say they were told absolutely nothing
about the strike.

about coming here until they regained
consciousness on the train AS soon as
the men arrived here and discovered the
true conultica cf affairs they elected a
committee of three to see whether or not
legal proceedings charging shanghaing
and breach of contract could not be
brought against the transit company.
