Neither was most of the competition. When the nine other newspaper unions refused to cross the Guild picket line, the papers belonging to the New York Publishers Association-the Her-a'd Tribune, Daily News, Journal-American, World-Telegram, Long Island Daily Press and Star-Journal-shut down too. Of the city's major dailies, only the New York Post, which does not belong to the association, was still on newsstands-a situation that served as an ominous reminder of 1962's 114-day newspaper strike, which crippled the city's papers and helped send...
...convinced the membership that a union is like a tollgate and that all it does is collect dues. There isn't the feeling there used to be for the whole labor movement. Our own printers aren't interested in how the cab Drivers are being organized. A picket line is an annoyance...
Orthodox women began to picket the Reb's house, shouting "Whore-lover!" and demanding to know why their daughters were not good enough for him.

American Christianity's desire to say and do something relevant about social problems of the day has propelled clergymen out of the pulpit and onto civil rights picket lines.

Riding Piggyback. Relations between the two unions have long been uneasy and lately have further deteriorated. Jurisdictional disputes have flared as both unions have vied to organize proofreaders, stencil clerks and driver-mailers. The Guild refused to honor I.T.U. picket lines at three Toronto dailies last year and helped break the strike. In retaliation, the I.T.U. crossed the Guild's picket lines at two Hearst newspapers in Albany and helped break that strike; last May, after the Guild struck the Baltimore Sun, I.T.U. President Elmer Brown ordered his printers back to work...
