From the International Journal for July


We have been notified Of the election Of
1912 delegates to Troy convention, all of
whom expect to be present; this will be
the largest convention ever held by the
International Union. A large number
Of the delegates elect are men Of exper-
fence, both as officers of local Unions and
as delegates TO previous conventions.
The Presidents report to the convention
has been printed III accordance with res
olution Of last convention, also financial
itemlzed report Of the Financial Standing
of each Union with the International
Union, so that each delegate and each
Union can have constantly before them a
full expose Of the workings of the !. u.
during the past two years.
On account of strike among the boiler
makers in Patterson, n. j., about one
hundred moulders are thrown out Of EN-
ployment As they are nearly all non
Union men we do not propose to waste
much sympathy on them.
A general advance of wages has been
secured after hard struggle in the Ohio
Valley, embracing Unions Nos. 3, 10, IL,
20, As, As, 30, 81, 1877, and 228.
Union No. q after five weeks struggle
has secured an advance OF wages.
Union No 20 Of Hamilton completely
''busted" the bosses lock out in two weeks,
and on condition that they would say no
more about it the bosses conceded an ad-
vance of wages. The Union IL stronger
than ever.
Union No. % informs us that the men
locked out by Dickey a. Co., are all at
work in other places. Did not want any
help; only everybody stay away. Ger
tainly not very heavy tax.

committee, and sheppard. Mott, Heron,
Jewett, Bedding, Clark, and Olhaber, on
the last named committee.
Mr.. Pomroy said It their last meeting n
committee had been appointed to draft 3
bill for the consideration of Congress TO
protect designs. He desired to know what
progress had been made in the matter. The
chairman said draft of bin was in his
possession, and would be presented to the
association at the roper time.
Nine members re .orted progress, stating
substantially that almost all the manufac-
turers were either members Of the associa-
ton or were coming on with them, and
that perhaps nine-tenths Of the stove man
ufacturers Of the United States could be
counted on to accept measures TO which the
association might agree. Considerable
discussion then took place o. TO the desira-
bility Of the employment of drummers. 1t
became quite lively But the majority were
Of the opinion that the employment of
drummers gave rise to many serious evils.
1t added ten per cent to the cost. They
often received orders III u reckless manner,
which resulted in bad debts. Their mis-
representations Of reductions, professedly
made by other firms gave rise to frequent
Misunderstanding, while the sensible
opinion was expressed that more reliable,
profitable, and legitimate mode Of advertis-
ing their wares was through the medium Of
the press.

MIR. Burruugh offered the following
Rcspiced, That a committee Of five be ap-
pointed Ia consider and report at the Jan
usry meeting a method Of settling conflict
ing patent claims among the members Of
the association.
MIR. Jewett, Of Buffalo, thought it would
be going outside Of the legitimate object Of
the association, but would be glad to hear
any argument ia support Of it.
Mr.. Robertson, of New York, thought
that practical business men would, a
rule, be safer arbltrators than paid attor-
nuys. Common sense lay at the fOunda-
ton Of the law, but in the settlement oi
legal dispute this was the element oftenest
overlooked
Mr. Chamberlain thought the resolution
an important one, but believed it's attain
ment Impracticable.
Mr.. Miles GREENWOOD said that about
