A general strike of the tailors and

I'VE feel that our organization will
be in position very shortly to pre-
sent these demands" Frank Rosen-
blum of the A. C. w. of A. stated to a
Day Book reporter. I'VE have not
decided yet what increase we shall
ask in wages. If we asked only what
the bosses have deducted IN the past
year we would have to ask so per
cent increase to bring the wages up
to only what they were year ago.
Married men in the industry are
getting as low as SIS week and since
the piece system has been put in so
generally workers are, shaving to
make So and So where they used to
earn SIS and $40.
"Since the parade on Saturday we
have enrolled a great many new
members. We have 100 organizers in

eide what demands shall be presented
to the bosses and what action shall
be taken if those demands are re-
fused"
