Assistant Secretary of Labor, John W. Gibson, and Captain
Granville Conway, Administrator of the War Shipping Administration,
gave the President a report on the manner in which negotiations have
been proceeding in the threatened work stoppage of seven maritime
unions now scheduled for June 15.
The President stated that this dispute was being handled
exclusively by the Department of Labor, and that any other steps
Mother agencies
being taken/are not designed as a threat, but are purely precautionary.
He expressed the hope that the parties will continue to cooperate with
the Conciliation Service of the Department of Labor in working out a
solution to the matters in dispute. From what the President heard,
he feels that there is nothing in this situation which cannot be
resolved through collective bargaining and hopes that both sides will
buckle down and settle this matter through collective bargaining, which
is still the American way of settling labor disputes.
