Next Round of Longshoremen Talks Set for Aug. 22-24

Talks between shipping interests and the International Longshoremen's Association will resume Aug. 22-24, when small committee meetings are scheduled, U.S. Maritime Alliance Chairman James Capo told us. The Alliance and the union had announced agreement in principle on several issues last month (See ITT's Online Archives [Ref.12072023]) and said they planned to meet again on other national issues, as well as local port issues, but didn't say when.
