Biographical History
Lawyer, of New York.
Labor lawyer and author.
Walter Gordon Merritt (1880-1968) was the son of a Danbury, Ct. hatshop owner. He graduated from Harvard and went to New York Law School, afterwards becoming a partner in the law firm of Windels, Merritt & Ingrahamat. Merritt had a successful career as a labor lawyer representing management; his most famous case was "Dietrich E. Lowe and Martin Fuchs vs. Martin Lawler, et al.," popularly known as the "Danbury Hatters Case." He also authored a number of articles on issues of labor relations. As might be expected, they are largely written from the management perspective.
