J.. during the Industrial Workers of the World strike in the silk mills. and heard such stuff preached to the foreign workers. the majority of whom had not been in the United States two years. I heardit translated to them in their various languages. I heard the poor foreigners iold that they had lost the strike. but if they would go back to the mills and secretly ruin as many bolts of silk as possible they would win the next strike. They were told to drop threads and let dyes run. and that the.time would sobn come when they would themselves run the mills and factories. And they believed it. .ir. Speaker. if I had my way I would not only restrict immigration. bfmt for the present would suspend it.
