We do not pay $1.00 per hour, we pay piece work rates but guarantee at lgast the Provincial Govern ment minimum rate which. is $1.00 per hour. Most of the six girls who walked out on strike were earning and re: ceiving 25% to 309% over the Provincial minimum. This compares very favourably | ith what the Union may pay them for 40 hours Picket duty--$40.00 per week or $1.00 per HOUR! particularly in view of the verbal and physical abuse they have taken. The real crux of the prob- lem is this: #The six girls who want to go on strike are entitled to go -- but -- The fourteen who want to work are also entitled- to work if they so desire -- and without physical abuse!!! That. however, seems to be out. The Company, or the Company's legal counsel, will be glad to supply any interested, civic-minded resident of Port Perry with the names of these OUT- STANDING "COURAGE- OUS" MEN (6 or 7) who are able to show their great courage by hurling tomatoes -- and degrad- ing verbal abuse -- at your sisters--your daugh- ters--your wives--at the people. i We trust these "COUR- AGEOUS" Men* and Women* will now resort to. peaceful picketing. Canadian H. W. Gossard Co. Ltd. *Names-available on request. A hundred years ago, a Prisoner "in a Turkish fortress in the Holy Land announced a new Revelation of God. His name was Baha'u'lléh. His "letters to the Kings" are, had joined and then find out that none had signed cards. The 17 YES votes for a strike were partly signed by girls who no longer worked for Gossard. There are only 6 girls who actually worked here who could walk out and strike. The girls who are not want a strike at any time. As for the degrading wages that are being paid to us, is there any other business in attend. selected girls were allowed to picket. try, yet a few are trying with force, to tell the majority what to do. There are good unions and we respect them.
