By working hard we could make an average of about $5 a week. We would have made more but had to provide our own machines, which cost us $45, we paying for them on the installment plan. We paid $5 down and $1 a month after that.Rose Schneiderman
Select Rose Schneiderman Quotations
So we must stand together to resist, for we will get what we can take - just that and no more.

We have tried you good people of the public and we have found you wanting.

Surely these women won't lose any more of their beauty and charm by putting a ballot in a ballot box once a year than they are likely to lose standing in foundries or laundries all year round. There is no harder contest than the contest for bread, let me tell you that.

Rose Schneiderman
