Abstract:
Mainly radio scripts, 1941-1944, for broadcasts sponsored by a labor group organized in Dane County, Wisconsin during World War II and reactivated during the Korean War to coordinate union aid to government war programs. War profits, overtime duty, the draft, workers' education, and labor's attitude toward the national war effort are among the topics treated in the radio scripts. Ten items, 1950-1952, relate to the organization's activity during the Korean conflict. The collection also includes a folder of Wisconsin State Employees' Association correspondence, 1938-1941, and a sample copy of a constitution for local chapters.
