Textile workers resume duty as union drive plans new fight
Washington Sept 24 Thousands of textile workers return to their looms signaling the end of the great New Deal strike and a renewed push to unionize every operative in the industry. Francis J Geman Textile Workers vice president set a goal of 1 009 000 members while the union claims about 200 000 now and affected nearly 500 000 during the strike. The conflict has left 16 dead, 200 plus wounded, 15 million in wages and millions in lost business, with property damage and heavy militia costs. The effort aims to broaden union reach, especially in the South, and faces resistance from manufacturers who must decide on the peace plan backed by Winant officials.
