American Wooden Co. in Maynard.
These workers are also locked out
these mills having officially closed
and are not re-opening with the

tremendous upsurge of the unem-
ployed movement.
The superintendent of the Pacific
Mills has told various individuals that
the Pacific Mill will announce its re-
opening in couple of weeks with a
Is per cent cut. This means that
there will be strike situation in
these mills. Active organization of
the National Textile Workers Union
and the United Front Rank and File
Committees among these workers is
progressing.
Thousands who registered for work
in the American Wooden Mills are
not being put to work now. Great
throngs stand around the mill gates
until they are dispersed by the po-
lice.

The National Textile Union is call
ing many meetings by mills and de-
partments this week and a general
membership meeting of the union for
Friday night to further organization
and organize the fight against dis
elimination.
All the arrested strikers are now
out on bail. Over fifty cases, which
have been continued or are on ap-
peal, are coming up within the next
