Chapter 24

In this chapter, Pa told a story about mountain men -in Akron, Ohio- working in rubber plants. As the story went along, the towns people apparently hated the "union" and tried exceedingly to run out the migrant workers. All I could think about is Pa seriously told a story based on what's happening currently to him and the rest of the migrant workers and ended it with the "town (California)" never giving the migrant workers/union trouble again. He told a story based on what he'd wished to happen. Could this possible be a foreshadow on what'll happen next and will his story even compare to his near future?
