V&» Kay 15, 1930 Mr. James J, Finn, Editor, The Projectionist, 45 West 45th St., New York, N.Y. My dear Sir: I want to say a few words about my good friend, Thomas E. Maloy. We went to school together and even in those days he was something of a leader among the boys. I have watched his progress in labor circles and have a high regard for him and for his achievements. At all times he has had the welfare of his fellow workers at heart and this, I believe, has accounted for his success. He is a most loyal and generous friend and I wish him all the luck in the world. Yours^va^y truly, (/%%. QUfa* PHIL W. COLLINS PWC/H 220 SOUTH ASHLAND BOULEVARD CHICAGO, ILL. May 15, 1930. Mr. James J. Finn, Editor, The Projectionist, 45 West 45th Street, Hew York, N. Y. Dear Mr. Finn: The selection of Thomas E. Maloy as Fraternal Delegate to the British Trades Dnion Congress is a worthy recognition of an eminent and loyal trade unionist. For nearly twenty years Tommy has served the Moving Picture Operators* Union in an official capacity. His diplomacy, ability and experience ha3 been a valuable asset, not only to his own organization but to the labor movement in general. There is no organized group of men in America enjoying the conditions and compensation of his organization. This success has been brought about in the main by the sterling leadership and agressive fighting qualities of Tommy. He has been ready at all times to give moral or material support to any sister local in trouble or distress. The Teamsters and Chauffeurs Organization, of which I am a member, stand ever ready to cooperate, work in accord and harmony with him, being mindful of the fact that he stands for the highest ideals of the Trades Union Movement. Tommy has represented his organization as a delegate to the Chicago Federation of Labor for a number of years. Leaders in the labor movement in Chicago, taking cognizance of his merits and experience, have councilled his wisdom and advice. The delegates of the Convention, representing the entire Labor movement of America, are to be congratulated upon their Judgment in conferring this distinction upon so capable a man. We bid Tommy "Bon Voyage", a pleasant and profitable Journey and a safe return to us. We know that he will acquit himself honorably and prove himself a distinctive loyal American Trades Unionist, assisting in cementing a bond of friendship and fraternalism between workers of America and Great Britain.
