Berlin, 1844. Creator: Unknown
Berlin, 1844. Accounts have been received from Berlin, of a general strike among workmen in the extensive calico-printing works of that city, comprising a body of from 2500 to 3000 men, for an augmentation of wages; but which, it appears, the owners are not inclined to grant...It originated in the very extensive works called the Dannenbergsche-Cotun Fabrick, belonging to the Messrs. Nauen, Loire, and Co. a firm well known in Prussia for the extreme liberality with which it has treated their workmen...There appears no real or just cause why the men should have acted so unwisely, since the wages hitherto granted have been very liberal, considering the great depression which has existed for some time back in the calico-printing trade. From " Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol V
