A machine designed to crush rocks.

Anything about the police sets them a talking at once. 'The blessed crushers are everywhere,' shouted one. 'I wish I'd been there to have had a shy at the eslops,' said another. And then a man sung out: 'O, don't I like the Bobbys?'

(slang, dated) A policeman.

Back in the lobby he bought a copy of Time but didn't like the way the plain-clothes crushers looked at him, and left.
