It was the officialdom of the United Hebrew Trade which again advised the grocer to get the | injunction, and helped him by provid- ing affidavits for the purpose. Over a score of injunctions against the union with the assistance of the right | Wing officials have already been ob- | tained, B. Motter, 3451 Jerome Ave., the Bronx, is the employer who obtained | the anti-picketing writ from Judge!G Ente in Bronx supreme court. The union issued a statement asking all working class families to cooperate | with it in forcing recognition of the organization. * * * Organize Fruit Workers. The drive of the union to-enroll the hitherto unorganized fruit clerks, is proving highly successful, according to the results obtained at a mass meeting held recently especially for the workers in fruit stores. The meeting, which’ was held in McKinley Square Garden, discussed in detail the agreement which the union in- tends to present for the employers’ signatures. After acceptance of the proposed contract at the meeting, a large number of recruits joined the organization, A motion was then, passed giving the executive board of | the union full power to set the date for a general strike in the industry. There is no doubt that such a strike | would be as successful as the last strike of the grocery clerks which re- sulted in a complete victory for the workers. The fruit clerks are even more exploited than any other! branches of the trade, being compelled to. work 14 and more hours a day at miserable wages. The executive board, formerly com- posed of nine members, has been en- larged to 14 by the election of five workers to represent the fruit clerks. SAY MOVIE BOSSES ° BROKE TRUST LAW Held Club Over Thea- ters in Operator Strike CHICAGO, March 26.—A criminal bill of information has been filed in federal court, charging that the Mo- tion Picture Exhibitors’ Association of Chicago, controlling 300 movie houses in this city, conspired to vio- late the anti-trust law. The charge grew out of the action of the associa- , tion in withholding all films from | movie houses which dealt with the union during the strike of motion pic- ture operators here six months ago. The companies hit are the Metro- Goldwyn-Mayer, Paramount, . First National, Famous Players-Lasky, Uni- versal, United Artists, Fox, Pathé, F. B. O., and Vitagraph. These firms are said to control 80 percent of the film trade, | | Wagecut in Cotton Mills, WHITINSVILLE, Mass., March 26. +The workers in the fine cotton goods manufacturing mills of Whitins Brothers Ine. in the village of Lin- wood, will have their wages reduced by ten per cent, according to notices posted -at the plant yesterday.
