lem Of unemployment, and that only
rise in business could eradicate this
evil. 1t refused, therefore, to grant
them.
That in brief, participated the
strike. In normal years the season of
the trade would naturally have ended
the strike, because it would have solv-
ed the problem Of unemployment.
This is however, bad year, and yet
the strikers hope that the manufactur-
ers will change their attitude and that
the strike will soon be settled to their
satisfaction.

Ten
IN THE FIELD OF JEWISH LABOR
Furriers' Strike in New YOrk-A Pos
sible Federation of All the Needle
Trades.
By Elias Lieberman.

well organized, their strike practically
palayzed the whole industry in New
York. AS yet, the employers and en-
ployees are in test of strength. A
certain number of bosses have already
settled, but their number is not large
enough to justify anyone in calling
the strike success for the workers.
The strike came not unexpected, al
though there were hopes of it's being
avoided. Since the causes that led to
the final break are very characteristic
of the economic condition Of many
industries at the present, believe it
important to describe them.
For the last few years the furriers
witnessed state of prosperity"
There was simply enough work, and
the workers were able to make de-
cent living. This favorable condition
attracted many new workers to the
trade. The employers were anxious to
take in new workers, and so, little by
little, a few hundred half-skilled
workers, novices, were added to the
trade.
At the start, the Union was rather
backward in admitting these newcom-
ers into its ranks. Intiutively, the or
ganized workers felt that the good
days" would not last long, and that
the overflow in the trade might be-
come an evil from which all the work.
ers would have to suffer. But here the
workers struck basic question, name
ly, whether the doors Of their Union
should be closed to new workers.
This problem was often discussed
by the rank and file of the Union, and
finally the open door principle won
out. 1t was decided to accept all the
applicants into the Union.
Meanwhile, a certain unaimable
gentleman, Mr.. Slack, who is much
hated by the workers, came along.
The buyers had stopped ordering furs,
and the fur manufacturers began lay
ing off their employees.
Then the Union asked the Employ
ers Association to confer with it, and
proposed that whatever work there is
should be divided equally among the
workers in the shops, and that during
the slack period, the week should be
cut from the usual A hours to 40
hours of work. These measures were
demanded by the Union as a check
upon the evil Of unemployment. They
were not incorporated in the existing
agreement between the Association
and the Union. The Union hoped that
since its relations with the Associa-
ton had been friendly for eight years,
the representatives Of the Association
would be sympathetic toward it in its
present straits, and would recognize
the justice of its demands, and
stretch" a point Of the agreement.
Contrary to the Unions expectations,
the representatives Of the Association
refused to accept the proposed relief
measures.
Then the Union was compelled to
make demands, the most important Of
which were: ~ All discharged work.
ers should be reinstated. (2) The equal
division Of work among all Of the
workers, up to December 3lst. Reduc-
ton Of the number Of hours Of work
per week to 40. (S) Wages should not
be reduced during the time Of the
agreement. $.
To these demands the Association
replied quite CURLY that 1t did not be-

satisfaction.
At the last convention of the Inter-
national Ladies' Garment Workers
Union, which was held in Chicago last
May, it was recommended by the off
GERS Of the Union that the Interna-
tional attempt to unite all Of the nee
die industries. This decision adopted
unanimously by the convention, found
a favorable reception in the whole
Jewish field of labor. 1t Immediately
became the subject of the day.
In order to understand the signif-
canoe of such step it is necessary to
bear in mind that if this resolution
should be carried out in actual practice
it would mean that all the workers en-
ployed in manufacturing clothes, in
the mems clothing, women's wear,
hats, fancy leather goods, etc. would
belong to one labor federation. In
other words, the Amalgamated Cloth
ing Workers, the United Garment
Workers, the International Ladies'
Garment Workers, the United Cloth
Hat and Cap Makers, the Fancy Leath.
er Workers, and the Furriers' Unions
all these organizations with their
many locals would form federation
of almost three quarters Of million
workers. Such federation, If well or
ganized, must have influence upon the
policies of the labor movement and
would be a power to be reckoned with.
1t would in fact be the only power in
control of the working conditions in
the needle industries. With this in
mind, it is not wonder that all those
interested in the labor movement are
watching the progress of this plan
with the greatest anxiety and interest.
Yes, the plan is quite beautiful
one, and well appearing, but will it
be realized?
1t is perhaps too early to speak Of
the possible success or failure Of this
plan and, therefore, wish to limit
myself to a few remarks about the
difficulties which lie in the way Of its
naturalization.
In theory all the aforementioned
unions will agree to the plan. In prac-
tice they will not be inclined to sacri-
flee a particle Of their autonomy for
its realization. II every union should
insist upon its own sovereignty, and
freedom of action, doubtful indeed,
would be the success and power Of the
proposed federation. Another of the
great impediments will be the action
of the American Federation of Labor.
As is well known, the AGGRAVATED and
the United Cloth Hat and Cap Makers
Unions are outside Of the Federation
Of Labor altogether. The United Gar
ment Workers, whose leader, Mr..
Rickert, is active in the executive
council of the American Federation Of
Labor, will oppose any organization
which will recognize the Amlgamated
Union as a legitimate organization. 1t
may be expected, therefore, that Mr..
Rickert will be against such fedora
ton or against the admission Of the
Amalgamated. To form a federation
of the needle industry and exclude the
Amalgamated, one Of the most influ-
entail organizations, would be absurd.
Again, to leave out the United Gar
ment Workers would be construed as
The Jewish monitor. (Fort Worth-Dallas, Tex.) 191?-1921, 1920-06-18

a move for an organization outside Of
the American Federation of Labor.
Whether the other unions, such as the
International Ladies' Garment Work
ers Union would be ready to take such
a step is rather doubtful.

1t is not question Of whether It Is
advisable and fitting for the American
Federation of Labor to advance its
fight against the Amalgamated. The
fact remains, however, that the Fed
