International Typographical Union Burial Fund Details
James M. Lynch, president of the International Typographical Union, explains the burial fund system. The home office in Indianapolis sends $70 per death to subordinate locals, boosting funeral support to often about $100, plus local funds, making a sound safety for dependents. From 1902 to 1907, disbursements totaled $449,105 with 1907 at $349,170, reflecting emphasis on dignified funerals funded by members’ shares and local aid.
