MURDER CHARGES
FILED AGAINST COPS
Police, With Guns and Tear Gas
Bombs, Assault the Marching
Throng in Effort to Halt Pa
rade Past Republic Plant.

CHICAGO (ILNS.) - Industrial
fascism in its usual form of strike
breaking police struck at the Re-
public Steel plant in South Chicago
with the usual results. Five strik-
ers, one of them a veteran of the
World War, are dead. More than
100 men, all but tw~enty-odd of them
steel workers and bystanders, were
treated in the hospital. Van A. Bit
ner, head of the Steel Workers Or
ganizing Committee in this territory,
is demanding that the police in
volved in the scrap be indicted for
first degree murder.
The trouble began on May % when
police stopped a line of about a
thousand strikers, who were armed
only with American flags. One of
the coppers was struck on the head
with a flag pole; but this was not
the first sign of the encounter. The
flag bearer was badly beaten by the
police, who used their riot clubs; the
strikers used their fists and an occa-
sional brickbat. Several shots were
fired by the police; but there is no
evidence that men were wounded by
gunfire that day.
Police Halt Marckers
The next day, there was a breath
ing space at the Republic plant. On
May 30, the main riot broke. Fifteen
hundred paraders, marching four
abreast, started toward the Republic
gates. They were armed, as before,
with American flags. Police, under
Captain James Kilroy of the Chicago
force, halted the strikers more than
a block from the gates. Strong words
were exchanged, a brick which hit
no one was thrown from the ranks of
the paraders; and then the shooting
began.
Police Fire First Shots
All witnesses, except the captain of
police, agreed that the first shots
were fired by a policeman, shooting
over the heads Of the strikers. His
