landed their stores. This is Oporto,
called by. the Portuguese o Porto (the
port. The town was given as dowry

Power Of Unionism Shown.

Chicago, Sept. 3.-"This proves
that where the politician, the civil
service law and the legislature fail
to conserve our interests, our trade
union activities do not fail us"
The above Is A. F. of L. Organ
izer Fitzpatrick's concluding SEN
tence in his report of organized la
Dor S successful effort to secure the
following gains In state charitable
institutions:
Equal pay for men and women,
one day rest in seven, an automatic
increase in wages based on length
of service, change of shifts every
seven days instead of every month
as heretofore.
Organizer Fitzpatrick shows that
from the time hospital attendants
and nurses in this state organized,
less than two years ago, their gains
have been continuous, despite Office
holders opposition. The first gain
was changing the IL and 14-hour
day to an eight-hour day. The
legislature then reduced appropria
tions for these institutions, and also
defeated the bill providing for one
days rest in seven. Regardless OF
these handicaps, the state board of
administration, aided by trade un-
ionists, worked out system of
gains that places Illinois in the van
In its treatment of workors in state
institutions, and justifes Organizer
Fitzpatrick S opirion that the trade
union can be depended on, even
though Office holders ignore just
demands.

heirs of worker who was suffoca-
ted in tank, even though the
worker had contributed nothing to

ceding his death. The board held
that this was probably due to lack
of employment Benefits were
awarded based upon his average
contributions for three years prior
to his death.

"

The county and city officials have
not been invited to take part in
the Labor Day parade this year.
The council some time ago decided
that they wanted a strictly union
parade and that if any of the city
or county officials were union men
and members of an organization
they can march with such organi-
cation. The reason for this action
by the council was brought about
by some of the local uniens object
ing to officials displaying them
selves on Labor Day and not being
friends of labor the balance of the
year. Therefore this year the pa
rade will be strictly union pa
rade.
