AMERICAN SHIPPING DISPUTE
THE PACIFIC COAST DEADLOCK COMMISSION OFFERS SERVICES Press Association —By Telegraph—Copyright WASHINGTON. October 7. In' an effort to settle tho Pacific shipping deadlock, Mr Edward M'Grady, the Assistant Secretary for Labour, will confer with the Maritime Commission to-morrow, and then leave by air for the Pacific Coast to present the commission’s views. It was said that the commission, which is headed by Rearadmiral Wiley, will probably offer its services without pressure on the owners and the sailors. Mr Harry Lunenberg, head of the Sailors’ Union of the Pacific, to-day presented the organisation’s demand that the commission should exert pressure on the ship owners, who, he said, “ received millions in subsidies and refused to discuss wages, hours, and conditions.” However, he pointed out that three joint conferences between the owners and sailors had been held in the past 60 days.
