SEV_ERE TREATMENT HANDED T0 “SCABY’ Private Detective Testifies as to What Striker Told Him New Haven, Jan. 6—William Baker who testified be- fore Judge Jame: Webb in the proceedings of the International for an injunction against strikers and others at Meri- den and Wallingford, today, that he was sent to Wallingford twice to ascertain if strikers in the com- pany’s factories in that town were threatenening or trying to intimidate applicants for places. He visited all four factories of the compan at- tended meetings of the strikers, and narrated what he saw and heard. He said he met a man named Saunders, a striker, who told him that severe treatment was handed out to men who went to work as ‘“scabs,” Saun- ders going so far as to say that men “were laid out cold, were thrown off a bridge into the water, and in one instance a man was so badly hurt that he died.” Baker said that Saunders said the strikers did not use their fists in “doing up a scab” but used a “jim- my.” The witness told of what went on in meetings, and said that Saun- ders also had said that the police and merchants were with the strikers and that “scabs” could not get protection or supplies.”” At one meeting Baker, said, Saunders had told him that if he went to work “they will kill you.” Baker said he was a former army man and had been employed as a guard at the Remington plant 1n Bridgeport.
