wish to say to the union people OF
Tracy City and Whitwell, stand firm
to the union and hold fast to that
which is good. Be kind hearted to all
you meet Tell them that they are
taking our freedom away from us and
to think what they are doing. 1t is
taking the bread from the laboring
class and giving it to the companies, |
would like to see all come out and
stand firm for what is right. just as
long as we push against one another
we will never gain anything. l wish
all who are working would look in the
matter and see where they are bring
ing slavery to our children. If this
goes on like it has in ten years we
cam make a living for our families.
1t not only hurts the union but it hurts
those who are working now. Ihey
will see in the future, if they go on
just like they are that it hurts all OF
the laboring class of people all over the
world, so good people look in the mat
ter and think what it is bringing
about. 1t would be so good if the un-
ion and the non union people would
come together and bring about a talr
settlement so we could enjoy the fruits
of our labor. | would like to hear of
the laboring class coming together and
saying, ''We will stand firm until we
get the right price for our work so we
can school our children. But as 1T is
now we have to take our children in
the mines to make bread for the rest.
If we were getting what is due us
we could send our children to school.
Non union men, take this to your
heart and think about it and study o.
yer it and see if | am not right about
the matter. | would like to see you
come to the front and say that we are
ready to stand until we get what is
due us if that is forever
| Tell ''Union Woma, n" of Tracy, to
come down and we will pick us chew
of sweet gum.
This is Sunday morning and the
birds are singing their sweet songs,
| flying from spray to spray. Everything
is green and pretty.
