Lee Meriweather, the well-known labor statis-
tician. who -ecently investigated the Chinese
problem in California. tells Of a strike In a shoe
factory where both whites and Cinnamon ar.
employed. AMI the proprietor issued an order that
the worknen must stand while at work. Both
whites and Chinese struck, hut within two weeks
the white w]orkmen yielded and came back. The
Cinnamon. however, remained out until the boss
surrendered. After that the Chinese sat at work
and the white laborers stool. Mr.. Meriweather
also says that the discipline in the Chinese labor
unions Is far better than that maintained by the
unions OF white men. and that a Chinaman very
rarely dares to resume work unless his Union
permits him to do so, as. II he disoheys, he
runs the risk OF being removed by the high
binders, who are ruling the unions by means OF
assassination.
