1t will be remembered that the Committee con-
templated raising the of $4,000, this being the
least amount with which they could hope to make
a successful experiment, in the good work Of Sc
curing to the Shirt Sewers the full proceeds of thor
labor. As yet, there have been but 81 67 raised
ard the " Shirt Sewers Union" assure the Finance
Committee that IL the balance of 81 900 can be
raised, the Union will establish itself on a perma
nelt and enduring basis. Its success, thus far viii
fairly Justify the conclusion and, Ia view OF this
the Committee again appeal TO the public to make
I'D the original amount asked for. The Union have
an eligible location, mo 70 Bleecker-st, near Broad
way,) with light, spacious and commOdous sewing
rooms capable of seating $50 workers but, as yeti
their limited means would not warrant them in
giving employment 10 more than thirty women IN
the mandatory, and about the same number who
take work 10 their homes. AS the Association be
comes known, its work has gradually increased and
they are fully satisfied that, as they become known
the public will find employment for any number o.
females who may join the Association.
Subscriptions may DO sent to any members OF the
Finance Committee, for which Scrip will be given
BY the Union payable in work 90 soon as the Union
is permanently established.
