A propos de cet article

- Small quarto [12 inches high by 9 inches wide], softcover bound in pictorial black-and-white self-wraps. 32 pages. Profusely illustrated with black-and-white cartoons, some of them by S. Raskin.

The remaining bottom page corners are bumped & there is occasional light soiling. Good.

The depression decreased its membership, but by the mid-1930s it had strengthened sufficiently to play a leading part in the creation of the CIO. Sidney Hillman became an influential political figure and a key advisor to Franklin D. Roosevelt on labor and economic issues. He served on the board of the National Recovery Administration and during World War II was named associate director of the Office of Production Management, which helped mobilize the nation's resources for the war effort. The ACWA merged with the Textile Workers of America in 1976, forming the ACTWU, which in 1995 merged with the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union to form the Union of Needletrades, Industrial and Textile Employees [UNITE].Rare.…
