Eisler referred to the fact that he

of badgering those persons and Or
ganizations which opposed the
causes she championed, and her
flaming red head was known the
length and breadth of this island
and in America, too.
mo woman in the whole of Brit
ain has been more active, more per-
sistent or more annoying" some one
once said of her, and it pleased
her.
Parliamentary Secretary.
She made a career of annoyance,
first as a school teacher, then as a
suffragist, a labor union organizer,
politician, novelist, journalist and
cabinet minister.
The only other woman who ever
served as cabinet minister was
Miss Margaret Bondfield, who was
Minister of Labor in 1889.
Before entering the cabinet, Miss
Wilkinson served as parliamentary
secretary, first to the Ministry of
Pensions and later to the Ministry
of Home Security, and was a dele
gate to the San Francisco confer
ence on the United Nations. She
served as a delegate to the first
United Nations Assembly in London
In January, 1946.
She had been a parliamentary
figure-an explosive one-since 1924
except for a defeat in the National
Government landslide of 1881. She
spoke at terrific speed and had no
particular cares about whom she
picked for foe in verbal row.
She 'had many Of them with Lady
Astor and several prime ministers
In 1897 she shook her fiery red
hair and loosed her oratory at a
sitdown strike in Detroit and on the
same trip she took an interested
look at Nebraska's unicameral legis-
lature, then in its first session.
"Our Ellen" to Workers.
Miss Wilkinson's principal fight
was on behalf of the British worker
but she also carried her fight to
France, Germany, Spain and India
Her fierceness in debate, coupled
with her hair and sometimes leftist
views, won her the nickname "Red
Ellen" but the workers called her
"Our Ellen" .e.
In private, life she was amiable
quiet and given to chess and reading
and was classed as q good cook. She
had written several books, including
some novels, which she said she was
impelled to write while sitting
through dreary debates in the House
of Commons.
During the war she served on the
Privy Council for a time and bossed
the women fire guards. She wa
twice bombed out of her home. She
once declared that her program as
Minister of Education was to get
young Britons educated for the
atom bomb era" She wanted to
bring the best education to all, in
Guiding the poorest in England. Her
own education was paid for by
scholarships from the age of II. She
held masters degree from the Uni
yersity of Manchester.
