FOR BEST GRADES AND SERVICE ON LUMBER AND BUILDING SUPPLIES WOLL TAKES MESSAGE TO MORE UNIONS Continues Addresses to In ternational Conventions, Meeting With Molders as Latest Move in Great Speaking Campaign. Washington, D. C. (I. L. N. S.).— Matthew Woll, president of the Un ion Labor Life Insurance Company, continues his record-breaking speak ing tour, carrying the message of his company to international unions in convention. During the last week he addressed two conventions, the latest having been that of the International Mold ers' Union of North America, meeting in Montreal. The plan of organization was ex plained, the form of policies made plain to the delegates and the bene fits of group insurance, as well as the necessity for individual policies de scribed to the gathering presided over by M. J. Keough. Mr. Woll will continue this practice of addressing international union con ventions, furthering the interests of the company in which the entire trade union movement is interested, until it is time to depart for the convention of the American Federation of Labor in New Orleans in mid-November. At the company's headquarters it is reported that the volume of busi ness continues in more than satisfac tory manner, showing the receptive ness of trade unionists to the protec tion offered by their own company. The work of organizing the various states under general agencies, with adequate soliciting forces is contin uing as rapidly as possible and the company is now far in advance of the stage reached by any life insurance company in so short a time.

The convention elected President Bowen to the position of president emeritus at an annual salary of $10, 000 when he retires the first of the year. He will be succeeded by Vice President Thornton. 50-50 IS THE CHEW i©ip HAHMONY MM
