NEW YORK GARMENT
WORKERS VICTORIOUS

New York.-The Ladies Garment
Workers union has defeated their or
ganized employers, who abrogated an
agreement and locked out 10000 workers
April 2s.
During the lockout numerous confer
ences were held and the employers Of
fered every solution except the one the
workers insisted on-the creation Of ma
chinery to settle grievances.
Last month the unions representa-
tives submitted an agreement without
this clause, and it was rejected by the
strikers. Conferences were again re-
Sumcd and the manufacturers surrend-
cred and contract was agreed to that
was later accepted by the strikers, who
are now returning to work. Both sides
agree to discipline any member who vio-
lateS the agreement and provision is
made for the settlement of grievances.
Prices for piece work are to be fixed
by committees selected by workers in
the various shops. Under this agree
ment employees will have voice in set
ting prices.
Other sections, which were included
in the rejected agreement, provide for a
49-hour week and an average of per
cent increase for week workers.
The strikers victory is complete and
marks what is believed to be the end of
a series of efforts by the manufacturers
to crush this union. Last year eight Of
iicials of the union were arrested on
murder charges, but were later acquit-
ted. This was followed, on April 2S,
1916, by the manufacturers abrogating
two years agreement, signed July %,
1915, which provided for Cancellation
committee to which all differences were
to be referred
