Mob Chases Workers on Defense Job in Key West
Sheriff Berlin Sawyer vowed to deputize 100 men to guard workers on a 5400,008 defense housing project in Key West after a mob of hooded night riders terrorized carpenters. Two carpenters were beaten and others threatened in their barracks as labor agitator suspicions arose amid threats and a dynamite blast near the cottages. The Preu Company operator Edward Walker reported masked assailants with guns and clubs, asserting labor agitation motives. others linked the harassment to union labor pressures as work paused on the overseas highway connection to the mainland.
