Abstract:
Records, primarily from 1920-1974, of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers. Primarily on microfilm produced by the union, the records include files from the international president's office, mostly concerning relations with employers (organizing drives, contracts, and strikes), other unions and labor organizations, and local and district lodges, especially regarding the railroad, automobile, aircraft, and firefighting equipment industries; collective bargaining agreements, 1961-1975, from the research department; and a script for the 1950 radio play “Boomer Jones,” and miscellaneous publications from the organizing department. Included in these extensive files is correspondence, minutes, statistics, reports, and other documents, though no convention proceedings are present. Concentrations of material concern jurisdictional disputes with other unions, the Railway Labor Executives' Association, the American Federation of Labor, the National Labor Relations Board, cases of security risk charges against union members, the National Urban League, international labor groups, and other organizations.
