Description
The severity of the strike at Pullman led to federal hearings to determine the cause of the unrest. This booklet of testimony from the U. S. Strike Commission hearings contains Pullman’s and Wickes’ testimony about their view of the strike. While they attempted to defend their decisions regarding pay cuts and costs charged to workers in Pullman, history has sided with the workers that their grievances were legitimate and the response to the strike was too heavy-handed.
