(Original Caption) 9/1919-Boston, Massachusetts: One of the few policemen (only 427 out of 1,544), who remain on duty during the Boston police strike. This officer speaks to a member of the National Guard who were called in to control lawlessness. The police officers are striking for a wage increase and fewer working hours per week. They were paid from $.21 to $.25 an hour for 83-98 hour weeks.
