THONAS CUSACK I PAEUNONIA VICTIH Noted Advertising Man Retired Since 1088 Chicago, Nov. 20 (—Thomas Cusack, 68, Irish immigrant, who' built up here one of the largest out- door advertising businesses fn the United States, died yesterday of pneumonia. Death followed a short {ilnees at his Oak Park home, where he had spent most of his time since he retired three years ago from the company which he founded. | Active in his prime as a civie and political figure, Cusack was best known for his cordial relations with | his employes. It was his pride that| he never was confronted by a strike of his workmen. “When I was a lad. he remarked once, “everybody want- ed to pay everybody else too little.” In his life time, he asserted, the| wages of sign painters Increased by | more than 1,000 per cent. “When I started as a sign painter,” he re- called, “we got $8 & week. Now I pay my men $10 to $15 a day.” Brave and Modest Always a picturesque figure, he was found a few years ago after the wreck of a train on which he was a pessenger, wielding an ax and | treeing passengers imprisoned in the | crash. Newspapermen pressed him for the detalls of his heroism, re-| lated by others aboard the train. He referred them to a pullman porter and safd: “Here was the real hero. Have him tell you what he did and forget about me.” Cusack was brought to the United States from Ireland when 3 years old by his parents, who died two years later. ~He brought himself to manhood and through a college edu- cotlon by hard work, and after fin- | ishing college began painting signs. In 1903 he organized the Thomas Cusack Company, which covered the countryside with biliboards and ad- vertising signs. He leaves three sons daughters. i Cusack took an interest in politics soon after coming to Chicago in 1868, and served as a delegate to several natlonal democratic conven- | tions. 1 and two WA BE| ) LA 5 RAYMOND ERY ‘WYERE HATTON Battery Service Successor to Gould Battery Scrvice Oo. 170 Edst Main, near Summer BATTERY CHARGING AND REPAIRING Generator, Starter Repairing GOULD BATTERIES FREL TESTING, REF Phone 708--Ask for Rudy DENTIST Dr, A.
