sentative of the Ladies' Garment
Workers International union, took
the bull by the horns and led the hun
dreds of workers of the Herzog fac
tories out to strike there were many
who thought they knew a thing or
two about Chicago labor who said
Miss Cohn had started something she
could never finish with success.
She finished with success so COM
plete that Herzog's employees got all
they asked and last week received
$500 back pay for increases on work
which they did before the increases
were granted. The employees of Her.
zog's are satisfied and the employer
is tickled because he is getting bet
ter work from his girls, since he is
paying more decent wage.
When Herzog signed, Steinberg &
Sopkin also signed with the House,
Kimona and White Goods Workers
union. Then the strike Of the ANAL
gamated garment workers was call
ed. The Steinberg & Sopkin factory
is in the same building with that of
Myer Bros, tailors. All of Myer
Bros. Men went out with the ANAL
gamated garment workers. Private
detectives came to the building and
started rein of terror, according to
the workers. B. Sopkin saw in this
an opportunity to evade paying the
girls the increases he had agreed to,
according to Miss Cohn.
The girls wanted to strike then,
but Miss Cohn prevailed upon them
to continue at work until the busy
season. Last week the girls again
demanded strike. Miss Coin, Miss
MaryAnderson of the Women's Trade
Union league, Abraham Bisno and
later John Fitzpatrick met Sopkin in
an endeavor to make him live up to
his old promises. He told them that
only three of his workers belonger
