- Description:
- Uniformed police officer wearing riot helmet holds demonstrator in choke hold from behind, as other officers assist him. Union tradesmen were demonstrating against Shell Oil for using non union workers, the confrontations which were often violent continued until a district judge intervened to negotiate a settlement. "The result was a "voluntary" settlement in which the trades council called off its picketing and violence while the two companies remained open shop, but the contractor's "compromise" in the deal was an agreement to "donate" $250,000 to the Kalkaska Township so that it could employ more local union members," from Freedom in the Workplace: The Untold Story of Merit Shop Construction's Crusade Against Compulsory Trade Unionism, by Samuel Cook.
