ed slides and described how the
strikers would cram into 25 cars
and travel in a caravan, police
escorted, to the grape growers’
property. They would lineup at
the property’s edge and shout
through megaphones, ‘come out
of there. Join us. Be men. We’ll
take care of you . .
The pickets have been active
since September, 1965, when the
Agricultural Workers Organizing
Committee of the AFL-CIO and
the National Farm Workers As
sociation called the strike.
The strike was centered around
wages and working conditions.
The AWOC and the NFWA are
encouraging a nationwide strike
of all the products of Schenley
wines and liquors. Schenley is
one of the largest grape growers
in the area (35,000 acres).
Greg Johnson, another panel
member, marched with strikers
on a San Francisco dock. John
son is a junior in sociology at the
University and a member of the
SDS. He said that the longshore
man’s union cooperated and “in
this aspect the strike was very
successful.”
But he added that it was more
than a strike. “It’s a social move
ment. Psychologically there’s a
stimulation for the farm workers
to better themselves. They have j
become a highly solidified com-'
munity.”
Although the higher wage de-1
mand will increase the likelihood
of automation of the grape in-1
dustry in the near future, John
son feels that "the new spirit
will be necessary when the work-1
ers will have to be retrained for
other jobs.”
Mrs. Knapp said that besides
the SDS, CORE, SNCC, “and
most liberal organizations” en
courage drives for food and cloth
ing for the strikers.
Ken Kastner, a member of the
SDS said that in sympathy for
the march from Delano to Sacra
mento, which will culminate on
Easter Sunday, there will be a
pilgrimmage to the Eugene Uni-!
tarian Church, 447 40th Ave.,
East, starting at 8:30 p.m. The
Rev. Carl Nelson will discuss the
problems in Delano.
