IS FUR STRIKES
WON IN 2 WEEKS
Fight in q More for
Better Conditions

NEW YORK.-Although the fur
season has not even opened, workers
Of 81 shops have struck during the
past two weeks in the campaign of
the Needle Trades Workers Indus
trial Union against wage-cuts and
for union conditions. And 43 of these
shop strikes have already been won.
Twenty-one shops are still on strike.
In every instance the workers who
returned to the shops received wage
increases, shorter hours and general
improvement of conditions. This is
the answer that the furriers are Civ
ing TO the conspiracies of the labor
bureaucrats, who planned in their
conference further attacks on the
conditions of the workers.
WhieI developing the campaign Of
shop strikes, the Industrial Union
has also taken steps to organize the
workers against long hours and Sat-
urday work. For the past two weeks
demonstrations were carried through
in the fur market against work on
Saturday and Sunday and hundreds
of workers who had been forced to
come in to work were stopped off.
Plans have been made by the
trade committee for extending the
drive on a broader scale during the
coming week. All fur workers who
go into the shops should report to
the union office at once.
