SHADES OF 1884

The more that develops in the current drive to
bring textile workers into the ranks of the CIO the
more it reminds of the organization campaign con-
Quoted with such fatal and destructive results in
1884
Sidney Hillman, who is one of John l.. Lewis
right-hand men in CIO councils and chairman of
the Textile Workers Organizing committee, an af-
fliate of the CIO, calmly announces the TWOC
probably will call a strike in about two weeks" in
the nations silk manufacturing plants to affect
about $4,000 workers
" That sounds strangely familiar to pronounce
ments made in 1884 in the six and cotton textile
industries. Then the strikes developed, many mills
were closed down, thousands of workers and their
families went through long periods of hardship,
damage was done to property, many were killed
and many more injured, the people were put to
great expense by maintaining national guard troops
at various mills and the losses to the general public
through stOppage of payrols could hardly be esti-
mated.
Mr. Hillman now would do it all over, starting
with the silk mills and turning next, undoubtedly,
to the cotton mills if the TWOC gets enough of a
foothold to make strike possible.
1t is the same course taken three years ago and
the same outcome may be expected. That was a
bloody, costly lesson we had then and it should be
enough.-Anderson Mail.
