Esther Lobetkin, a recent immigrant, became chairman of her Yiddish-speaking group, marching with the strikers by day, then rushing to Clinton Hall to report and attend meetings until the small hours of the morning. A sandwich at midnight and an hour of sleep were all she seemed to need. Although she was arrested time and again, she never failed to yell from the back of the patrol wagon, "Do not lose courage! We'll win yet!"
