Inc. Mr.. Schuneman, who was
born in Kansas City, Mo-. octo-
Der 81, 1886, first came to st.
Paul as a lad in 1892. He attended
Irving School. Mechanic Arts high
school and is a graduate of st.
Paul academy. He completed q
general academic course at Yale
University in 1908.
Following his graduation, he
worked for time in the James
MeQuerry Department Store in
New York City, where Mr..
Schuneman feels he learned much
about the retail department store
business.
The present store grew out of a
partnership, Schuneman and
Evans, which started in Leaven-
worth, Kansas. The store moved to
st. Paul in 1888. Mr.. Schuneman
was elected president of the COM
pany in 1914.
In MI. Schuneman's modest Of
flee hang some exceptionally in
teresting pictures, citations and
pencil etchings. Mr.. Schuneman
and his wife, the former Imogene
Burch. of Minneapolis, who were
married on January 1. 1916, are
both active members of the board
of directors of the st. Paul Urban
League. Mr.. Schuneman was elect
ed president of the board of direc-
tors last year to succeed, the Rev.
Francis J. Gilligan. Mrs. Schune-
man serves as chairman of the
membership committee and the
publicity committee of the Ur-
ban League. At the Leagues an
nual meeting on September rs,
1852, Mr.. and Mrs. Schuneman re-
ceived a citation "for helping to
infuse democratic ideals into the
realities of daily living in this
community"
AS a result of an Urban League
inquiry among retail stores rela-
tive to their racial hiring and up
grading policies. Schuneman's was
one of the first stores in st. Paul
to recognize the rights of Negro
women to be employed in various
capacities in their store. There are
approximately 81 Negro women
now employed at the store, with a
number of them selling in various
departments.
The busy executive has also
been very active in other fields: he
is a member of the board Of
trustees of the First Presbyterian
church, White Bear. In 1926 he
headed the Community Chest
campaign. He also serves as vice
president of the board of Trustees
of Manchester College and as di-
rector of the Empire National
Bank.
One of his most fascinating ap-
pointments, Mr.. Schuneman
states, was when he was assistant
secretary of the United States
Treasury from 1926 to 1929. in
charge Of the public building pro-
gram. Under this program. the
new St Paul and Minneapolis
post offices were built On the
walls of his office hang these ap-
pointments, one signed by the late
Calvin Coolidge and the other by
Herbert Hoover.
Mr.. Schuneman has been a
member of the St Paul Rotary
Club since 1925. He has also serv-
ed on the Employed Boys Com
mittee of the YMCA; president of
the Minnesota Crippled Children's
Society and director Of the YMCA.
