Mr. Reed had said his company had attempted to protect workers at the Donnelly plant from “hor- rors” with which he declared they were threatened by I. L. G. W. U. organizers. Girl workers at plants near the Donnelly plant were strip- ped and beaten, he said, for refusing to join I. L. G. W. U.

He also attributed to the company a campaign to “coerce” the workers into not joining I. L. G. W. U.
