South Chicago sie?-! production ceaBed en? tirely. Five independent plants in Hammond and four in East Chicago continued in operation through agreements with the unions. In Gary threats of a race war and nn undercurrenl of hostility agninsl the men who remained at work caused the police considerable anxiety and brought a dozen union organizers to the front in an aclis?' campaign to shut down the plants.
