E. Ray, a | textile worker, said he saw the officers | knock two of the picketers down and | heard Gilbert make his threat about | cleaning out the union headquarters. | Witness Is Ridiculed. * Ray testified further that Mrs. Mc- | Ginnis had informed Gilbert she had | Jost her glasses and that the officer re- | plied” he didn't believe she had any. | To Mrs. McGinnis' retort that they | were likely in the officer's pocket, Ray | quoted Gilbert as saying he was “full- | blooded Irish and liked to fight.
