W.T.. Of N. HAS
TAKEN NEW NAME
Is Now International Union of
Mine, Mill and Smelter
Men.

The historic Western Federation of
Miners has changed it's title and is
now the International Union of Mine,
Mill and Smelter Workers.
Thus passes one of the historic
names in the world of organized
labor The change was approved by
the American Federation of Labor
convention at Baltimore few weeks
ago.
The change was made because the
Western Federation is no longer
western, but has organizations even
In Atlantic seabOard states. When
the Western Federation was organ
lied it was purely a Rocky Noun
tain organization. It now has be-
come national, and therefore, wished
to drop title that indicated a. Sec
tional organization.
The Western Federation Of Miners
has Figured largely in some of the
most dramatic struggles of the last
quarter century. OF these the Meyer,
Haywood and Pettibone trials prob
ably were the most conspicuous,
The American Federation of Labor
approved the change in the title
when assured that the change meant
no attempt to extend jurisdiction
into fields of labor belonging to other
organizations.

Members of the Duluth local of

was raised through a theatrical per-
formance given at the Grand theater
last October for the benefit of the
widows of the late John (Kelly)

zon, who were drowned near Nc
Gregor while duck hunting, have de.
cided that the local union will give
each widow $50 a month from the
fund subscribed by Duluthians> In
general for their benefit
So far Mrs. Lorentzon has received
two checks of $50 each while Mrs.
Pendergast has received nothing.
Committees that have waited on her
have reported to the union that she
says she is not in need, as yet having
received 5000 from two local lodges
of which her husband was a men,

J. L. Morrissey, manager Of the
Lyceum theater, said that there are
still some collections to be made
which will be turned over to the
fund. Some of the people who took
tickets to sell have not yet brought
back either the money or the tickets.
He says that in one instance a men,
ber of the union took ten tickets and
has not yet reported.

The change has been not alone
in improved safety, in the working
conditions and to some extent in the
wages of the men, but the whole life
on ship board has been improved,
and instead Of the old spirit of Bit
terncss and hatred. inevitable, under
the slave laws that held the men,
there is an air of freedom and a
growing recognition of rights and re-
sponsibilities on the part of every1
body connected with tt > ship. 1t is
certain that after the Seamen's Act
has been in operation another year or
two, that not even the ship owners
will want to repeal it. Instead, we
will find that all other maritime ma
tons will follow the. lead set by the
United States"
The internationalism Of the con-
Nventjon was strongly emphasized; by
the presence and active participation
in it of delegates from Great Bri-
