Protest Against the Rockefeller Mine Strikes
The photograph shows “Wild Joe” O’Carroll addressing the I.W.W. mass
meeting in Mulberry Road Park. New York city, held in protest of the Labor war
at the mining properties of the Rockefeller interests in Colorado. The young
woman next to O’Carroll is Miss Marie Ganz, who invaded the Rockefeller offices
at 26 Broadway, and threatened to kill John D. Rockefeller, Jr., if he
continued to refuse to put an end to the strike by complying with the demands
of the strikers.
