The picketers were the combat troops, the foot soldiers who went daily into battle. Within days of the strike call, the Association of Waist and Dress Manufacturers of New York — formed and dominated by the largest firms — declared open war against the union. They urged small owners who had already made settlements to repudiate them. A trade agreement with the union “was not worth the paper it was written on.” New workers were hired, and reinforcements for the ranks of gorillas. They used their fists routinely against girl strikers, and, just as routinely, police hauled the strikers away for disorderly conduct.
