B. Governing leaders tended to support the bosses against the striking laborers.
Explanation:
The Great Upheaval, a term used to describe the Steel strike of 1919, was an action taken by the American laborers in the steel, iron, and tin industries to protest against the inability of the government to fulfill its promise of raising wages, reducing the prices of commodities, and ensuring better working conditions. This protest which lasted from September 22, 1919, to January 8, 1920, was met with great opposition from both the bosses and managers of the industries as well as government officials.
The United States Steel Chairman, Elbert Gary declined meetings for negotiations with the National Committee. President Woodrow Wilson was unable to convince the workers not to strike. The bosses of the industries resorted to rumor-mongering, employment of unskilled workers, and other ill measures to sabotage the strike.
So, both the governing leaders and bosses were against the laborers.
