| Description: | Same as catalog # 340401 Veterans of foreign wars, Socialists, and Reds successively occupy union square park, eash offering their ideas on the economic situation, without display of tempers. Red hordes are urged to action by speakers, but nothing happens to disturb the bored bluecoats. Signs by the Communists say: "Smash Jim-Crow Laws," "Read Daily Workers, Mass Organizer of the Working Class," "We Demand Free Food for Children of the Unemployed." | |
