"The other is to agree with the Maritime Commission- and th" un ion and the industry as against the WSB. "These are the alternatives." Ross emphasized that Steelman is acting under authority of the wage price executive order of last Feb ruary which subjected wage in creases to federal approval before they could be used as a level to raise prices to increase charges against ?he government. Fven as unionists moved to tight en their stranglehold 011 every deep en port, the WSB last night declar ed again that the AFL seafarers must be content with the wage in creases in the "pattern" set earlier for CIO seamen. Thus the White House found itself squarely on the spot where ii must make the decision that- may write , labor-management history. W. Willard Wirtz. chairman of the wage board, spelled out the issue ' last night when he assorted that while idle ships arc involved.?"so is the future of economic stability, I not only in the shipping industry but in American industry generally. Every person in this country has a stake in avoiding wage spirals to day which can only mean higher prices tomorrow." The AFL sailors, who quit worx a week ago in angry protest against the WSB's shaving Sid and 55 off pay boosts won respectively by cast md west roast seamen, replied by pledging a fight "to the bitter end."
