Endorsed Stock Yards Strike Survives Pressure in Chicago
Chicago August 8 All labor unions in Chicago pledge moral and financial support to the butchers strike at the stock yards. The Chicago Federation of Labor representing about 306000 workers adopts resolutions to aid the strikers and families as long as the strike lasts. Each member contributes a small weekly sum to fund the strike relief. Both sides show no signs of weakening after nearly four weeks of conflict. The packers claim progress toward normal conditions but have only reinstated one unskilled worker.
