APPEAL TO GARMENT WORKERS
TO ORGANIZE IN CHICAGO


ladies' garment trade has been sent
out from the headquarters of the
International Ladies' Garment
Workers union, 1879 Milwaukee ay.
ToiIers are asked to organize.
The message follows:
There is not an important city to-
day in America where women work
ing at waists, skirts, dresses, kimO-
nos and white goods are not organ
lied. The girls have strong unions
in New York, philadelphia, Boston,
Worcester, Bridgeport, Springfield,
New Haven and in a number of other
cities. In fact, it is difficult for a girl
without union book to get a job in
any of these towns. In each shop
the girls have a price committee
which settles prices for them on
piecework and a shop chairlady who
looks after the interests of the girls.
"Why not introduce these same
conditions in Chicago? Why not
have price committees and shop
chairladies in the Chicago shops?
Why should the Chicago girls work
longer hours and earn less than the
girls of other towns?
''The Chicago manufacturers be-
come richer and richer every day.
Some of them who have been in
business only a few years are already
worth tens of thousands of dollars.
Why shouldn't the women who work
for them earn a little more and work
under less difficult and depressing
conditions?
1.-THE International Ladies' Gar
ment Workers union is strongly de-
termined to introduce in Chicago the
same conditions that prevail in all
other cities. We hope that the Chi
cago manufacturers will settle. our
grievances in a peaceful way; else
we shall have no other course but to
call a general strike in all Chicago
shops where waists, skirts, dresses,
white goods and kimOnos are being

FIXES SOFT COAL PRICES

Bituminous coal prices were fixed by
President Wilson tonight for every
mine in the United States. The next
STEP in coal control, a White House an
nouncement said, will be to fix the price
to be charged by middlemen and re-
tailers,
Prices were set on cost of production
estimates furnished by the federal trade
commission after months of exhaustive
investigation. The country is divided
into 80 districts and every producer in
a district will market his output at the
same price.
