John Golden, Head
Oh Textile Workers,
Died In Fall River

Fail River, Mass. June e.-W-ord
was received here today Of the death
at Brooklyn, this morning, Of John
Golden, general president Of the Unit
ed Textile Workers Of America. Bur
ial will be III this city. where he has
made his home for many years.
John Golden was to the textile i'm.
ion labor movement Of America what
John Mitchell was to the mine work
ers-a leader. who worked his way up
from the ranks. He was born in Lam
cashire. Eng. in 1863, where, as a
boy. he began work in the cotton
mills. Biacklisted. he said, because
Of his activity in the Mule Spinners'
union. he came to the United States
in 1854 and located at Fail River,
: Mass, where he obtained employment
| at. his trade.
1t was in 1902, when Golden was
treasurer of the National Mule Spin
ners' organization of the United States
! and Canada, that the convention of
the United Textile Workers in session
at Lowell. Mass, elected him president
to succeed James Ramsey and each
! year. for 10 successive years. Golden
has been returned as head of the IN.
ion labor body with its $4,000 to
200. 900 members.
During the textile strike Of 1904
in Fall River. when $4,000 workers
were but. Golden made an i%rnrA:sicn-
ed speech before the convention Of the
American Federation Of Labor in San
Francisco as a result Of. which. it is
recorded, the A. r. OF L.. for the first
time in its history, levied an asses
ment on all its members for the sup
port Of the idle men and women tex
tile operatives OF Fall River. This
precedent has since been followed by
the A. F. Of L., in giving financial
support to other affiliated striking
trades.
In 1912 Golden was in charge Of
the textile strike Involving $4,000
workers Of Lowell and Lawrence.
Mass. Paterson. n. j.. and other mill
centers. His conservatism, waA shown,
it va said. Of several occasions when
he helped to avert walkouts. .Durine
the Manchester, N. H.. strike Of 1918
he appealed for federal mediation and
the result wal a compromise which
brought all the Operatives back tc
work.
Golden was one of the commission
ers Of the American union 1abo,
movement who. led by Samuel Com
pers, went to Great Britain and italy
in 1918 and by speech and pen
sought to convince their overseas fel-
lowcraft that the workers Of tbs
United States we're solidly back OF
their: government and the Allies in
winning the war.
Gplden's home was in Fall River
He and his wife. who survives him
have 20 grandchildren.

Women Men Admire

Men admire a pretty face, a good
figure, but most of all the happy,
healthy, contented woman, as beauty
fades and the figure will change.
Women who are troubled with back
ache, headaches, those dreadful drag
ging sensation, and nervous ilIitab-
ility, cannot hope to be popular. and
advancement in either home, business
or social life is impossible. The
cause of these troubles, however,
yields quickly to Lydia Z. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound, as it is
natural restorative for such con-
ditions. and dispels effectually al
those distressing symptoms.

at a recent address at Boston. rea-

upon its retention. The same pork
