Francis J. Gorman was thrust into the national limelight by the vote of the United Textile Work- ers giving him supreme command of the general textile walkout. He was a messenger in a woolen mill in Bradford, Yorkshire, Eng- in Mills as Child land, when his family in 1903 de-, cided to seek :the greater opportun- ities they heard existed in America, but fdr Gorman it meant merely another textile mill. Skiiled Wool Sorter He became a skilled wool sorter in Providence, R. I, and Lawrence, Mass., and within a few years be- came president of the Rhode Island wool sorters union. He gained prom- inenoe in textile union circles in a famous strike in Pawtucket, and in, 1924 left the textile looms to become a paid officer of the United Textile Workers. man acquired a fund of informa- tion cn economics and social serv- ice, and facility of expression that has made him an effective speaker. In his periods of relaxation—and there have been very few in recent months—he spends hours listening to symphonies and other music. He's something of a joker and even during the nerve-wracking hours of the present textile crisis his mer- ry quips frequently relieve the ten- sion at strike headquarters.
