CHARLES VAUGHN
Laid to Rest Saturday After
noon in Greenwood
Cemetery

Charles Vaughn, who was killed
late Wednesday night of last week by
being struck by a Detroit passenger
train at the Baltimore & Ohio cross
ing at South Hamilton, was laid to
rest in beautiful Greenwood cemetery
last Saturday afternoon. The serv-
ives at the home on Buckeye street
were largely attended, the house and
surrounding lawn being packed with
the relatives and friends calling to
pay their last sad respects to the
dead.
Charlie" Vaughn, a few years
back, was one of the most active fig
ures in local organized labor circles.
He was machinist by trade and for
number of years was president of
the local Machinists' Union and held
many other minor offices of trust in
the organization of his craft. He was
for many years delegate to the local
Trades Council, and for several years
its president. His reputation as a
labor leader was not only local, but.
statewide. He was at one time a
vice president of the Ohio State Fed
GRAFTON of Labor He attended many
state conventions as delegate and his
voice was lifted many times in the
cause of the workers. He was also
for several years general organizer in
this, district for the American Fedora
tion of Labor, during which time he
organized quite a number of local
unions in this city and vicinity, and
whose members today are being rich
ly benefited through organization
formed, as a result of the untiring
efforts of Charlie" Vaughn.
For many years Vaughn was en-
ployed at the American Can Com
pany's plant. When the strike was
ordered at all plants of this company
Vaughn was thrown out of employ
ment, and because of his union activ-
tiles found it difficult to secure job
in the local shops. This decided him
to enter business for himself. He
opened a cafe and was in this business
at the time he was killed
At the time of his death he was
member of the Machinists' Local No
242, the Eagles and Moose lodges, in
which organizations he always took
active part and in whose circles he
will be much missed.
To the widow and relatives remain
ing to mourn his loss, the deep SYM
pathy of local organized labor is ex-
tended.

ARTHUR BURNS
Vice President MOlders' In
ternational Addressed
Union Members at Big
Meeting Monday

One of the largest gatherings of
local molders at one time for long
while in Hamilton was that at the
joint meeting of Stove Molders' Union
No 283, and Iron Molders' Union No.
68, held in labor temple last Monday
night. More than 200 molders were
present, packing the spacious hall.
The purpose of the meeting was to
meet and hear Arthur Burns, vice
president Of the international Union
of Molders. His talk was on the Hol
land Furnace Company case, which
the molders throughout the country
are giving much attention, time and
money these days. The Holland fur
mace is being made by non-union mold |
ers and the Molders' International
Union has declared the furnace un-
fair to its organization Vice Presi- |
dent Burns has been assigned to this
controversy between the Holland
Company and his union, and is to de-
vote his entire time to it alone. An
intensive statewide campaign is to
be wages against the product and es
pecially so in this, the Miami valley.
The local molders' organizations
will give the campaign active sup
port They would have the public
know that, while the local agency ad-
yertises the furnace will be installed
by union workmen and union-made fit
tings used, that the advertisement is
misleading in. that it tends the public
to believe that the Holland is union
made furnace, which is not true. 1t
may be true that it will be Installed
by union men and that unionmade
fittings are used, but the furnace is
not union made because it is not made
by union molders.
The members of the local Molders
Unions ask that all union men and
their friends aid them in this cam
paign to inform the public of the
true conditions, in that the Holland
furnace is not made by union molders,
is unfair to their organization, and
that those contemplating buying
furnace buy only those that are union
made.

REFERENDUM
Petition on the Sale of Elec-
trio Distributing System
Being Circulated

At a special called meeting of
Trades Council on Tuesday night, a
referendum petition to submit to the
voters on November A, 1924, the ques-
tion of the sale of the city's electric
light distributing system, which pc
tition is now being circulated for
signatures, the support of organized
labor was asked for. The electrical
workers delegates reported their cr-
ganization is supporting the move
ment which was started by those who
are opposed to the city abandoning
its own electric plant, and they asked
that Trades Council concur in their
action After much discussion of the
subject, pro and con, a motion that
Trades Council concur in the action
of the Electrical Workers Union and
approve of same carried.
The petitions are now being circu-
lated and rapidly signed. Many are
signing, not because they exactly dis
approve of selling the electric distrib-
uting system, but because they want
the matter to have longer considera-
ton; they are not sure just which IS
best, and believe by putting the mat
ter off until next November the peo-
pie will have had ample time to think
it over and decide just what they want
done. In other words, by and through
the referendum the people are to have
the last and final say. The action of
practically agreeing to accept the

terms submitted by the Union Gas
& Electric Company came too sudden
for some; the result is the petition.
Following is copy of the petition
being circulated:
Petition
To Ernst E. Erb, City Auditor of the
City of Hamilton, Ohio:
We, the undersigned, electors of the
City of Hamilton, Ohio, respectfully
order that Council Ordinance No. 2172,
entitled, Authorizing the sale of GER
tain personal property and fixtures of
the Hamilton municipal electric light
plant, on condition that the purchaser
continue the furnishing of electric cur
rent for the period, on the conditions
and at the rates herein specified" shall
be referred to the electors for their
approval or rejection, at the regular
or general election to be held on the
4th day of November, A. D. 1924, and
each for himself says: | know the
contents of and have personally sign
ed this petition, and my residentce is
correctly stated opposite my name.
We hereby designate and appoint
David Pierce, Leona Gadd and Charles
l.. Murphy as a committee to act for
us and in our behalf
The petition requires a total number
of signers approximating 10 per cent
of the total number of votes cast for
the heads of the ticket at the previous
election. Since nearly $4,000 votes
were cast for mayor at the recent
election, nearly 1,500 names will be
required on the petition.
