Very little crime was reported at that time. In the midst of momentous organised struggles, a curious calm and order reigned. Everyone went about their business, which was often everyone’s business: supplying free milk for the children, setting up soup kitchens for the strikers’ families, keeping the ambulances, hospitals, transport and emergency services running, organising for self-defense. A serious sense of purpose was in the air, which did not exclude a good deal of exuberance among people experiencing freedom and responsibility for the first time. The impending crisis provoked more good humor than depression, although the jokes were mostly ironic. People thought less about their own petty resentments. It felt good to be alive and wonderful to be young. | Very little crime was reported at that time. In the midst of momentous organised struggles, a curious calm and order reigned.
