An Agent for Women

Women coming into the owl rship OF
property, having had no experience in max
ing or managing IL. often require the serv-
ices of an agent to look after IL. Invest-
ments must be made or changed, properly
examined or sifted, and numerous dif1culs
ties must be solved. In the choice of such
an agent there are several essential qualI-
fications. such as character, experience.
ability and good judgment. These are more
likely to be found in a trust mpa
which must also be financially responsible
and subject to State supervision, than IN
an individual, and combined with them fs
permanence, which no individual can be
sure of. The Union Trust Company offers
its services as an agent or trustee IN all
matters Of business, and solicits interviews
with any one interested. Our charges viii

NATIONAL ORGANIZER.


The next speaker was George Har-
riS. one of the national organizers. iir
told of the great power that the Uni
ted Mine Workers have in their grasp;
greater power, he said. than any
other body of laborng men in the
country. They can by Il united effort
stop every industry in the country and
stop every steamship line. There is
no reason" said he. "why the men
engaged in mining coal should not get
as high a rate of wages as the men Of
any other craft. The miner has just
as much right to set a price on his
labor, as has the doctor, the lawyer
or the merchant"
Mr.. Harris was followed by A. C.
Cattermull, of Chicago, a member Of
the national executive committee OF
the carpenters organization. who has
national reputation as a logical labor
speaker. He said in beginning that
there was a great need for labor or
GaniZatiUns because individuaism
among the wage-earncrs has largely
If not entirely disappeared. and they
are forced to act collectively.

said he. ION every hand we see i'm

therefore it is only logical for the en-
ployes to organize. If our progress Is

the wage workers themselves. Strikes
are always and invariably the result
of insufficient organization. Whenever
a trade is thoroughly organized. there
are no strikes"
