1,100 United Financial Employees members marched on Wall Street to protest working conditions at the New York Stock Exchange throughout the spring of 1948. The SIU provided around 500 of its own members as security. Many of the UFE employees were office workers and women who needed protection from police violence.
The strikes lasted a month, from the end of March 1948 to the last day of April. Although UFE was able to get the concessions they sought from the Curb Exchange, the Stock Exchange bosses refused to compromise with the union.

1,100 United Financial Employees members marched on Wall Street to protest working conditions at the New York Stock Exchange throughout the spring of 1948.

The strikes lasted a month, from the end of March 1948 to the last day of April. Although UFE was able to get the concessions they sought from the Curb Exchange, the Stock Exchange bosses refused to compromise with the union.

Description
An account of the resource
1,100 United Financial Employees members marched on Wall Street to protest working conditions at the New York Stock Exchange throughout the spring of 1948. The SIU provided around 500 of its own members as security. Many of the UFE employees were office workers and women who needed protection from police violence.
The strikes lasted a month, from the end of March 1948 to the last day of April. Although UFE was able to get the concessions they sought from the Curb Exchange, the Stock Exchange bosses refused to compromise with the union.

An account of the resource
John Ward ices down his fractured ankle while giving his account of the UFE strike to the Seafarers Log:
"When the first upsurge ended, I found myself lying on my stomach in the middle of the group. I was about four men from the door of the Exchange. In the noise and turmoil I couldn't hear anyone yell at me, and I'm sure no attempt was made to do so. The first feeling of what was going on came when I felt someone beating me about the back and legs. Some cop rapped a tattoo on my back and I felt a sharp stab when his stick cracked against my ankle bone. I don't think I could have risen then if I'd wanted to. Finally four cops grabbed me and dragged me to the wagon."

An account of the resource
Recounting his time on the UFE picket, Brother Meloy said, "Somehow I found myself in the middle of the surging bunch and tripped over a falling picket. Lying face down, I looked up once and got rapped on the back of my head. No one said 'Get up' or anything. A cop started beating me on the head again, and he must have hit me 30 or 40 times. I had my arm around another fellow so the cop hit me on the elbow—it seems they like to hit on the bone. His blow took all the strength from my arm. Four cops tried to lift me to the wagon. Finally one grabbed me by the hair and neck and dragged me. The hospital told me the elbow nerves may be crushed."

Description
An account of the resource
1,100 United Financial Employees members marched on Wall Street to protest working conditions at the New York Stock Exchange throughout the spring of 1948. The SIU provided around 500 of its own members as security. Many of the UFE employees were office workers and women who needed protection from police violence.
The strikes lasted a month, from the end of March 1948 to the last day of April. Although UFE was able to get the concessions they sought from the Curb Exchange, the Stock Exchange bosses refused to compromise with the union.

Description
An account of the resource
1,100 United Financial Employees members marched on Wall Street to protest working conditions at the New York Stock Exchange throughout the spring of 1948. The SIU provided around 500 of its own members as security. Many of the UFE employees were office workers and women who needed protection from police violence.
The strikes lasted a month, from the end of March 1948 to the last day of April. Although UFE was able to get the concessions they sought from the Curb Exchange, the Stock Exchange bosses refused to compromise with the union.
