The DiGiorgio Corporation, which last year grossed
$231,890,000, which owns L600 ecres ir the strike zone (and
more than 26,000 acres all together), which has four dir-
ectors on the boerc cf the huge B ank of America, and whose
wide-ranging corporate interests make it truly an economic
octopus, is being chellenged by its field workers, whose
only power is their unity of purpcse and strength of deter-
mination, and whose only weepon is their non-violent strike.
THEY NEED YOUR HELP!
A nation-wide boycott is being conducted against
DiGiorgio products. S & i Foods warehouses are being
closed down in Celiifornia and New England by large groups
of pickets with the suppat of Teamsters! unions.
The midwest distribution center for DiGiorgio products
is here in Chicago. It is crucial that it be closed down
temporarily to show DiGiorgio the strength of suppa@t for
the strike. The Teamsters have indicated willingness to
respect picket*lines at the warehouse. Whether they do or
mot mey be contingent upon the force of our picket line.
: The warehouse 41s located at 3350 N. Kedzié, one block
north of Belmont and the JFK Expresswey. On Monday, May 23,
1966, at 7:00 AM, people from all parts of the city will
meet at the S & W warehouse for a mass demonstration-picket.
- The most effective sid you can give the strikers is to be
there.
. B oyeott and consumer picketing will continue until
the strike is WON. To help, contact the strike coordinatar
on your campus, call Harry Johnson at 939-2794, or write
NFWA, 1300 Wabash, Chicago, Illinois.
