Strikers Win at San Francisco Endorse Settlement
Pacific Stevedoring and Ballast Company agreed unconditionally to the demands of the striking stevedores. 200 men returned to work. The settlement is expected to restore peace and victory for the workers. Hortense Boyd, six, was injured when a rock thrown by a boy while playing in the street cut her lip and required a surgeon’s needle.
