Public stance on Boston police desertion and Coolidge support
Editorial praises Police Commissioner Curtis and Governor Coolidge for backing law and order after 1000 Boston police officers deserted posts in solidarity with 19 discharged for disobedience. Gompers urged a broad view, but Coolidge emphasizes legality and state sovereignty while denouncing the strike as a threat to public safety. Public opinion is cited as a powerful, generally right-leaning force.
