MAY UNITE.
STATE COUNCILLOR MILLER
WILL MAKE A REPORT
Recommending the Union of the Senior
and Junior Orders of American
Mechauics-He Gives His Rea-
sons For the Proposed Plan.

Curtis c. Miller, of MassiuoD, State
Councillor of the Order of United
American Mechanics, will go to Cleveland
this week,f for the purpose OF meeting Ger
tain other officers of the organization ia
arrange some preliminary matters for
the meeting of the state council at Mt.
Vernon on May 1s. 10 and 90. In his an
nual report Mr.. Miller will recon mel nd
some important steps for the strengthen
ing of the association, and among them
will be the consolidation of the two
orders of American Mechsnics "The
difference between the two branches is
only nominal" says Mr.. Miller, "and
there is no real reason why we should
keep apart. The combined membership
of the two would make us the most pow
erful organization of the character In ex-
istence. If the time ever comes when this
will be brought about hope that our
constitution will be SO modified as not to
prohibit all foreigners. In my opinion
II man has been a resident of the
United States and has shown himself
to be good citizen for twenty -one years
he should DO eligible to mem oership.
Very often, too, men who were probably
only a few months old when their par
ents immigrated to this country and who
are as loyal Americans as ever cast bal
lot, are turned away becase they were not
born in this country. 1t is not Just apd
should not be allowed to continue So"
Mr.. Miller stated that there has been
slight decrease in the membership of
the Senior order since last May, but that
from financial standpoint it is In better
condition today than ever before. "Since
we increased our initiation fee from SO
to So, said he, 'the number OF new
members has not been as great as in
former years and as there are always
mbers leaving every organization our
list has been reduced slightly. In these
hard times there are few societies that
are gaining members and nearly all are
losing and we had to suffer with the rest,
not to such great extent as most of
them, though, for our inuome has not
decreased with our membership"
