Biographical History

Formerly International Union, United Automobile, Aircraft, and Agricultural Implement Workers of America Local 236; represented workers in the car springs industry; now defunct.

From the description of Records, 1946-1973. (Wayne State University). WorldCat record id: 28413963

Local 3 was the bargaining unit for workers at the Dodge Main Plant in Hamtramck, Michigan from 1935 to 1980 when the Hamtramck Assembly was demolished. Its 26,000 members made it the largest single plant local in the country in 1937. Established in 1933 as AFL Federal Labor Union 18277. Local 3 was involved in many important activities in the UAW. It served as the initial base of support for UAW vice-president Richard Frankensteen in the early intra-union.

Factionalism of the UAW. During the UAW's formative years, Local 3 was famous in the Detroit area for its active flying squadron unit. It was also the birthplace of the Dodge Revolutionary Union Movement (DRUM) which was organized by dissident African-American unionists and spread to other UAW organized auto plants in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
