Can.—Tom Moore, 67. { veteran labor leader who retired four year* ago after 25 years’ ser vice as president of the Canadian Trades and Labor Congress, died here, ps the result of a stroke suf fered in 1942. ■ Mr. Moore was a native of Leeds, England, settled in Niagara Falls in 1909. He joined the United Brotherhood of Carpenters there and served in many capacities un- . til coming to Ottawa in 1919. He represented Canadian labor at conferences a t London, Genova? Washington, Amsterdam and Ky oto, Japan, and for several years served on the governing body of the International Labor Organiza tion JEWELL, RAIL UNION CHIEF. RETIRES A-PtER 28 YEARS W’aashington, D. C. — Bert M. I Jewell, for 28 eventful years the ■ battling champion p( the AFL! railroad brotherhoods, has stepped down as president of the Railway Employes’ Department of the Fed eration and has turned over the reins to Fred N. Aten, vice presi dent of the Carmen. Aten has been his chief aide for the last j two years. Jewell, one of the most militant leaders in the AFL movement, was on the firing line in every major engagement of railroad workers for improved working conditions and higher wages through more than a quarter of a century. Starting his apprenticeship as a boilermaker at the age of 19 in the shops at High Springs, Fla., for what is now the Atlantic Coast Line, Jewel! completed his train* ing 41 years ago and joined the Boilermakers' Union. Thereafter he became a “boomer,” roaming the country and spreading the gospel of unionism wherever he went. In 1912 he settled down in Jack sr nville, Fla., and became extreme ly active in the affairs of the Boil ermakers. He held about every of fice in his local there and became leader also In the Jacksonville Cen tral Labor Council. He played an j important role in negotiating an j agreement on the Seaboard and in winning a regional contract which ] covered nearly all shopcraft em ployes in the Southeast. In 1916, at the urging of Presi dent J. A. Franklin, now president emeritus, Jewell joined the Boiler makers’ staff as a grand lodge rep resentative. He got a leave of ab sence from the Seaboard, retaining his seniority there. The next few years were devoted to organizing both boilermakers and other crafts on the railroads, in the shipyards and contract shops of the south Atlantic and Gulf states. He parti cipated in many major wage nego tiations. It was in August, 1918, that Jewell moved to the position he was destined to hold for the next 28 years. He was named acting president of the Railway Employ es’ Department, substituting for A. O. Wharton. Jewell was elected full-fledged president in 1922. In the subsequent years, he play ed a commanding role in every ma jor wage movement on the rail roads, as well as in manv brilliant battles for legislation sought by the rail unions. What will he do next? “Oh, just rest and take things easy for a while,” he says. IS 32 SAN FRANCISCO HOTELS I SIGN WITH THE AFL UNION { - —— ■ - » £>an Francisco, Calif. — Thirty- jj two major hotels were represented J in a five-year agreement signed * by the joint executive board of £ the Hotel and R»«tid?aht Employ- E es International Alliance (AFL) jj with the San Francisco Hotel Em- J ployea Association. Hi order to stress the importance , ?il the agreement, it was signed in J the office of Mayor Roger D. Lap-1J ham. The contract, which expired J j in 1945, was a continuation of a j three-year agreement but in or- j j der to avert interference with the j war effort, was extended for a i year by request of the War La- i bor Board. HANNAH TAKES OATH Washington, D. C.—Phil Han- , neh, former secretary-treasurer of the Ohio State Federation of La bor, was sworn in as assistant sec-] rctary of Labor. Mr. Hannah or- i ganized a gas station attendants’ union in Cleveland and later was an active worker in the Team sters’ International. He became the secretary-treasurer of the Ohio Federation in 1942. m ^ -• • ■ :. j JOIN THE MARINES | I IVe are Proud to wear this Emblem Never Before has Service in the Marine Corps offered so many Oppor-{ tunities in £ducation, Specialized Trainings, Pay Advantages and] Advancement. Enlistments Now Accepted for 2, 3 or 4 Year Terms\ The new plan of short term enlistments has a lot to offer right now, when condi tions in civil life are quite unsettled. These short term enlistments offer you two things right away. First, they offer the Immedi ate advantages of good pay, good food, healthy and interesting living, and a chance to learn a useful and profitable trade. Sec ond, they offer you a chance to settle in your own mind whether or not you want to make the Marine Corps a permanent ca reer, as many young men do. You do not need to interrupt your educa tion, for the Marin# Corps Institute offers you the chance to complete your High School courses and to qualify for College credits if you wish. You can almost literal ly “write your own ticket" in respect to what studies you want to pursue and how tag you want to carry them. And these courses are free. Not only do you get good food, good quarters, comfortable, well-fitting uniforms,< the finest equipment in the world to work! with, but also there are pay benefits toj those who enlist now which have never' been exceeded in the long history of this famous organization. The Marine Corps makes you a genuine business proposition in every sense of the term, a proposition that, whether you stay permanently in the Corps or not, offers you lifelong benefits. Many employers, many leaders in busi ness and Industry give preference to former Marines when Jobs are being given out. These men know what the Marine Corps training means, in resourcefulness, in abil ity and in leadership.
