CIO Shipyard Workers & SIU at Ira S. Bushey, Brooklyn

Subject

Strikes, Protests, Pickets and Beefs
Industrial Union of Marine and Shipbuilding Workers of America (IUMSWA)
Ira S. Bushey and Sons

Description

"When the strike broke, and picketing started on January 30, shipping was suspended in the New York Hall, and Seafarers went down to join Local 13 on the picketline. They gathered at a central spot, near the Ira S. Bushey and Sons Shipyards in Brooklyn, and then took their places in the line that had, and still has, the yard sewed up tight. See how the Seafarers white caps stand out, even on a cold, rainy day."
