Last Sunday and the Sunday before, pilgrims to Holy Hill beheld, at the gates, men bearing placards: THE HUTTER CONSTRUCTION CO. ON THIS JOB IS UNFAIR TO ORGANIZED LABOR. The pickets—union carpenters, hod carriers and common laborers from Milwaukee—wore their Sunday best, molested no one, explained they were protesting because George Hutter, Fond du Lac contractor who is building a $163,000 seminary for the Carmelites, maintains an open shop, pays low wages...
