WOODROW WILSON. The White House, November 5, igip.Whereas, the United States Fuel Administrator acting under the Text Appearing After Image: THE BOSTON POLICE STRIKE. In September, 1919, the police force of the city of Boston, after certaindemands made by it had been rejected, went on strike, and for hours thecity was at the mercy of the lawless elements of the community. Althoughit was not denied that the police had well-founded grievances, and althoughthey had given warning of their determination to strike in case their demandswere not met, the strike was denounced throughout the country as an attackupon the very foundations of law and order and stable government. (See,for example, President Wilsons remarks on page 8796.) The refusal ofGovernor Coolidge of Massachusetts to yield to the strikers made him anational figure overnight, and was largely responsible for his nomination forthe vice-presidency by the Republican Party in 1920. The illustration shows a company of Massachusetts militia awaitingassignment to police duty. Until a new and adequate police force could berecruited, Boston was policed by the militia.
