Labor notes and labor movement in New York
A New York letter describes a broad worker protest led by workingwomen including 49 000 sewing women, urging purchases without underpaid labor behind them and urging women to attend meetings and push remedial measures. It links cheap goods to low wages and calls for unity to defend female workers. It also notes Boston brewers threat to no license, New England and Massachusetts dealer talks, and labor reports from Maine and California on immigration laws and living costs.
