Why ITALIAN WoRKMEN DO NOT Strike
The system of STRIKES seems to find but little
favor among the workmen Of Italy. When
thew feel themselves aggrieved they lay their
case fairly before the authorities, who inter
cede with their employers, and hitherto they
have always succeeded in acquiring their
wishes, whether as to an increase of wages or a
dimiuution in the hours Of labor. Some at
tcmpts have, however, been made to, get up
strikes in some of the larger cities, and Ro-
man correspondent Of the Independence Beige
tells of recent abortive one to induce the
operative masous Of Rome to turn out.
When the meeting began, one stawart work
man propounded the very pertinent question:
but who will pay me for my idle time when
I am out of work p The trades-union
funds" was the reply. "How long will these
funds maintain me in idleness :? Five days. :,
said one, and perhaps thirty days. SAID
another And what after the five and thirty
DAYS have expired ?" 70 this no body seemed
to be able to give reply, upon which muir,
muir of dissatisfaction went through the meet,
ing. and the questioner was surrounded and
applauded with cries of He is right we
must think of our wives and children The
general exclamation was mo strike, and the
meeting thereupon separated, the masons re-
turning peacefully to their work.
