Union Conditions in
Union Shops" Is Slogan

"UnIon conditions in union shops!"
Is the slogan Of the new progressive
administration In the Chicago Inter
national Ladies' Garment Workers
Union. The new administration has
begun to visit the union shops and to
see to It that union conditions are
lived up to and that the bosses do not
have scab conditions in union shops.
Under the old reactionary admins
tration bosses were allowed to bring
in non-union conditions into the
shops.
Union Workers Kept of Job.
Members of the reactionary gang
we're allowed to break the union laws
by holding down two jobs. After
working all day in one shop, this
favored member would go to another
shop and work all Saturday afternoon,
Sundays and nights. In this way
many union workers were kept out of
jobs that rightfully should have been
given them.

| ing as late as seven and eight O'Clock
at night. These very same individuals
who are breaking union law and are
aiding the boss to place scab condi

that are shouting the loudest against
the attempt of the rank and file com
mittees to organize the non-unioT
shops in the industry. It is these fol

management by the progressives anC

Union Conditions Must Prevail.
The new administration tho il

that union conditions shall prevail and
are conducting raids" on shops

ported to exist in an effort to eradi
cate this evil that was fostered and
nurtured by the old administration.

the prevention of keeping workers
from working in two shops but also
for the abolition of the piece-worl

PASSAIC STRIKE

$4,000 Paterson Silk
Workers Plan Strike
BY H. M. WIcKs.
Especial to The Daily Wcrker)


PASsAIc, March 3d. The textile
strike here is now in it's ninth week
with the embattled workers more de-
termined than ever to fight on until
they have crushed the fierce resist
ance Of the wooden mill owners. EV-
cry passing week finds the employers
and their barbarous ganesters in the
uniforms Of policemen devising new
and more ferocious methods of trying
to break the strike and wreck the
workers organization which was cre-
ated thru the struggle and that has
grown steeIed to the assaults against
them.
Last week while the center of &C
tivity shifted to Washington, the po-
litical capital of the country, with rep
fesentatives of the workers and the
employers on the scene, the paid lack
eys of the Passaic newspapers tried
TO stampede the workers back to the
slave pens by falsely circulating ru-
mors that the strike had been settled
In Washington and that everything
would be as it was before the long
struggle ensued. Spies and stool pig
cons Of the employers told the work
ers on strike that Albert Weisbord,
their organizer, had deserted them
and that he would not come back
to Passaic. AS soon as this story
reached the capitol the delegation at
Washington had Weisbord get on the
train and hasten to Passaic where he
appeared before thousands of strikers
who packed two large halls in Gar
field, New Jersey, and denounced the
scoundrellism Of the employers and
their agents. The rest OF the conn
nittee remained while they, under the
direction of Frank P. Walsh, contin-
hed to prepare the ground for sena-
tcrial investigation.
Resume Violence.
The fact that their scheme did not
work infuriated the mill owners and
they ordered their depraved and
drunken police thugs and cossacks to
resume the terror against the strikers.
So on Thursday the lines of pickets
were attacked and men, women and
children savagely beaten and tramp
led while again newspaper men, re-
porters and cameramen were beaten
by the DULLES and their machines
smashed in order that Photographic
evidence Of the infamy could not be
produced to prove who were the
apostles of violence in this struggle.
