Summary[edit]

Description	English: Cropped out caption reads: "THE B.F.T. REALTY CO., of Brooklyn had all figured out yesterday just how it was going to evict 450 families who had formed a union and gone on a rent strike in the seventeen tenements in Flushing avenue, Bedford avenue, and Wallabout street in Brooklyn. But they didn't figure in the movers who came to move on the furniture under the direction of city marshals. There were six of the movers and they started in cheerfully enough. But this was before the striking tenants flashed their "union cards." Then the movers -[unreadable] as the tenants refer slightingly to them-refused to proceed further and the eviction was off for the day. For several weeks the vicinity has b [unreadable] strike troubles. Yesterday, after the movers went on a strike, hundreds of the tenants paraded the streets with signs in their hands and on th [unreadable] defiance to the marshals and the landlords. The marshals say they will be back on the job today with some non-union movers."- Daily News Sat Sep 6 1919
