Two Pickets Allowed Near Foundry Plant
The Indianapolis Foundry Company case against three local iron molders unions went to Judge Carter after testimony. The court loosened the temporary restraining order to permit two pickets near the plant until a final decision, citing harm from larger gatherings. The assault on Joseph York and his son drew the judge’s condemnation as a dastardly act by strikers or their friends. He offered to hear evidence on responsibility before the ruling. Dombroski, a striker, faces trial in Criminal Court Monday on an appeal from a Haughville justice where he was fined.
