Labor Is Watching Its Leaders
Martin, Anne | March 2, 1921 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the situation of labor in Nevada. The labors are in revolt against the policy carried out in the election last fall by leaders of the Plumb Plan League and by labor, its mouthpiece. The League is composed of sixteen railway labor organizations, twelve of which are craft unions and are affiliated with the American Federation of Labor. The other four are the great railway brotherhoods. All have local unions in Nevada. Nevada, the "battle-born" Republican State, admitted into the union in 1864 to give the U.S. President Abraham Lincoln increased strength in the Senate, has for many years been under the control of the Democratic Party.
