Mine Under Guard to Prevent Rioting in Sunnyside
Heavy armed guard protected Sunnyside Ohio near Ballaire to avert a riot between American and foreign miners. About 20 deputies guarded the 400 men at work after foreigners, numbering over two hundred, attempted to bar Americans from returning to work. The strike seeks a six hour day and higher wages, violating the United Mine Workers agreement, prompting authorities to order a return to work. Sheriff Osborne reported five Fort Pitt miners tied to Bolshevik groups amid the unrest.
