Editor New Mexican,

Dear Sir:
| am enclosing herewith a copy oil

est you.
On June Is, 1918, 1881 journeymen
members Of this union and 656 ap-
prentices we're in the army and navy
forces Of the United States and
Canada.
Seventy-five Of our members have
fallen in battle in France or have
died in military camps in America.
To the widows, orphans, fathers,
mothers or other relatives of these
men this International Union has has
paid mortuary benefits amounting to
$22,350.
During the past ~ months this In
ternational Union has paid $354,0 900
to 1900 old age pensioners.
In the same period this union has
paid mortuary benefits amounting to
$312,400.
The total expense for the main
tenance and for improvements at the
Union Printers Home at Colorado
Springs last year was $167,600.
This union has invested 100000
in each of the three Liberty Loans
100000 in all. Our subordinate or
CARNATIONS and Individual members
have invested more than $4,000, 600 In
these securities.
Our strike expenses for the past IL
months were but $1237.
The gross earnings Of our members
amounted to more than ST., 100000
for the year for $4,000 members, and
the insignificant amount expended
reflects our determination to give
full patriotic support to the govern
ments under which we live In the
terrific responsibilities which now
confront us all.
The officers Of this International
Union are volunteers in the army for
the preservation of industrial peace
for the duration of the war at least,
and we do level best to give full
effect to the earnest recommends
lions made by President Wilson in
his proclamation creating the ma
tional war labor board. There should
be no strikes or lockouts during the
war.
This international Union neither
solicits nor accepts contributions to
its benefit funds. Every dollar ex-
pended for these purposes is paid by
members of this organization in the
form of regular dues and assess
ments.
Yours sincerely,
MARSDEN G. SCOTT.
President.
