1000 loaves, was sent last week to
the mill strikers by the Labor League

the strikers as long as the strike lasts.
Thousands of mill workers are now
being fed by the cooperative bakeries.
The Conference of Cooperative

and when she asked what they want

aroused suspicion and she told them
to wait minute until she called up
