when customer told us to join the
Food Workers industrial Union, and
will fight not only against the wage
cut, but for an increase of our pay
and shorter hours. We did join the

the union demands. The boss refused

CALL J0BLESS
CONFERENCE SUN.
Call Issued By Lower
Manhattan Council

NEW YORK.-A United Front
conference has been called by the
Lower Manhattan Unemployed
Council at Manhattan Lyceum, 66 E.
4th ST., Sunday, May 10, 1881, at 10
am. This conference is to unite the
employed and unemployed in the
struggle for unemployment instr
ance and immediate relief. Calls
have been sent to over $50 workers
organizations located between seth
st, and the Battery, which makes up
the territory covered by the Lower
Manhattan Unemployed Council At
present there are three branches To-
Gated in different neighborhoods of
lower Manhattan and each one of
these branches is carrying out an ex-
tensive house to house canvassing
campaign finding out the actual con-
ditions of workers families living in
their section, and using this informa-
ton as basis of demanding imme-
date relief from the city authorities
and the other relief agencies From
information gathered by this can
wasting work it is plain that rmem-
ployment is increasing, that more
families are starving in their homes
and are in danger of being evicted
and having their gas and electricity
shut off. The unemployed branches
are organizing the tenants of the
neighborhoods into house commits
tees, block committees, and tenants
leagues. The function of these or
CARNATIONS is to fight against the
eviction Of any unemployed family
living on their block, calling rent
strikes if necessary; also calling rent
strikes if the landlords refuse reduc-
tons in rent to the tenants.
The branches also are taking the
starving families to the Board of
Estimate and if relief is refused there
the. branches organize committees
which go to the stores in the neigh
borhoods and get relief for these
starving families. In carrying out
this important work it is Of the ut
most Importance that the employed
should be united with the unefn-
ployed SO all workers organizations
get IN touch with the Lower Mailnat-
tan Unemployed Council immediate
ly and elect your delegates for this
conference and take your place in
the struggle for unemployment in
surance and immediate relief.

dishwashers would not be our final
aim. However, we must consider
these facts:
( THE first settlement after two
hours strike could not be considered
a, settlement; the boss accepted the
demands to stall off and to try to
hire scab crew. The boss did not
succeed, the workers stood solid.
There followed lockout-strike of
ten days.
after ten days a settlement was
reached which was accepted by all
the strikers, as you see, the strikers
gained 10 hours less work per week
and an increase of So per week. The
Executive Council of the union ae-
cepted the compromise settlement
after the strikers voted to accept it.
The executive had to consider wheth-
er the sacrifice involved in keeping
on the strike was necessary to the
best advantage of the members in
volyed."

pointed out the wide study tina!
has been made in the fields and
through which much good has been
accomplished.
In the general cooperative set uu
he stated our state is in a very
good position particularly because
of the class of agricultural people
found here and cooperative de-
velopments of the past. He stated
that Minnesota leads California in
the value of products sold through
cooperatives, and in real cooper
alive effort.
He brought out point which
the county agent has always
agreed that farmers have been just
as cooperative as business groups
and in some cases much more so.
In some instances the farmers
need to bring the need of cooper
alive effort on the part of business
men to their attention in order to
themselves get the benefits that
they are entitled to.
He closed his remarks with the
program outlined in the morning
and pointed out his services will
be available for study and confer
ences of problems whenever the
farmers would like to have this
service. Mr.. Durdle believes there
are many places and problems to
which farmers of the county could
invite Mr.. Cowan for better de-
velopment of agriculture.
