New York City, is being con- tinued very successfully this week in the textile centers of Pennsyl- vania. At a mesting held Tuesday night, September 11, Labor Lyceum, Philadelphia, offi- cials of the United Textile Workers | from the upholstery weavers were among the workers who attended the meeting. Their attempt to discon- cert the speaker by would-be pointed questions and remarks were very ence was completely won over to the idea of the new textile union. 4+ Easton, Pa., Sunday afternoon, Seywicmber 9, tn Vanderveer Hall, work: from the silk mills in who fre receiving wage cuts and are suffering severely Irom smeeu-up and part-time employment, *~ened eagerly to the message of the Na- tonal Textile Mill Committees. teen delegates have been elected to the convention from this section. Qn Sunday evening, September 9, n meeting was held in Chester, Pa., | ng woolen, cotton and artificial | stik mills. Some of the worst siave eynditions anywhere in the country | are to be found in Chester. That the workers there are determined to struggle for organization and bet- | terment of their conditions was proved by their attendance at Weis- hord’s meeting, as well as by the ten delegates elected from that city. | The tour will be continued this week in the anthracite region, which | is the most important center for the silk growing industry in the United States and where practically every little mining town has its silk mill, | sirls. The U. T. W. has had an ful of the girls have been organized, | and these few are discontented with | the organization, which neglects them and attempts no struggle to improve their conditions. Wages here are $8 and $10 a week. The militant fight which the young girl workers in the Wilkes-Barre Silk Mill put up a year ago was betrayed when the U. T. W. took over their strike and sent them back to work with no agreement. The Textile Mill Committees is holding meetings on Wednesday evening, September 12, at Nanticoke, Pa., where a Tex- tils Mil! Committee has been or- ganized in an important mill; on Old Forge, and on Friday evening, September 14, at Edwardsville. A big delegation will be assured | thraugh these meetings and through the other organization work which is being carried on, making certain | resented at the convention and that | the new union will have a firm and | broad footing in that state. Every new reader of The DAILY WORKER is a potential eoldier in the coming battles of the workers. é All Comrades Meet at BRONSTEIN’S VEGETARIAN HEALTH RESTAURANT £58 Claremont P’kway Bronx MET YOUR FRIENDS at HMessinger’s Vegetarian and Dairy Restaurant 1763 Southern Bivd., Bronx, N.
