Bayonne, New Jersey – Strikers Return to Work Defeated
BAYONNE STANDARD OIL STRIKE BROKEN
The arrival in Bayonne, on October 18th, of the Federal Mediators, John A. Moffitt and John A. Smythe from the Department of Labor, proved to be of no benefit to the strikers’ cause. The strike was broken by the defection of the American workers who abandoned their foreign-born fellow workers and returned to work on October 19th.
