Difficulty of Making Them See the
Value of Unionism.
There have been several attempts in
past years to unioniZe clerks Of various
kinds, but without success, says cor
respondent of the Chicago News. Yet
there are now in Chicago two Organi-
cations devoted to the interests of the
bookkeeper. The writer is member
of one of these bodies as well as of
one in another city and is familiar
with the operation of other similar or
CARNATIONS and has seen them produc-
tive of much good more so in other
places than in Chicago, for the reason
that here their efforts are sadly ham
pered by the apathy of the very men
they seek to aid. The bookkeeper is
generally looked upon as a necessary
evil and an expense which 1t Is good
business policy to keep down, whereas
his work is as great a factor in the de-
velopment and growth of a business
as any other. All branches of employ
ment must necessarily depend one
upon the other, and each is but a cog
in the wheel But, no matter how
many wheels or cogs may exist, the of
fee records are the governor, which,
with proper use, controls the business
machine The man responsible de-
serves recognition and is receiving 1t
today more and more. And associa-
tons such as l have described are 81
lent but none the less potent factors
to this end.
Every bookkeeper should be a mem
Der of his professional body, strength
ened and benefited by association with
his fellow craftsmen and frightened
and made more valuable to his employ
er by the knowledge he obtains in this
way. l have often seen men discour-
aged by complications in their work
come to meetings and, after discussion
of the principles involved, go away full
~ equipped to overcome what seemed
to be an insurmOuntable difficulty.
Then who shall say that such bodies
are for the benefit not only of the book
keeper, but of the employer as well
For the employer ultimately reaps the
benefit the association has conferred
upon his employee

Mavor Wouldn't Be Influenced.

After Mayor Rushlight of Portland,
Ore. had refused to yield to the iEa'
portunities of strong delegation or
union labor men who asked that Der
thil Anderson be appointed as chief
inspector of electricity in the building
inspection department he suddenly
changed his mind and appointed An

came after lie had been handed a copy
of news letter mailed by the EN-
ployers' Association of Oregon to its
members. The letter stated that the
mayor would probably appoint Ander-
