Description

News clipping detailing James L. Novarro's attempt to persuade Mexican Americans at a rally to work within the system and disregard voices spewing hate and lawlessness. The rally supported a $1.25 minimum wage, but support for this cause had lost momentum by this time.
Recorte de noticias que detalla el intento de James L. Novarro de persuadir a los mexicoamericanos en un mitin para trabajar dentro del sistema y hacer caso omiso de las voces que diseminan odio y anarquía. La manifestación apoyaba un salario mínimo de $1.25, pero el apoyo a esta causa había perdido impulso en ese momento.
