STATE HOUSE
PHOENIX, ARIZONA
January II, 1892.
STATEMENT BY GOVERNOR
GEORGE w. P. HUNT:
1T is matter of great disap-
pointment to me that the Special
Session of the Tenth Arizona Leg
islature did not enact any con-
structive plan for relief of unem-
ployment and alienation of the
burden of our property taxpayers.
These were the major problems
facing the special session. Neither
received the adequate attention nor
serious consideration of the legis-
lative body which their Importance
demanded.
In view of the critical condition
OF unemployment in our State, af-

Conditions in the distressed
areas demonstrate concluSively
that the needs of the unemployed
are deeper and more comprehen-
sive than the receipt of bare

rector of the scheme, said.
A'It is perhaps not yet generally

Fry said, "but some of our mental

SimiIar u. S. Scheme
In explaining the scheme, Miss
Fry expressed the opinion that
the United States probably would
;oon begin fostering some sort OF
gardens for unemployment since it
seemed determined to reject any
variety of Federal Unemployment
Insurance assistance. She pointed
cut that Germany, Belgium and
France have developed the same
idea on big scale and saved their
jobless families from much physi-

ATTEMPT BREAK
LAUNDRY STRIKE

The various bosses of the down.
town laundries are cooperating with
the boss OF the New Style Laundry,
at 10Th Street and Bird Avenue, in
order to break this important strike.
Mr.. Sam Cherner, the boss of the
New Style Laundry, declared that he
would rather close his plant than
have any organizatio min his place.
However, he has changed his atti-
tude somewhat, bue he is still holding
out against the demands of the
strikers, because the bosses of many
downtown laundries, like the Lion
Laundry, at 18th Street between Ave-
nue. G and d and the Whitehouse
Laundry, at 9th Street, are helping
him operate his laundry by sending
in truckfulls Of laundry bundles. The
bosses association is .using this last
method after all their frameups and
other vicious schemes had failed to
break the strike.
The strikers, Negro and white,
though inexperienced, when they
struck 100 per cent for the reinstate-
ment of a fired negro worker, now
clearly realize the Importance of this
strike and they are more determined
than ever, now at the end of the
sixth week of bitter struggle, to con-
TUNE vigorously and win the strike.
There will be demonstration and
several open-air meetings nFriday,
April 9th, at 2 o'clock. All workers
are asked to come to 5 East 10th
Street, first floor, and help these
militant strikers of the New Style
Laundry win their fight against
sweat-shop conditions adm for the
right to organize.

NEW YORK.-The entire crew of

yesterday against the lockout Of the
boss.
For three weeks the firm schemed
in many ways to put over a wage
cut of 20 per cent. The workers or
gained themselves and declared that
they will not stand any more wage
cuts. The bosses, seeing the determi-
nation of the crew Withdrew his de-
mand and recognized the Shop Com

Immediately it was evident that
new schemes would follow. This week
all the workers were told to get their
tools and get out. The crew answered
With strike against the lockout.
One remarkable feature of this
strike is the concrete application of

to put their own pickets on and in
the event of a settlement, the asso-

BRONX COUNCIL
WINS RELIEF
Force Buro to Give Aid
to Two Families

The nilitancy and persistence Of
workers in. the Bronx, led by the
Lower Bronx Unemployed Council
forced the Home Relief Bureau to
give relief to Alex Soloma, 532 East
136th Street, after the unemployed
worker was evicted in the rain last
week. On April 4th the Council
forced the bureau to take care of an
unemployed elderly couple by the
sme Of Prushonsky.
In the case of So,oma, two open
air meetings were held and the
workers modified for a demonstra-
ion in front of the bureau. A riot
quad was called, but did not dare
70 attack in face of the workers mill
fancy. The crowd was reay to take
the furniture an unload it in front
of the Borough Hall when the bureau
granted their demands.
The elderly couple were evicted
from 284 AIMS Avenue. Despite the
fact that Mrs. Prushonsky, SO years
old, had bee nso i'll that she weighed
rs pounds and was unable to walk.
She was brought in baby carriage
to the Unemployed Council. A meet
ing was held and money collected to
take Mrs. PrtIshonsky to the Home
Relief Bureau in a taxi.
The Bureau was Indifferent TO the
pitiful aspects Of the case and re-
fused aid. The workers refused to
leave the builing. Police were called,
who would not arrest the sick old
woman because there was no matron
in jail. The determined stan of the
workers finally forced the police and
supervisor to remove the old woman
to the hospital and call the Catholic
Charities to pay her rent. A sign
was placed on the furniture while it
was in the street, Hoover Pros
perity."
A demonstration was held by the
council two days later demanding
that two old workers, worn out and
neglected by the bosses, receive per-
manent shelter.

The foreman uses dozens of pre-
texts to dock the men. The rules are
not set. One day one thing is not per-
mitted and the next day the workers
find new set Of rules are in force.
The rulings are left to the foremen
who turn into petty tyrants.
But the orders for the shifting
rules is directed by Tammany Hall
with the deliberate purpose of using
these pretexts to reduce the cost Of
relief Most of the workers have been
cut from three days work at $3.50 to
two days work at IS day. Unable,
therefore, to make direct cuts with
out entirely exposing their fake
charity schemes, these tyrannical
methods are employed to cut the re-
lief indirectly.
