...Union on the West Coast, once walloped a cop in a picket-line brawl, was hauled off to headquarters, beaten almost to death -and arose from his knees to cut a swath of destruction with his manacled hands. But Frank Brewster decided he wanted to be more than a brick-fisted mug. See NATIONAL AFFAIRS, From Goon to Gent...

There two secretaries are already at work, pounding on their typewriters (the association receives and answers upwards of 100 letters a day), or cranking a Mimeograph machine to turn out official notices to the Negro population. King's desk is in a cramped, yellow...
