Agitation Committee of Upper Michigan. Finnish American labor and political organizations collection, 1890s-1990s.

Title: Finnish American labor and political organizations collection, 1890s-1990s.

Manuscript papers, minute books, financial ledgers, publications, and historical ephemera of different Finnish American labor and political organizations. The collection of Finnish Workers Federation plays and role manuscripts (K.6-10, about 5.5 linear ft.) includes 92 titles (of which 36 are complete plays), mostly of Finnish origin, but there are also some Finnish American pieces and translated German and Russian works. Additionally, music scores from the Finnish Workers Group include some 224 pieces of music. The Work People's College series (K.11) from 1917 to 1941 includes minutes and financial reports, a drama catalog, a semester report, some notes on the history of the WPC, as well as some correspondence. The Work People's College was founded in 1903 as the Finnish People's College and Theological Seminary and renamed in 1907 when the focus shifted to socialism and worker education. By 1921 Work People's College was closely identified with the Industrial Workers of the World until its final year of operation in 1941. The Communist Party series (K.12) consists of many newspaper clippings, press releases, and some correspondence from 1938 to 1953. There are several articles and an FBI report about Gus Hall, a Finnish American who was a leader of the Communist Party and its four-time U.S. presidential candidate. He was indicted under the Smith Act on charges of conspiracy to overthrow the U.S. government in 1948. Hall spent eight years in Leavenworth Federal Penitentiary. The Työmies Society and Finnish American Reporter series (K.15a-K.15f, about 6.5 linear ft.) dating from the 1910s to the 1990s includes many financial records and minutes, certificates of membership for various societies, legal documents, correspondence, bills and invoices, applications for positions and internships, as well as issues and manuscripts of Työmies Eteenpäin. There is also a folder on the establishment of a bail fund for Knut Heikkinen, who was an editor of Työmies Eteenpäin and was arrested in 1949 and rearrested in 1950 for past membership in the Communist Party. On 12 Oct. 1953 Heikkinen was arrested for failure to deport himself. He was convicted to a ten year sentence, but the decision was overturned by the Supreme Court in 1958, and Heikkinen was exonerated.
