Big Organization Drive
Is Launched by the
Laundry Workers
International

Local Union No. AS of Chicago is
growing rapidly and Business Rep
resentative Glenn w. Campbell is in
charge of the organizing campaign.
This group of workers have been
abused, exploited and victimized by
race feeling encouraged by the bosses,
which has proved so beneficial to the
owners of these establishments, who
are interested alone in profit. They
have, through their political influence
and other unfair methods, prevented
the minimum wage scale and the
eight-hour law for women being
placed on the statute books. They
have combined their resources and op-
posed all forms of constructive legis-
lation. But the workers are devel-
oping formidable force which will
offset these conditions and, in short
with the ever increasing numbers, ex-
pect to have the entire 5000 of these
workers securely enrolled in their own
organization, where they can provide
for such changes as will be conducive
to good health.
The local headquarters are at 166
w. Washington ST., Room 7O4. Phone
Main 3374. Any one interested in
helping to improve conditions should
call in person or phone Mr.. Glenn w.
Campbell. Next regular meeting will
be held Wednesday, Sept. II, at 8 p.
m., Ga w. Randolph st. Laundry
workers are especially invited.

The question pertaining to the ac-
tivity of the major parties in attempt
ing to befuddle the voters by making
the "Initiative, Referendum and Re-
call" and the Gateway Amendment"
an issue must not be taken seriously
by voters, as they have always OPP
posed constructive legislation. They
are simply using these issues as bait.
Voters ar hereby warned to refrain
from signing any petitions for candi-
dates to the constitutional convention
who are hooked up and bridled by "big
business"

Oscar De Priest
Attacks Hoyne
Charges Hoyne Favored the White
Criminals.

States Attorney Hoyne showed
very clearly that he was favoring
the whites. The colored people were
not given adequate police protection
before or during the riots. If they
had been as carefully guarded by the
city officials as were the whites the
riots might have been avoided. The
colored soldiers fought for democracy
as well as the whites. They want
equal justice"
