Abstract

The German Unions Fight for Life

February 13, 1924 issue

add to cart   close window

This article focuses on the appeal received by the Amalgamated Clothing Workers from the German Wearing Apparel Worker's Union. In response to this appeal the Central Executive Board of the Amalgamated has sent the sum of $3,000 to the German workers. The steady and rapid sinking of the mark, and the demoralization of German economic life as a result of that, have created conditions unparalleled in the history of civilized peoples, conditions which no people can lastingly endure. The first ones to realize the true situation are the unions and their responsible officials.
