UE district and local publications files of Presidential Assistant Les Finnegan, 1948-1953 (bulk 1950-1953).

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/122510570

Finnegan created an extensive reference series composed of UE district and local publications received from district officials, field representatives, and local union officers. Publications predating the IUE-UE schism in 1949 were forwarded to Carey and Finnegan by UEMDA members and the pro-Cary faction within UE locals. Items include: local and district newspapers, clippings, bulletins (some corporate), releases, circular letters, strike and organizing leaflets, and scattered reports, minutes, and resolutions generated by district councils and local union executive boards. Supporting memoranda and correspondence within the files provide contextual information regarding the nature of the publications and their intended use by the IUE.
