Exhorts Worker to Stand United in Labor Fight
C T Nicholson of the International Association of Machinists urged Waterloo workers to organize and stay organized to resist the open shop. He warned that capitalists gained billions to use against labor and called for wide unity across industries, comparing organization to the nation’s wartime unity. Walter Webster echoed the need for universal organization, noting only 2 percent of workers are organized while employers are fully organized, and asserted organization is the key remedy. The mass meeting at Ben Hur hall was hosted by the Waterloo Central Labor Union and drew a crowded audience.
