The most immediate issue at stake between the UFW and Gallo is that the UFW is demanding free representation elections for Gallo's workers. The facts that Gallo presents, without substantiation, distort or ignore a number of important points that we feel should be made clear. The E&J Gallo Winery the largest wine producer in the United States has mounted an enormous advertising capaign to counteract the boycott of Gallo products launched by its striking workers in 1973. But most recently attacks against the union have come from another sources: the Gallo Corporation itself. These agruments, we believe have been adequately replied to by supporters of the UFW.
From the right have come claims chat farm workers are prosperous rather than oppressed and that the union hurts those it is supposed to help. The United Farm works of America (UFW) has recently been the target of criticism in the news media, Liberals grown weary of prolonged struggle have predicted the Union's defeat at the hands of the ruthless and efficient Teamsters.
