Since the strike caught them at thebeginning of production on the new number 40 model of the Buick car, their sole aim was to get the men back as quickly as pos- sible. Now they can repeat what they did in Cleveland, St, Louis, Tarrytown, N. Y., and other places; drag negotiations out definitely un- til they have piled up production and are ready to lay men off. Not a single one of the men’s demands—restoration of the old wage rates, which had been cut 25 to 40 per cent, reinstatement of 25 victimized workers, slowing down of speed-up and union recognition— was even considered. At last night’s meeting of the lo- cal, Dillon was the chief speaker.

I myself have prevented the Slaughter of an innocent soul who, not knowing what was behind him, spoke irreverently of a minor out- fielder of that territory. Brooklyn is a place as demonstra- tive as St. Louis or Cincinnati. The terrer that was once exercised in those cities against outside baseball teams and their partisans was hor- rible. St. Louis is where pop bottles were thrown by every one who got into the ball park—man, woman or child—and the people of Cincinnati once chased the Giants all the way down to the railroad station, with bricks and clubs and fifty hoses streaming water. ‘ EAVING aside, however, the few cities which have not been wholly fight with Minneapolis on the way to hell.
