Mayor An- gelo Rossi, who blamed personal am- bitions of Harry Bridges, Coast I. L. A. president, for delaying peace. Bridges, whose health was causing concern to strike leaders, joined in the attack, which declared the Mayor vesorted to “lies and misstatements.” LABOR BOARD APPROVED. Has “Exclusive Jurisdiction” in Dis- pute, Judge Rules. NEW YORK, January 7 (#).—Su- preme Court Justice Aaron Steuer ruled yesterday that the National Labor Relations Board had “exclusive Jurisdiction” to settle the rival claims of insurgent strike leaders and inter- national union officers to represent maritime workers of the East and Gulf coasts in negotiations with ship- owners. Jack Lawrenson, second in com- mand to Joe Curran, insurgent strike leader, coupled a denial of statements by international officers that the strike was breaking down with an an- nouncement that the Labor Relations Board would be asked to conduct an election of maritime workers.
