Tempers shortened amid the broiling heat. Among the workers were organizers for the radical labor I union, the Industrial Workers of the World, who agitated for better pay and working conditions. On August 7, Six Companies played into the agitators' hands by cutting wages for muckers (above), I who shoveled out the tunnels following blasts. Six Companies attributed the pay cut to new equip- ment and a shift in personnel; nevertheless, a week-long strike ensued. Reacting to the strike, the Bureau of Reclamation erected a gate at the border of the federal reservation. Armed guards required work identification from anyone entering, and they confiscated liquor and other contraband. The strikers, waiting to be rehired (above), demanded higher wages, pure water and flush toilets at the River Camp, and ice water and changing rooms at the job sites. |
