MUSS,WORKERS CO
ON STRIKE AS RESULT
REDUCTION IN WOOES
BOSTON, Oct. 9. OP)—More than
25,000 jobs went begging in Massa
chusetts as workers, incensed by
an announcement of a reduction
in wages or unsatisfactory working
conditions walked the streets.
The strike movement centers in
the textile city of Lawrence where
about 22,000 men and women left
their looms and benches rather
than to acept the 10 per cent re
duction in wages. The controversey
spread to other centers. In Boston
about 3,000 longshoremen refused
to handle a cargo on coastal and
foreign vessels plying in and out
of that port.
The quarrel centered on working
conditions in the textile city of
Lowell, the geographical neighbor
of Lawrence. Strike talk brewed
for several days and was trans
formed into action yesterday when
more than 300 employees quit be
cause of the 10 per cent cut in
wages.
Mill owners contend that unless
wages are reduced that their mills
cannot survive because of “ruin
ous competition” from other cities
where the working days are longer
and the wages lower.
