New York Has Newspapers After Long Strike. There's a front page story in New York as the presses roll once more after a 114 day blackout of the City's major newspaper. Once again the City rooms hum, the tickers click, the linotypes clank and the smell of printer's ink is in the air. The strike cost is estimated at $450,000,000 and the strikers won $12.63 weekly benefits. Housewives won, too - ever try to line a bureau drawer with a radio? Nice shots of news room - machines, etc. Aerial shot of New York s skyline, Circa 1963. MS - Papers rolling on the press. MS - Newspaper men working at a table.
