9th SITS, marched in column of

Seventh and Eighth AYES. (the heart
Of the garment DISTRICT and took
one turn Ground the block bordered
on the south by 35th st. They gave
the struck Monroe Cafeteria a lusty
eooing as they marched by.
In fact the pickets marched
wherever they pleased, for as long
as they pleased and dispersed in
organized fashion.
Slogans Displayed.
They carried numerous big painted
placards reading, "Join the Indus
trial Union" down With Fake
Strikes and Fake Settlements"
Down With the IL.G.W. Scab
Agency" Down With Gangsterism,"
Win the 40-Hour Week." open

trial Union Is Your Union," etc.
Contrary to police tactics in previ-
Gus demonstrations, no attempt was
made to seize the placards.
The pickets as they marched
shouted these slogans. They sang
Solidarity" "Wave Scarlet Ban
ner," "The Internationale" and
many strike songs.
Speech During March.
A worker was lifted on the Shout
ders of two of his comrades on TIE
north side of Both st. and was car
ried over half a block while he
shouted a speech, exposing the rank
sell out of the I.L.G.W., exposing
its two-year slave contract, calling
on the workers in the locked-out
and sold-out shops to come to the
N.T.WLU., to join in the struggle |
for real union conditions, calling on |
them to form joint committees of |
action.
Hurrah For TUUL.
"Hurrah for the Needle Trades
Workers Industrial Union, section |
of the Trade Union Unity League"
shouted a picket, amidst applause
and loud cheering.
One of the banners, borne by
contingent of Amalgamated Cloth
ing Workers who had joined the
demonstration read: "Hillman and
the Socialists Have Betrayed U.s."
A placard carried by some food
workers also marching said: "Sup-
port the Cafeteria Workers On /
Strike"
The entire demonstration was
proof that the stern struggle the
needle trades workers have waged, |
and such militant demonstrations as
that for Katovis, have made their
mark on the gangsters and the Tam
many police. The needle trades |
workers had the streets yesterday.
Thousands collected along the side
walks to watch the demonstration.
Workers from open shops and sold
out workers in the I.L.G.W. shops !
leaned from the windows to cheer.
On the other hand, the peaceful
ness of the scene caused a certain
formal rigidity in the demonstra-
ton. Workers too firmly kept their
places in the ranks, extended for
blocks, and did not mass quickly
enough to protect Rose Wortis,
Goodman, SAFER, Boruchowitz and |
others who were pushed from a
truck in 36th st. which they mount
ed to speak. The police made no
arrests, but in the absence of mill
tant defense from the marchers,
lept the truck clear.
Drive Goes On.
The N.TW.IU. continues its or
