<!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en"> <html> Back in the 80's after this incident happened,  I had 3 or 4 letters published cautioning my fellow union brothers and other union friends not to kill anyone over a foreign car.  In the letter I recounted how Chin a Chinese American driving a Japanese car had been killed.  I asked rhetorically if it was worth killing someone over a foreign car.  In my opinion it was not! By the same token at the same time foreign steel import penatration had reached 50% or more in some product lines and steel production had slumped to around 40% of or less of  steelmaking capacity. Personally, I think the Steelworkers and other unionists at that time showed true courage and self control in the face of terrible adversity. Tom Max Sawicky wrote: <blockquote TYPE=CITE>. . .
