Records, 1934-1979.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/478372167

The records of Local 66 contain rich materials on the organization of white collar professional engineers. Of special interest are materials on technological processes in industry, on J. Lawrence Raimist's style of leadership, and on diverse membership needs within specific shops. Documents predominate which evidence Raimist's concern with strengthening of the International, with engineering-related legislation, and with economic contractual issues. The shop files contain specific leaflets of the shop-by-shop campaigns of Local 66, as well as contract, grievance, and negotiation materials. There are also many failed organizing attempts documented in the shop files. Statistical records on changes in membership, organizers' reports, and attendance sheets are contained in financial and membership files. Minutes (1930's-1970's), officers' correspondence, NLRB and NWLB cases, and the Local 66 Bulletin (1934-1979) are also available. Local 66 records are designated 80-W6, 80-W13 and 82-W5.
