According to Charges

Special Correspondence
CHICAGO, Nov. 7.-Rccords of the
Amalgamated Clothing Workers of
America, seized here yesterday in a
raid, supply sufficient evidence to sub
stantiate charges Of conspiracy and
bribery against twelve union officials.

the grand jury for action some time
the following week.
The District Attorneys raid Thurs
day on the Chicago Offices Of the Anal
gamatcd Clothing Workers was de
clared in a statement last night by
Joseph Schlossberg, general secretary
Of the union, to be part of "gigan1ic
conspiracy by a group Of unscruDu Gus
employers to involve the officials in a
bribery plot" 1t was the intention,
Schlossberg asserted, to discredit the
unions officials and "strike a death
blow at the organization" which was
first TO establish the orty-four-h hour
week for its members and forced en-
ployers to give better wages to meet
the increased cost OF living

completely. Schlossberg stated.
