Delano grape strike denounced as fiction by grower leader
Testimony before a subcommittee quotes Martin Zaninovich calling the Delano grape strike a gross piece of fiction while asserting that about 5,000 regular workers rejected union organizing. He cites a March 13 Market News Service report showing higher grape shipments than the previous year. Rev. R B Moore and others discuss civil rights dynamics in Delano, arguing harmony and local negotiation rather than agitation.
