officer in the union. Consequently,
when she went into the house COM
mittee room it was with the idea that
the committee ought to amount to
something. And she made it amount
to something.
She has made it more than a COM
mittee. 1t has become a clearing
house for the news Of the labor world.
Miss Wilson has spent most Of the
two years collecting accurate labor
data. Her father. as chairman Of the
COMMITTEES. saw to it that a number
of bills of importance to workers were
reported out of the house, and Miss
Wilson has been able to furnish to
congressmen facts for their speeches
in the house. with the result that a
number Of important bills have be-
come law during the present session
of congress.
This activity has brought Repre-
sentative Wilson into prominence in
Washington and before the country.
1t seems to be certain now that the
bill (Which has already passed the
house) creating a new department Of
labor will pass the senate during the
present session. On the assumption
thai the new department will be Gre
ated by law. most of the members Of
congress are urging Gov. Wilson to
name the chairman of the labor COM
mittee as its secretary. Wilson also
has the solid backing of the union la.
Dor movement.
The Pennsylvania man has had an
arduous life. and is an example Of
the American fact that a man can
rise to great heights from the hum
blest beginnings. He was an immi-
grant boy from Scotland. and at the
age of II he began to work in the
mines in Tioga county. Pa. Later he
held many offices in the mine workers
union. Miss Wilson is Of nine
children.
