The strike came at a time when {1t would affect docking of the French liner Bourdonna!s and the Savole, ibnlh of which were due today. Each requires the services of a half dozen [ tugboats to bo . brought alongside | thefr North river plers. Most of the tugs not affccted by the strike order | are government and rallroad craft. | Ships scheduled to sail withs mail |today were the liners Columbia for | Greece, Munargo for the Bahamas, Flora for the West Indles, Santa Ro- salia for Buenos Afres and the Marval for Georgetown, West Indies. The Olympic is scheduled to sall at midnight for Southampte., to be fol- lowed a few minutes later by the Pennland for Antwerp. Three large ships, the Berengarfa, Columbus and Conte Rocco, are due tomorrow. The walkout was ordered by the Tugmen's Unlon, and Associated Marine Workers, 1t was asserted, after the tugboat owners had failed to answer a letter declaring that a {change in existing time and pay schedules would be demanded on Aprll 1. It followed a preliminary strike when the men on 12 tugs of ‘thg Dalgell Towing company walk- | ed out last Tuesday in the hope of docking | 1 Lindvall, | opening negotiations with ghe own- | ers.

One more company, the Meseck | Tow ing and Transportation company operating thirteen tugs, reported ft- self affected by the strike.
