Minor. 1.-THE thing to do is to or
ganize good disciplined mass picket
line. Pickets must include all of the
strikers. And the strikers must bring
in their families to participate in the
picket line. They must also go out in
an organized way and round up the
neighbors, men, women and youths
as volunteer helpers in the picket
line. 1t must be mass picket line
But the most necessary thing is
to call on the Unemployed Council
to come as an organized body to
picket. This will not only strengthen
your forces in numbers but will also
serve as token of the solidarity be-
tween employed and unemployed
The organized unemployed are the
very best assistance in picketing," he
continued.
During Minors speech, a repre-
sentative of the Frame Makers

frame makers had just settled their
strike and had decided to offer 10
per cent of the wages Of the 400

Minor pointed out that it is neces-

experience in this sort of struggle
that it is absolutely necessary to VIC.

Brooklyn and changed its name to
the Chatham Shop in an effort to
keep the shop from being unionized.
But the workers discovered the ruse
and declared strike.
The Chatham bosses rushed des-
perately to Whalen's office, put up
the Blue Eagle and when, finally,
these steps did not help them, sought
an injunction against the union. This
was defeated by the vigorous protests
of the union and the sworn affida-
