May Day

May day is a glorious day in the history of the labourers worldwide. First day of the month of May is observed as the May Day. It is observed to show respects to demands of the laborers. The history behind it is very sorrowful. On May 3,1886, some workers gathered in demand of a minimum wage, safety laws, and eight hour work hours in a working day. Police fired in the crowd of strikers at the Mc Comick Harvest Machine Company, Chicago. Here at lest one people was killed and some others were seriously wounded. At the beginning of Industrial Revolution people had to work long hours both day and night. It was simply inhuman. It stopped when all labourers stood up. If the workers would not stand up and demand their rights, their future generation would fail to enjoy all the productive peivileges of the present day labourers. The day is most important for all the labourers both manual and mental worldwide. We need to observe it quite carefully and properly.
