Industrial Organizer
Official Organ of the Motor Transport and Allied Workers Industrial Union Local 544-CIO
The Industrial Organizer, the continuation of the Northwest Organizer which ended in July of 1941, was the voice of the most militant section of the U.S. working class in the late 1941. [The Industrial Organizer published through May of 1942 when it ceased publication. We have only 9 issues available but we will add the full run of the paper by the end of 2012.] The Trotskyist lead Local 544-CIO was under attack by both Daniel Tobin, the boss of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters and the FDR government who saw Local 544-CIO as a threat to labor peace they were trying to impose on the northern Central States. Much of the paper is is devoted to defending the Local from these attacks are well as reports on other militant actions by the working class during this period.
Special Note of thanks to the following individuals and institutions that made copies of the Industrial Organizer available and help scan and process them for this archive: Dr. Marty Goodman and Robin Palmer of the The Riazanov Project and Rod Holt and David Walters from the The Holt Labor Library.
