involved was 37,772. Eight deaths
have resulted, and 157 persons were
injured, according to police reports.
Five thousand three hundred extra
police and deputy sheriffs have been
on strike duty at a cost of $4,000 to
the city and county. The cost to the
teamsters in wages and assessments
has been $750,000, and the cost to
the employers, including loss of busi-
ness, is estimated at $12,000,00O.
