Descriptive Information

Title
Ellen Gates Starr
Creator
I. P. E. U.  
Description
From text: "The value of the services of such women during the strike as Ellen Gates Starr, Mrs. Raymond Robins, Jane Addams, Amelia Sears, Mrs. Lillie, Mrs. John Furie, Grace Abbott, and others, was incalculable. Without almost a single important exception the sympathy of the public leaned to the side of the workers and had its effect in weakening and undermining the morale of obstinate employers. The weight of public opinion, indefinable and hard to estimate, nevertheless had in the long run its influence."
