The figures are amazing by
any comparison. AS supplied
by union leaders:
Five hundred thousand cotton
textile workers ordered to walk out
at 1870 p. m.
Two hundred thousand wooden
and worsted laborers ordered to
join them.
One hundred and fifty thousand
silk operatives awaiting a strike
decision today.
Two hundred and fifty thousand
garments workers preparing to
strike.
Never before has there been such
a threat to the nations well-being.
Reports of violence and of Com
munistic activity were Serious. Yet
they paled into insignifcance as the
administration pondered the effects
such a strike-if prolonged-might
have on the country.
Roosevelt Is Silent
President Roosevelt was silent.
SO were his aids. Their efforts to
avert the strike had collapsed. They
labored on. They sought a formula
whereby the walkout might be
stopped before the very foundations
Of the New Deal we're undermined.
Lloyd K. Garrison, chairman Of
the national labor board, admitted
formally that there was no chance
of averting the strike. He said his
only hope was to achieve an early
settlement.
Henry I. Hartman, president of
the United States Chamber of Com
merce, and as such leader of Ameri-
can industrialism, issued bitter
statement.
He charged the United Textile
workers with trying to force the
government into financing" the
walkout. He said the labor depart
ment was powerless to say whether
the strike was justified. He as
serted that the relief administra-
ton had no right to feed the
strikers.
I affirm that policies of the gov
eminent should not be such as to
encourage strikes and industrial UNI
rest" he said.
Strike Leader Is Bitter
Francis j. German, whose head
has survived many a brickbat in
picket fights, was angry Speaking
as chairman of the special strike
committee, he said concerning Mr..
Harrimans statement:
That is absolutely false and the
output of bitterly hostile minds"
Mr.. German says the industry has
profited from the misery of its
workers. He says the greed of the
owners has turned the blue eagle
into curse.
Thursday he ordered the cotton
strike. Yesterday he ordered the
WOODEN strike. Today he was to
order the silk strike-unless he re-
ceived assurances of cooperation
from the industry. The allied gar
ment strike was being planned by
another union, with headquarters in
New York.
In the welter of statements, there
no way Of gauging immedi-
ate effectiveness of the walkout. Most
mills are closed today, tomorrow and
Monday. The crisis will come Tues
day.
