Organizers' Weekly Reports, 1956-1973 : These forms provide a summary of the activities and expenses of each organizer. The
files represent a qualitative sample of about 30 per cent of the original volume of
reports. For the years 1956-1967 the Society received all the organizers' reports.
For 1968-1973 we received only a sample chosen by the TWUA staff. All these records
are an addition to similar reports covering the years 1953-1955 which are contained
in the first installment of the collection. The 1953-1955 records also are a
qualitative sample chosen by the TWUA staff. To sample the 1968-1973 reports the
supervising archivist drew up lists of the organizers covered in the 1957, 1962, and
1965 files. These lists were compared with the lists for the 1953-1955 and 1968-1973
reports. All 1956-1967 files for every individual who appeared on at least three of
the five lists were then selected for preservation. In addition we also selected
reports of a few individuals who went on to attain important positions within the
union. By following this technique it was felt that we were preserving reports from
the long term organizers, and that these would reflect the more significant
organizing campaigns.
