Mr. Eredeic W. Gardner,
Chairman Buck’s Stove A- Range Co.,
St. Louis. Mo.
My Bear Mr. Gardner:
Your exceedingly kind favor of tho2Ist
inst. has just been read and I want to ex-
press the gratification I feel in having in a
small way assisted in bringing about an ad-
justment of the difficulties which you had
inherited when assuming management of
the Buck’s Stove and Range Co.
Knowing you as long as 1 have, and being
familiar with your friendly attitude and
fairness of mind in all matters relating to
the conditions affecting labor, it was a
pleasure for me to do anything which
might prove of assistance to you. I feel
that what little 1 may have done is but in a
small way repaying the obligations which
you have placed me under because of your
kindly assistance in bringing about better
understanding and friendly relations be-
tween the Stove Foundrytnen and the mem-
bers of the Moulders’ Union.
Very respectfully yours,
JOS. F. VALENTINE,
President of,the International Moulders'
• Union of North America. a
