Has pros- If it hasn’t return- to Milwaukee—certainly Roose- velt’s Beer Bill will not cause it to come back anywhere else. As soon as the news of the sign- ing of the bill arrived, the streets were filled with workers seeking for jobs. Thousands of workers marched like an invading army through the 1| streets from one brewery to the oth- s|er. Over 5,000 stood in line all night at the brewery—and next morning | ten applications were taken. Not ten jobs—but ten applications for jobs! 1| The line at the Schlitz brewery one day was four blocks long—six to eight men deep. Policemen by the score walked along the lines, shoving the men, and trying to get them to go home. The cops took the names of h called when there's an oper Hundreds of workers started pour- ing into the city on freight trains, 1 expecting to find work.

The Brewers’ Union located in Brisbane Hall where the Socialist headquarters are, and controlled mainly by the Socialists, cashed in on the situation. In spite of the fact | that only the skilled trades in the breweries were unionized, and the) breweries are actually open shop as far as the unskilled workers are con- | cerned, the Brewers’ Union officials | spread the idea amongst the workers | that they could get jobs only by sign-| ing up with the union. The workers were given the idea that the official employment agency for the breweries was the Brewers’ Union in Brisbane| Hall. Membership fees of $25 were collected right and left by the labor | fakers—and still are—though these officials not guarantee a job any more than the man in the moon.

The wages, | which were cut over two-thirds since | 1929, remain the same in the face of the rising prices due to inflation. | And the worst part of it is the faci| that this employment is only tem-/ porary! The very nature of the Meyer trade which is specialized, con-/ fined to bottling machinery for brew- eries, makes this clear. The orders soon’ will be filled, and the Meyer men laid off.
