Distributed by Bronx
Women in Protest of High
Prices

1t was quiet evening in the kosher
butcher shops of The Bronx last night.
Many OF the proprietors, particularly
those In the vicinity of Bathgate Ave-
nue. and Claremont Parkway, instead
OF persplring under the orders of their
customers, sat before their stores and
enjoyed the springlike night. Their
customers were striking for lower
prices. and buying eggs, cereals, veg
etables and fruits to take the place of
meat in the Sunday menu.
The strike was organized quickly and
quietly. A group of women, represent
ing the Progressive Women Of The
Bronx and the Socialist Consumers
League, met in the afternoon in the
London Casino, 1875 Broadway, and ar
ranged to distribute more than ten
thousand circulars advising housewives
that the butchers prices are uniusti-
ned by present conditions
Urges Housewives Not to Buy
The circulars, printed in Yiddish.
read:
Big strike against the butchers.
don't buy any meat. Let US show
that we are able to protest.
'W orkingmen's Wives: 1t is about
time we should wake up and see the
way we are being bled at every point.
we, the women of The Bronx, plead
with you not to buy meat, but to Join
IN an organized movement to defeat
the butcher, baker, fish dealer and
chicken trust-but remember, the first
one is the butcher. Will we ever
learn that ,at has become very much
cheaper and our butchers have for
gotten to tell us? When meat got
dear and we objected to paying so
much they told us to buy meat our
selves and see how dear it is. We have
held back too long. We resolved at a
meeting on Friday night that we would
organize strike with the butchers
who have been torturing US for MANY
weeks. making us pay excessive prices
and failing to listen when we com
planned"
The circular concludes with plea
for unity and steadfastness. 1t is
signed "The Hard Pressed Women of
The Bronx"
Forced to Close Shops
Its effect was noticeable shortly
after the butcher shops opened in the
evening when shutdown ended the
Jewish sabbath. Three butchers on
Bathgate Avenue sent their? meat
stocks back to the packers and closed
for the night.
Samuel Leder, Of 1914 Third Avenue,
who returned his supply, denied that
kosher butchers are profiteering. He
said he buys chucks and plates for from
70 to % cents pound, including bone
and fat. He sells the solid meat,
without bone or fat, for SO cents.
