We even 57 00:04:00,573 --> 00:04:02,507 called in the Pinkertons, but their speciality 58 00:04:02,509 --> 00:04:04,476 is administering beatings, 59 00:04:04,478 --> 00:04:07,078 not weeding out extremists.

I mean, who can blame them? A lot of these workers 77 00:05:00,934 --> 00:05:02,834 came back from the war only to end up 78 00:05:02,902 --> 00:05:05,804 earning peanuts in factories owned by war profiteers. 79 00:05:05,872 --> 00:05:08,707 Yeah, if you made it back.

Most of them 94 00:05:52,852 --> 00:05:54,786 came to us during the war, and then when their husbands 95 00:05:54,788 --> 00:05:58,289 didn't return...
