SCAB HUNTS BY COMMANDOES.
BRUTAL TREATMENT OF MEN
■iV CAiii/t:
—l*Kfcßß ASSOCIATION —COPYEIGHi CAPETOWN, Feb. 21.
Strikers at Benoni rushed a trolley escorted by twenty police carrying a
free labourer's furniture. They poured petrol and burned the furniture and then entered the house and smashed the remainder of the furniture. They seriously wounded the owner and two policemen. Heavy police reinforcements arrived and rounded up the strikers in the workers' hall.
Other reports state that commandoes of strikers are engaged in what are called scab hunts at Germiston and other centres, causing consternation. They are committing serious acts. They captured and stripped three men going to work and placed obnoxious labels on others. Police attempting to rescue them were stoned and some were injured. The commandoes are concentrating at Germiston.
Further trouble is feared and the authorities are preparing to take drastic action.
Reports from Johannesburg state that several men returning to work
were brutally attacked
