ORGANIZATIONAL HISTORY

In January 1949 when the parties could not agree upon the terms of a new contract the union struck. When the strike was settled, it was agreed to submit to arbitration the following issues which the parties could not agree upon: payment of a 12% wage increase, retroactive to January 1, 1949; in lieu of overtime charges, a flat sum of $28 per month on non-propelled barges; when required to go on dock or aboard to make hose connections, a $2 payment per voyage made on self propelled vessels; and tying up vessels at midnight.
The issues were submitted to a panel from the American Arbitration Association made up of David L. Cole, chairman, Edward C. Maguire and Bert Reinauer. Hearings were begun in August 1949 and resumed in October 1949.
