The SIU provided around 500 of its own members as security. Many of the UFE employees were office workers and women who needed protection from police violence. The strikes lasted a month, from the end of March 1948 to the last day of April. Although UFE was able to get the concessions they sought from the Curb Exchange, the Stock Exchange bosses refused to compromise with the union.
