Description
Pickets are shown parading in a circle at the main gate of the strikebound North American Aviation plant. The company employs 11,000 workers and C.I.O. leaders said that 9000 men were actually on strike while the other 2000 were thrown out of work as a result of the walkout. The union asks 75 cents an hour instead of the present 50 cents. Photo dated: June 5, 1941.
