Many hus- | bands are seeing their wives in a | new, different light as they look | down from those building windows | and see and hear them singing, cheering and urging them to c¢ontinue the fight. My husband is inside, in Chevro- | let No. 4. He is chairman of the | strike committee. We had been | fighting together until Monday, Feb. 1. Now he holds the fort on the inside with the union men while I am “carrying on” with the other wives, daughters and mothers on the cutside. We do not feel that this strike is a General Motors fight, but a fight | for all workers in the automobile | industry and all workers all over the | country. Tt is our struggle for se- | curity, democracy in industry, and freedom.
