Nationwide Campaign for
:. Organizations Launched
+ by the Federation.

A nationwide campaign for the or
ganization of Stenographers, Office
clerks. ana general non-organized en-
fee buildings has been launched by
the American Federation of Labor.
The announcement was made today
at federation headquarters. Two thou
sand general and volunteer or
ganizers have been instructed to bend
every effort for the success of the
campaign.
The growing conditions of unem-
ployment. possibilities of reduction in
wages in these lines and general
unstable situation in commercial fields
throughout the nation are the causes
for the start of the campaign.
John Giles, president of the local
organization of stenographers. typists
bookkeepers and assistants, who will
be in semi-supervisory capacity ir
the new campaign. declared today that
there were at present sixty local
unions of this type in existence in
the United States. These unions have
q membership Of 5000 in all.
Nucleus for Campaign.
This will be the nucleus for the
campaign. The field comprises 2.00O.-
600 workers of this classification in
the country. AS soon as the 10000
was declared, the Federation of Labor
will consider the issuance of a charter
to an international union. This is ex-
pected to be the halfway goal in the
campaign. AS soon as the interna-
tional union is organized, a closer
working group of organizers will be
formed under it's fostering, which
will endeavor to bring the proposed
international union to proportions
similar to others listed in the mem
bership of the federation.
U. s. Employees Ineligible.
1t was clearly stated that the fed
eral government employees would not
De eligible for membership in the To-
cal union of stenographers. Jurisdic-
ton for this group of employees has
been granted to federal employees
unions.
I'VE believe that stenographers and
typists will be the first and hardest
hit by any change which will take
place in this country" declared Mr.
Giles today. Unemployment is in
creasing daily. Prices show a ten
deney to go down, but unemployment
among unorganized workers is sure
to bring wages of this type down. On
this account we are making a special
effort to organize this class OF
workers."

On the brow of the bluff, overlook
ing the Fox river, near the village of
Little Rapids, stands an implanted
house, prominent in historic interest,
once the home of Eleazer Williams,
an Episcopal missionary among the
Oneida Indians and often referred to
as the lost dauphin of France. The
house is the original one, which for
merly stood on a point of land eX-
tending far out into the river. In
1847, when the Depere dam was built,
the overflow of water submerged the
point and the Rev Williams had the
house RACED, the logs carried to the
present location, and the house re-
built Probably no man ever lived
who had as many birthplaces and
parents as did Eleazer Williams. Ev-
cry writer has a different version of
his ancestry. Whether he was the son
of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette,
whose frivolity caused the overthrow
of the French throne, or the son of
Thomas Williams, the halfbreed, and
his Indian wife, his life was spent in
the interest of others His study,
apart from his dwelling, filled with
rare volumes and works of art, gave
mute evidence of his intellect and
ability. His home was the stopping
place of such men as Judge James
Duane Doty, Gov Nelson Dewey,
Judge John Lave, Solomon Juneau,
the Grignons, Episcopal and Catho-
lie clergy, and other notables. In
1921 the Rev Williams brought a
band of Oneida Indians from the state
of New York and colonized them on a
tract of land about eight miles from
Green Bay containing $4,000 acres,
