The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1925-10-20

TIME International Tailoring Co, has
4 distributed scab printed circulars
thruout the city Of New York offering
$1,000 reward for the arrest and con
viction of workers guilty of com
hitting violent and illegal acts
against the scabs working for the
International Tailoring Co. Not one
dollar of the $1,000 has been paid out
The circular was Issued on August 18th,
1925.
On August 18th Justice Thomas
w. Churchill of the New York
supreme court issued one of the most
sweeping injunctions against the
strikers of the International Tailoring
Co. and their organization, the Anal
gamated Clothing Workers Of Amer
lea. The injunction issued and the
motion, which was signed by Justice
Churchill making it permanent, con-
tains the following declaration by this
eminent capitalist Judge, Il dislike
to interfere by injunction in an
industrial dispute, but where violence
is proved all other considerations
must be subordinated to its suppress
sion"
Wealthisst Company in Clothing
Industry.
THE International Tailoring Co. is
L one of the welthiest mems cloth
ing manufacturing concerns in the
United States. It does millions Of
dollars worth of business a year It
has gigantic factories in New York
and Chicago. It has decided to take
up the fight against the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers of America. It is
aided in it's fight by the other manu-
facturers in the industry, and by the
United Garment Workers of America,
the scabbing organization Of the Am
erican Federation Of Labor, which
has signed an agreement with the
concern to supply it with strikebreak-
ers during the strike.
The International Tailoring Co. in
its war against the Amalgamated has
recruited the worst elements of the
underworld to terrorize the workers
into submission. The fight of the
International Tailoring Co. is a fight
to lower wages, increase hours, speed
up production and to lower the stand
ards of living of the workers. 1t can
only do that effectively by smashing
the strike and thus giving an impetus
to the move of the capitalists thruout
the United States to smash the organ
izations Of the workers. The strike
against the International Tailoring
Co. is a life and death struggle for
the Amalgamated. The injunction
was issued for the express purpose,
not to prevent violence because the
International Tailoring Co. can make
display of violence without fear of
court interference, but for the pur-
pose Of making it impossible for the
workers to conduct their strike
effectively so that the strike shall be
lost and the opportunity given to the
manufacturers together with the scab
United Garment Workers Union to
smash the Amalgamated Clothing
Workers Of America.
Friend of Labor.
WHEN Churchill ran for election he
w was endorsed as a friend of
labor by the Central Trades and
Labor Council. Churchill true to the
capitalist class he represents and
serves, now comes to the assistance
of the International Tailoring Co. and
stabs the striking clothing workers
in the back with the INDUCTION which
he says he dislikes so much to issue
but nevertheless issues. The Interna-
tional Tailoring Co. injunction is an
expression of government by injuncs
tion against the working class.
The International Tailoring Co. in
junction, because it was issued by a
so-called friend Of labor, is also proof
of the bankruptcy and treacherous
effect OF the policy of the reaction
