trust demands all the work and that
IL be taken away from the anti-trust
citizens. A riot breaks out and the
labor trust seeks to destroy the court
house and force the people TO so into /
their pockets and pay the losses The |
peace officers OF ne people. In their |
pay seek TO preserve the peace and |
save the property; Immediately the un- |
Ions protest and exert every means |
ga their power TO prevent the officers
fom protecting the people and their
property.
This same policy crops out in every
effort OF the community 70 protect
itself and the common people from the
: oppression Of the labor trust. The
leaders oppose the police, oppose the
militia, the courts, laws manual train-
/ ing schools. education OF apprentices
and every other act or movement thai
