Strike in 1.-THE Loop"

ACKSON and Market streets, the
heart of the dressmaking indus
try in Chicago, was scene of surg
ing crowds from 1890 to IL yester-
day morning as thousand of gar
ment workers left their machines in
a great movement for the 40-hour
week, more wages, sanitary condi--
tions in the shops and maintenance
of the unemployed.
Union and non-union alike were in
the masses of men and women work
ers who filled the pavement and be-
gan marching towards the halls at 20
w. Randolph st. and 100 W. Wash
ington St., where they would be
modified into picket squads.
''Whole Shop OutP'
"My whole shop came out with
me-" bright eyed Jewish girl said.
"There are only two scabs left in
mine," answered another girl who
said she worked in Fried's, on Mar
ket ltreet.
This conversation the reporter
heard was paralelled in front of al
most every door in the congested
industry area between Van Burea
and Adams streets. There are some
big scab shops still running but the
union expects to get them out before
the week is over.
Pickets Force Them Out.
The strike moment was 1890 but
1t was not for another fifteen min
utes that the streets were iammed.
Many of the workers in non-union
shops were hesitant. Their bosses
were cajoling and threatening bv
turns. Girls heads popped out of
the windows, tho, and the sight of
the crowds outside encouraged them.
Pickets forced their way past the
guards posted at shop doors in MANY
eases, and cried to the timid to join
their fellows in the great strike
volunteer pickets these, expelled
militants among them.
The sight of the enthusiastic
crowds on the street was discourage
ing to the bosses. saw one bosses,
face, fat picture of woe. looking
out Of window lettered with the
signs stylish Stout'-referring 10
the goods, not their owner.
Cops and More Cops.
Police were there, trying to move
on the crowds--police on foot and
police mounted on their brown
charges. But there were not enough
cops on hand to suit the bosses: the
crowd wasn't moving on fast enough
and more workers, encouraged by
the sight Of the masses outside, were
coming down the long stairs Of the
lofty buildings and adding to the
crowds.
SO one boss sent in riot call.
Came a rafting patrol wagon. A

AmGLgGnldted Will
Support Strike of
/. L. G. Workers

"The great st.i',~ - the dress
tnsxers --cnhcs INV 2 l:zAs..aaos;.
Of every member Of the AmaIgamat-
ed Clothing Workers Union" said
A. S. Fisch, secretary Of the Chi
cago Joint Board Of the Amalgamat-
ed, last night.
Fisch said he was speaking as a
union member, not an official. The
Joint Board meets tomorrow and
will discuss ways and means of as
sisting their comrades of the ladies'
garment industry.
A closer feeling Of sympathy will
come between the two unions as a
result of the strike, Fisch said he
felt certain. In New York relations
between the two organizations are
excellent as an effect of the support
they have given each other in
struggles.

WE now ascend to the top
w of our great school pyra-
mid, the National Education
Association. This is the pro-
fessional organization of the
educators of the United States,
and as such it possesses ire
mendous prestige and power
in the educational world. You prob
ably know very little about it, and
may think that it has nothing to
do with your local schools; but in
this you will be deceiving yourself,
for its influence is none the less
strong because indirect.
What the N. E. A. does is to set
the standards Of the school world;
in its councils, open or secret, the
thing called educational greatness is
determined.
Who are the great" educators of
America? Who are the ones that
really know how children should be
taught and what they should be
taught? Do you know who they are?
Manifestly you do not; you have to
be told who they are, and the func-
ton Of the N. E. A. is to tell you.
1t is the dispenser Of educational
prominence and applause. The final
test of greatness in the school world
is to be invited to deliver one Of the
addresses before its annual conven-
ton; while to have your name added
to the list Of presidents Of the or
ganlzation is in the school world the
same thing as It Is in public life to
have your name added to the list Of
presidents of the United States,
which every school child has to learn
by heart. You step out before this
vast assemblaes, amid futter of
applause, and tens Of thousands Of
teachers and sympathizers absorb
your uttersnces, and carry them

Expelled Left Wing
UniOnists Aid Strike
Against SweatshOps

Evidence of a desire for harmony
with the left wing expelled members
during the strike was shown yester-
day afternoon when Dora Lipshutz
was invited by Harry Rose, who is
in charge of the strikers halls at
No. 1870 W. Washington street, to
assist the strike committee.
Miss Lipshutz was an active union
member who was expelled for her
utilization with the Trade Union Edu-
cational League, which is working
for progressive policies within the
union.
Expelled members gave valuable
aid in picket work yesterday. Clara
Cabin, Israel Litwinsky and Jack
Perry were among those who were
on the front of the picket line.

said he believed bribery was not

After the war, word got out

Nine of the workers were ar
rested in Blum and Kempler's
plant on S. Market stueet.
Pickets were inviting the
sweated employees of this no
torious anti-labor concern to
join the big walkout and men
and women were beginning to
come out.
Jack Blum, brother of the proprie-

strikers say, and with some follow

pickets and strikers.

Blum went with them to the po-
