The workers, anxious for the meet- njing to go on, jeered the police and demanded the meeting to continue. The police, more than a dozen in number then commenced to attack the crowd. The workers put up such a stiff resistance that one policeman was reported as a hospital casualty. Calling reserves, the police, now in a savage revengeful mood descended upon the Workers Center, 35 East 12th AMUSEMENTS Street and smashing the door panes, broke into the building. The intentions of the uniformed thugs to smash the offices of the Workers Center was frustrated by the barred doors.
