Las Vegas workers smash cars during strike
United Press International
LAS VEGAS — Striking ho
tel-casino workers smashed au
tomobiles with their picket signs
Wednesday and bomb threats
were received at a number of
gambling palaces along the Las
Vegas Strip in the third day of a
massive walkout.
Union leaders accused the
police of brutality and urged
that the National Guard be
brought in to keep the peace.
At least 82 people had been
arrested in scattered outbreaks
of violence. One of those ar
rested Wednesday was a kitchen
worker armed with three Molo
tov cocktails. The strikers
blocked entrances at many of
the gambling palaces.
The walkout by thousands of
waiters, musicians, stagehands,
cooks and bellhops seeking pay
hikes and other benefits was in
its third day. It affected 29 gam
bling resorts.
Gambling was not affected
since dealers are non-union.
Sheriff John Moran
cancelled all days off and put
officers on 12-hour shifts.
At the Sands Hotel, three
women and a man were ar
rested when they stopped anun-
marked police vehicle, jumped
on its hood and slammed the
sides with their picket signs.
International Culinary
Union President Ed Hanley
Wedesday called on the U.S. At
torney General and Gov. Rich
ard Bryan of Nevada to halt the
violence against union mem
bers.
Hanley also asked AFL-CIO
president Lane Kirkland to
throw the full resources and in
fluence of the 13-million mem
ber organization into the Las
Vegas dispute.
The hotels meanwhile went
to court to get a restraining or
der reducing the number of
pickets. Attorney Rodney Jean,
representing the Nevada Resort
Association, said in his applica
tion to the district court that
picketers are forming a “solid
wall” so visitors to the hotel can
not reach entrances.
“The pickets are beating on
cars with their signs and there
have been bomb threats at the
various hotels,” said Jean.
He sought to limit the num
ber of pickets to two at each en
trance.
Hanley, in a letter to Bryan,
called for use of the National
Guard “to safeguard safety and
civil rights on law abiding citi
zens engaged in bone fide work
action...”
He said in a Telegram to At
torney General William French.
Smith, “The incredible uname-
rican display of police brutality
against hotel industry strikers in
Las Vegas April 3 demands
your immediate attention.
“I call on you office and jus
tice department officials to
uphold rights of citizens and
take all necessary action against
any violators of the land.”
Kirkland was asked by Han
ley to use full resources of his
union to stop the casino and ho
tel operators from trying to
break the strike.
Moran rejected charges his
deputies used excessive force in
subduing the pickets, particlarly
after a club-swinging incident at
the Hilton Hotel Tuesday in
which ten union leaders were
arrested.
Moran said the demonstra
tion by the union was “planned
deliberately to provoke a con
frontation.” He said attacks on
police officers “necessitated the
use of force to subdue the strik-
the Davis-Gary Hall bike rack.
• A silver Sears ten-speed bi
cycle was stolen from the Park
ing Annex 60 bus stop.
• A brown AMF three-speed
bicycle was stolen from the Ho-
tard Hall bike rack.
• An emergency air com
pressor was stolen from the me
chanical room in the Veterinary
Medical Diagnostic Laboratory.
