HOLLYWOOD STRIKE
Police Help Workers To Break Picket Line NEW YORK, October 23. A fresh outbreak of violence in Hollywood resulted in injury to 50 persons, including a policeman, and the arrest of six others when workers crashed through a massed picket line at Paramount studio. The police helped 50 studio workers to break a picket line of 500 strike sympathizers. A possible clash was averted at the Republic Studios, where 150 pickets barred the way to 600 workers when the company president directed the employees over a loudspeaker to return to their homes,
Many pickets assembled at Warner Brothers’ studio. Smaller lines were maintained at other studios where the employees have been on strike for seven mouths.
