Y.—I am work- ing as a janitor in an apartment house in West Heights. I work from 1] to 17 hours per day, 7 days a wiek. I must keep the house clean, take garbage, trim coal, take care of two fires starting at 5 a. m. each day, and in addition must also show vacant apartments and collect rents. But wait a minute, that it not all. When I am through with the above- mentioned work, my boss, who is a half millionaire, wants me to scab on the carpenters, plumbers, elec- tricians and even the tilemen and painters. And when I get through about 10:30 p. m. I have earned the phenomenal sum of $3.20 or 20 cents per hour. I recently asked my boss for an increase in salary or $25 per month. (I am getting $100 per month now.) The answer I got was: You are getting too much now and I am going to cut your salary $25 vy ven we stop firing on April 15, and it you don’t like it, let me know, so T can get another man for about $60 per month.

Here you have a real workers’ union, run by the members them- selves, not by a bunch of A. F. of L. grafters. So do not wait for a dele- gate to sign you up, but come down to the union and sign for better con- ditions and help to bring other fel- low-workers into the fight. Do you réalize that today your boss has a legal right to put you into the street without a minute’s notice, by telling you to sue him for it.

Following the re- lease of the defendants on bail, five days after their arrest, photographs were taken which showed welts and bruises on the bodies of nearly every one of the men.
