WEALTHY WOMAN
CHARGES BROTHER
EXPLOITS LABOR
Sister Of Crane COmpany's
Head FaVorS Cause of
Striking Workers.

CHICAGO, Aug. 14.-An unusual let
ter from a woman who possesses great
wealth to a union organizer was made
public today. She is Mrs. Frances R
Lille. of Woods Hole. Mass. The
union organizer is John ]. Kilneski.
Mrs. Lille is a sister Of Charles r.
and Richard T. Crane. the latter presi-
dent OF Crane a. Co., in whose various
plants $500 men have been on strike
for q month. She writes to the organ
iZer:
81 feel sure that my brother be-
lieves, and Is encouraged to believe.
that he is a good and generous en-
ployer. but that cannot hide the fact
that the Crane family Is getting enor-
nous sums OF money from the labors
OF others without anything like COM
mensurate retL ms to society for IT.
THAT Is a sufficient evil in ITSELF
but besides that. we have through
our organization a power over the
lives of the employees that is. intol-
cradle in modern society.
"For that reason I believe that the
strike for the unionization OF the
Crane Company is wise and right,
and the gradual assumption of the
control Of. their lives. by workers in
the company is and must be only a
question OF time.
'.As for those OF the family who
have done little but injure them
