IN the Strike at the Edna NO.
women have taken an active part
in the struggle. They have helped
the men by going on the picket
line with their children, and they
nave helped collect relief. They
IRE organizing to help the Nation
al Miners Union fight wage cuts.
But while wages are going down
and unemployment increases in
American mining districts, the
Soviet Union has just raised the
wages of all underground mine
workers by 20S0. When this news
reached the miners wives in the
Pittsburgh area, they saw that
miners conditions in the workers
republic are growing steadily bet
-er, while miners conditions in the
United States are growing stead
.ly worse.
The Miners Demands
The struggle on March 8 for the
women in the mining fields must
back up the miners demands: In
crease in pay, instead of wage
cuts; a weekly wage guaranteed
~ the company as a minimum.
even when work is slack; good
'oads and sidewalks in mining
owns; free medical care to min
ers and their families; better
houses, lower rent, and cheaper
electricity; lower prices at com
pany stores.
Prepare for Struggle
Meetings of the working women
must be held in the different min
ng centers. Arrangements have
been made for meetings in the fol-
owing coal and steel towns:
Pittsburgh, MeKeesport, Mones-
sen, Johnstown, Ambridge, New
lensington, Canonsburg, Wheel
ng, Yorkville, Bellaire, Neffs.
Demonstrations are to be held
where possible.
This day is to unite the working
women together with the men in
ne common struggle, for they both
eel the same conditions.

as the dressmakers fought in 1909,
1919, 1926, and all other historic
struggles that have placed the
dressmakers in the forefront of
the American labor movement.
Strike Extends to New Sections
The outstanding feature of this
strike is that it is not limited to
the Garment center, but is extended
to the small shops of outlying sec
tions of the city where conditions
are unbearable. In Harlem, the
Spanish and Negro workers, for
the first time are learning the les
sons of the class struggle. In
Brooklyn, Brownsville, the Bronx,
and all sections of the city, the
dressmakers for the first time are
beginning to see way out of their
miserable conditions, they are be-
ginning to build an instrument to
defend them in the struggles
against the bosses. In the halls,
workers are showing a splendid
spirit Of solidarity. Race and ma
tional prejudices which are encour-
aged by the bosses, have been
wiped out, the dressmakers are
showing a united front of all
workers, with one aim, to spread
the strike, to draw the workers in
to the fighting ranks of the work
ers, and for better conditions in the
shops.
Police and Underworld
The silence that existed prior to
the strike has now given place to
a campaign Of threats and terror.
The company union working hand
in hand with the police and the
underworld instigates arrests on
the picket line. But the spirit of
the strikers is not dampened by
these acts Of terror. Since the day
of the strike, many additional
shops have come down to the strike
halls.
The militant workers, and par
ticularfy the working women,
throughout the entire country,
must rally to the support Of the
striking dressmakers in New York
and Philadelphia. Show your sol
,idarity with the strikers on the
picket line. Raise money for the
strike fund to enable the dress
makers to carry on their militant
struggle, to win their demands for
the 40-hour week, minimum wage
Scale, the right to the job, no dis
elimination against Negro workers
and all other demands aimed to
raise the standards of the thous-
ands of dressmakers in the dress
trade.
Working women, make Interna-
tional Women Day a demonstra-
ton of solidarity with the dress
makers. Their fight is our fight
their victory will be your vic
tory.
