CHIEF CROKER GAVE
WARNING or WORK
SHOP PERILS

But while we're talking about
those districts ia like to say that a
district which ought to be given
attention is that along Fifth avenue
where those fine workshops are.
Fifth avenue workshops are nothing
but high class sweatshops. and
they're all the more dangerous be-
cause they are In fireproof buildings
The law doesn't require flreproof
buildings to have IRE escapes, and
the people who have to work In
these shops are In constant danger.
"These shops ought to have as
much, IL not more. protection as is
thrown around tho people who 60

the theatres unless they want to,
while the people In these workshops

1T should not be necessary to ex-

were poor working people whose
families are either left destitute or
can III afford the cost of sickness or
death. The sole support OF the fam
