Their comrades elsewhere in the islands are expected to fol low suit today. The peace plan, advanced hope fully by a fact-finding board and accepted reluctantly by employers, was rejected, 826 to 59. The board proposed a raise of 14 cents an hour. The workers in striking 60 days ago demanded 32 cents on top of their current hourly wage of $1.40. Wearily, Acting Gov. Oren E. Long said he would ask the two sides to resume collective bar gaining. “Surely, there must be some way this strike can be end ed,” he added. The CIO International Long shoremen’s and Warehousemen^ Union, however, indicated it was preparing for a long struggle. Harry Bridges, union president, is flying from San Francisco Tuesday or Wednesday to take over personal direction of the strike. Henry Schmidt, ILWU official, declared that if violent attempts were made to break the strike, longshoremen along the whole Pa cific Coast would shut down. stevedores cheered a message from Mr. Bridges saying $2,500 was coming at once for strike relief. More financial support was promised from Portland and San Francisco stevedores. Employers offered a wage In crease of 12 cents an hour in an attempt to head off the strike. They insist stevedores here have steadier pay and better working conditions than those on the mainland. The stevedores walked through a “peoples’ picket” line as they en tered a school building where the balloting took place. The 250 pickets, most of them women, urged the stevedores to ac cept 14 cents. President Truman in Washing ton indorsed the plan. So did the newspapers, the Honolulu Catholic diocese and the Philippine consul general. Most of the stevedores are Filipinos. The Honolulu stevedore local is Hawaii’s largest. But a total of about 1,100 others were voting to day on the islands of Hawaii, Maui and Kauai. It was believed generally that the vote in Honolulu clearly fore casts a rejection elsewhere.
