Tense Situation Today In UniRoyal Strike

IN SOLID MASS, non-union employes of Uniroyal Footwear Plant in Naugatuck head for work at 7 a.m. today, after assembling on The Green, in background. Police halted the crowd and sent back to the Green. The company proposed that the women be sent home and the male employes be allowed through the picket lines, but the union rejected the idea. It was shortly after that that violence erupted again.—Coviello Photo.
