Strikes Shut Down St Louis Transit Forces Unprecedented Car Use
June 13 St Louis reports a near citywide transport shutdown as street cars and buses halt after a labor strike by local 788 AFL Motor Coach and Streetcar workers. Thousands crowd to work using any wheeled vehicle, traffic snarled, hitchhiking common, and taxis scarce. The strike follows a rejected wage contract offer amid a Missouri bill enabling government seizure of utilities during strikes.
