One of its Suffolk branches (Exning and 69 Alderton) sent in a demand for a rise in wages from 135. To 145. A week, and the limitation of hours to a maximum of 54 per week. The farmers replied by locking out all the Union men. Other farmers followed their example, without waiting for the Union men to send in claims. The lock-out quickly spread to other counties. In less than a month lock-outs had taken place in five neighbouring counties, and also in Hampshire, Warwickshire, and Gloucestershire.... By March 23rd 2, 000 men were locked out over 8, 000 were out by the begin- ning of May. One authority estimated the total number of labourers forced into idleness at 10, 000. A determined effort was made by the farmers to stamp out the Union.
The Union once more appealed to the organized trades and to the general public for funds ; the men who were locked out in one district were sent on a march through England, holding demonstra- tions and collecting subscriptions. A special crusade through the manufacturing cities of the North brought in over 3, 000.
