MASS PICKETING STARTS
AGAIN TOMORROW AS
STRIKE STOPS WACE-CUTS
Many Shops Forced
To de To
Strikers Demands

NEW YORK. - The strike of the
dressmakers here and in PhiladeI-
phia is already beginning to bear
fruit.
In both cities the Strike Commit
tees have begun to draw up settle
ments with the needle trades en-
ployers, and dressmakers have gone
back to work after winning the fol-
lowing demands: recognition of the
Needle Trades Workers Industrial
Union, affiliated with the T.U.UL.,
an increase in wages, the 40-hour
5-day week, recognition of the shop
committee, equal pay for equal work
for young workers, women and Ne
gros, abolition of all discrimination
against Negro dressmakers and I'M
employment insurance.
The Dress Contractors Protective
Association in New York as well as
independent stores has already sign
ed agreements with the Industrial
Union to this effect.
The remarkable enthusiasm of
these fighting dressmakers continues
to exert a powerful influence on
their fellow-work who have re-
manned in the shops. Shops have
joined the strike every day since the
strike began and the number of those
joining daily is increasing.
Strike Halls Already Crowded
The eagerness with which the
dressmakers are answering the call
of the Industrial Union is admitted
ly unparalleled. The strike halls are
always crowded to overlooking. In
Harlem, where this enthusiasm is
most pronounced, girls sing on the
picket line and dance in the strike
headquarters. That this enthusiasm
is beginning to communicate itself
to other shops in Harlem is evid-
enced by the walking out the other
day of one of the largest shops in
the entire district - one with 1877
dressmakers.
The most notable feature of the
strike is the dressmakers who come
to the various halls and beg for a
delegation of strikers to lead their
shop out on strike. The mass pick

British Racer Beats Gar Wood
Record With Speed Of 103.49
Miles Per Hour

Buenos Aires, April 3.-P)-A new
worlds speed boat record was hailed
here Friday-1o3.49 statute miles per
hour. made by Kaye Don, British
racer, in Miss England II on the sur
face of the muddy. swollen Parana
river Thursday afternoon.
The mark, which will be certified
to the International Racing associa-
ton at Brussels by the Argentine
Yacht club, beats the record OF 102.56
miles per hour set recently by the
American, Gar Wood, at Miami
Beach.
Don. happy at success in the ven-
ture which already has been attended
by failure in two attempts due to mo-
tor troubles, packed up his boat and
took the Andalucia Star at midnight
for England.
Don proceeded to the course early
Thursday and once touched 100 miles
an hour, he said. In the afternoon
he proceeded back up the river and
turning suddenly, darted off Gown the
Course.
He steered according to two Argen-
tine gunboats which were stationed at
either end Of the route, ard was
timed by automatic electric chrono-
meter devices with three members of
the Yacht club at either end Of the
course as officials.
Don's efforts were made in connec-
ton with the British trade exposition,
which is in progress here. The Miss
England II is the same boat in which
Major H. O. D. Segrave net his
death.

he is required to make his own way
and, when he returns to his colleagues,
he must have SIS in his pocket-the
financial grubstake with which he set
out.
With more than one-twelfth Of the
