The Hawaii Citizen, bound for Gulf ports and the west coast, is expected to stay at Morehead City until the strike ends and it can take on its cargo. Longshoremen walked off the job in New York City late Thursday. Another negotiating meeting be tween the International Longshore men's Association and the New York Shipping Association, an em ployer group, was scheduled to be held at 2 p.m. yesterday. Head of the local longshoremen's union is Leroy Guthrie, Morehead City. Issues at Stake Issues in the dispute are wage increases, length of contract, size of work gangs, weight of sling loads and a demand for a guaran teed eight-hour work day. Shippers have offered a 38 cent package pay increase over a three year period. That would have pushed the basic wage to $2.80 an hour, with 32 cents of the increase in a direct pay boost. The present pay is $2.48 an hour. The union agreed on the amount but wanted the raise over a two year period instead of three. The Hawaii-Citizen, due to take tobacco to South Pacific ports and Japan, docked at Morehead City Friday morning, arriving here from Baltimore. The ship is owned by the Matson Line, under contract to States Marine. She is manned by an American crew. Fortunately, no other ships will be held up at Morehead City if the strike is settled soon.
