Scope and Contents
Irene Sylvester Chubb was sent again to Washington to lobby for the Fitzgerald bill for workmen's compensation. John Andrews worked closely with Gifford Pinchot, newly elected Governor of Pennsylvania, on many issues relative to labor law administration. Abraham Epstein wrote that he had become associated with the Eagles fraternal organization and would be working with Frank Hering on old age pensions (9/11/22). Louis Varlez (9/21/22) and Stephen Bauer (12/9/22) wrote that the IALL missed the cooperation of the American branch, and urged Andrews to work for unification of all the international organizations interested in social progress. The program for 1923 emphasized a living wage, unemployment relief, mine accident prevention, and workmen's compensation.
