The article discusses U.S. labor issues. The Ford Motor Company has tried to prevent the organization of its outlying assembly plants by the same methods that it has used at the giant Ford plant in Dearborn, Michigan, methods which were outlined in the decision against the Ford Company recently handed down by the U.S. National Labor Relations Board. These include the establishment of company unions, the open flouting of the principle of collective bargaining, the use of thugs to coerce workers and to beat organizers, and the use of the machinery of the city government both to assure the immunity of the thugs and to harass union workers with false arrests and police intimidation.
