we're different.
Girl MiIitants Give Battle.
About zoe young militant girl
members of Local % had mobil-
lied against just such raids and
stood ready to give battle to all
corners. They had been waiting
for twenty-four hours, sleeping
in relays, and they sailed forth
with war spirit shining in their
bonnie eyes and soon the gang
sters had ANONYMOUSLY fled.
Locals 2. 9 and % Of the /. L. G.
w. U. on Tuesday night held three
big mass meetings with two extra
overflow meetings which had to be
provided for the members of Local %.
All these meeting were packed and
TANNED on hot sultry night with
wildly indignant needle trades work
ers worked up to the highest pitch of
excitement by the outrageous and
high handed suspension of the Off
GERS of the above three locals by the
Joint board Clique" headed by Morris
sigman and small army of gang
sters.
These mass meetings repudiated
the action of Sigman and his gang.
They were addressed by speakers who
showed how the deposed left wing
executives had fought for the rank
and file issues versus the class COLA
boration Of the Sigman gang.
Why They Were Deposed
The executives of these locals had
fought against the increase in dues;
against the governors commission;
against the reckless expulsion of the
left wing and the consequent expend-
itnre by the Sigman administration
.ef tremendous sums of money All the
speakers were wildly applauded and
to all those present it was apparent
that this time the membership of
these three locals which approximates
thirty thousand will not allow Sigman
and his gang to break up the organ
ization.
Resolutions were adopted at all
these meetings which gave the exc
cutiyes full power to act, to set up a
joint council of action and to fight
relentlessly against the suspension
order of the sigman gang.
All New York Fired BY Struggle
The New York labor movement is
afire with this struggle its results will
have far reaching effect upon the
entire labor movement. The militant
needle trades workers are determined
to win this fight and preserve the
unity of their organization against
Sigman and his disgusting tactics.
Statement OF Suspended Local
Officers
The following statement has been
issued by the suspended officials of
locals 2, 8 and 20 OF the l. L. G.. w. U.
as answer to the ridiculous charges of
the Sigman machine:
In answer to the statement of the
joint board we can state that up to
date, we have not received a copy of
any charges and we have seen it to-
day for the first time in the news
papers.
THE charges made against us, we
believe, are for the purpose Of illegal
ly Selling our treasury and prevent
ing the members of our union from
conducting the affairs of the union.

TO ADD TO ARMORY AT ~

Grand Forks. N. d.. March 30
The seating of crowds in the Uni
versity of North Dakota armory will
be somewhat better next year due
to the appropriation of $4,000 al
lowed by the last session of the leg
islature for an addition and remod-
cling of the armory.
1t is expected that about 500 seats
will be made available by galleries
under the roof behind each basket.
These seats will not be choice but
will help considerably as the armory
is far from accommodating the
crowds desiring to attend the bas-
ketball games at present. The chan
ges will also nrovide increased space
for lockers, which is badly needed.
