No round wooden suits with knotholes for
them! Should emergencies come—they’re set.
This automatic saving is the world’s most prac-
tical way of getting the things they want, too,
like education . . . travel ... a home of their
own.
Low-Cost Electric Service is still the
best bargain in your family budget.
For suggestions on how to make it do
more things for you—to help you live
better—please call or come in to see

was a dominant figure in helping to
tide over a period of unemployment
and restlessness which, without his
help, might have become influenced
by the germs of revolt prevalent the
world over.
He was successful in maintaining
the morale of his organisation and
resisting the efforts made toward the
disintegration of the forces of labor
during the period of readjdstment. He
was keenly interested in all attempts
made to stabilize production and thus
guarantee a higher standard "of life

ing a new Congress next November
which will be truly liberal and pro
gressive.
Through Labor’s League for Poli-
tical Education, the American Federa-
tion of labor will conduct intensified
campaigns to bring out a record regi-
tration and a big vote. I appeal To
every member of the American Fed-
eration of lAhbor and to all the friends
of labor to do their part by making
certain to register and vote in 1950
We are confident that we can elect
labor’s friends and detdat labor's
enemies with a full vote
It will then be possible to repeal
the shameful Taft-Hartley Act and
to make definite progress toward the
realization of liberal social seurity
laws, decent housing programs, the
enjoyment of civil rights by all and
a richer and fuller life for the Am-
erican people Those are goals in 1950
==e g2e
for wage earners the world over.
The last weeks of his life witnessed
a most extraordinary rounding out of
plans and activity extending over
Years. in the thrilling international
demonstrations at El Paso, Juarez
and Mexico City. He helped to make
possible a Mexican Federation of La-
bor and participated in the celebra-
tion of the firat constitutional sue-
cession to office at a president, and
that president was elected by the la-
borers of Mexico.
He has just been unanimously re-
elected president of the Americen
Federation of .Labor and of the Pan-
American Federation at Labor, of
which be was founder, and was en-
gaged in most important service when
the end came Dec. 3, 1324. His last
words were for the-republic he loved
so dearly:
"God bleu our American institu-
tions. May they grow better day by
day."
