New York Longshoremen
Return To Work But
More Stoppages Expected
NEW YORK, UFi — Longshore
men went back to work on New
York’s docks bright and early
Tuesday in compliance with a
court order halting their “no con
tract, no work” strike in East
Coast ports.
In hiring shapeups at several
piers, several hundred members
of both the International Long
shoremen’s Association which was
recently evicted from the AFL
and members of a new rival AFL
union reported for duty speedily
and without incident.
There were no mixed work
gangs, however, for the rival
unions control workers at differ
ent piers. The court order issued
Monday night enjoining further
strike activity for 10 days under
Taft-Hartley Law provisions left
unsettled the basic jurisdictional
dispute between the ILA and the
new AFL organization, and there
have been indications of further
work stoppages in the inter-union
struggle.

President Gives 10 Million
For Farmers to Buy Hay
In 13 Drought Areas
WASHINGTON UP) — President
Eisenhower made 10 million dol
lars available from his emergency
funds Wednesday to buy winter
hay suplies for farmers in 13
drought stricken states.
Secretary of Agriculture Ben
son announced the President’s
action after an early morning
White House conference with the
President. *
Benson said his department also
has decided to give financial aid
to states in the actual transporta
tion of hay into stricken areas.
The 10 million dollars is in ad
dition to 40 million authorized
by Congress earlier this year to
buy seed and feed for distressed
farmers.
Since last June Eisenhower had
designated 13 states as drought
disaster areas..
So far 29 of the 40 millions
voted by Congress have been
spent and Benson said the re
maining funds will not carry the
relief program much beyond this
month.
