following royal proclamation:
"Nature has bountifully blessed our
empire in the harvest time. From the
highlands and the valleys and from dis

here the wonderful products of our ia

desert gave no promise of fertility and

nourishment to the growth of beautiful
fruit.

SCENES OF MISERY
AMONG STRIKERS In CHICAGO
ARE APPALLING.
Nearly 100000 Persons Face Starvation
Through Garment Workers Strike
Society Women and School Teachers
to Aid of Unionists-S Started
in Different Sections of City.

Stirred to action by the piteous
plight of nearly 100000 persons, who
practically face starvation at Chicago
through the strike of 10000 garment
workers, who have been out since Oc-
tober z, the women IS organizations of
Chicago, it is declared, will get behind
the toilers in a body and aid in their
fight for living wages.
This action was forecast when Mrs.
Raymond Robins, president of the
Women IS Trades Union league, an
nounced that the Chicago Women IS
club, composed of many of the social
leaders of the city, had at last become
cognizant of the terrible privations of
the strikers and had declared its pur-
pose to lend aid.
The first actual move on the part
of the Chicago women to help the
workers came Saturday, when 400 mem
bers of the Chicago Teachers fedora
ton contributed to the strikers sup
port and bound themselves to a weekly
assessment as long as the labor war
shall last.
Starvation for Strikers
That the strike of the garment work
ers is entailing almost actual starva-
ton on those workers who are out, and
on their families, is becoming daily
more apparent. Tales of want and mis-
cry among the thousands who lack
their ordinary wage daily pour into the
union headquarters.
To relieve the situation partially
the leaders of the strike have hit upon
a novel plan. In 20 different sections
of the city commissary stores and coal
yards have been opened, at which the
strikers may obtain food and fuel at
the lowest prices. 1t is figured that
by this means the price of food may be.
cut 20 per cent.
Another feature of the struggle
which has led to action and participa-
ton by Chicago club women in the
strikers war is the charges of grow
ing brutality of the police. Day by
day since the strike began, according
to union leaders, the men with the
clubs have grown more cruel. Peace
able pickets, they say, have been rid
den down under the horses of the
mounted police.
All efforts for peace so far having
failed, the employers have imported
the first strikebreakers into the city.
To date the workers have stuck fast
to their demands for recognition of
the union.
