BOMBAY RIOTOUS
OVER STRIKE OF
DOCK WORKERS

Bombay, April 1.-CUP)-Dock
workers on strike and Pathan
(Afghan) strikebreakers clashed
in serious rioting near the Bombay
docks today and later fired many
dwellings in the Pathan section.
First police reports listed one
man killed, twelve seriously injur-
ed, and 20 slightly hurt.
Police fired on the rioters. Fire
hose was played on the battling
mob.
The Pathans We're en- route to
the docks nj motor trucks after
ignoring appeals from strikers to
refrain from strike breaking. Strik-
ers dragged the driver of a truck
from his seat and beat him to
death. A general fight followed.
Sticks and stones were used free
ly.
A fresh group of armed Pathans
attacked the strikers shortly be-
fore police reserves arrived. The
crowd was dispersed. The strik-
ers then reassembled and marched
to the Pathan section where they
set houses on fire and manhandled
members of Pathan families.
Police then rushed the mob and
opened fire.
Eight policemen were injured.
Strong guards were placed in the
affected areas.
Stevedores went on strike here
three weeks ago protesting low
wages and longer working hours.
Contractors recruited Pathans to
replace the strikers. The serious
| riots in Bombay in 1929 followed
importation of Pathans to replace
striking oil workers.
