Pre-Unionization Labor Relations Series Scope and Content Note
This series consists of records of the pre-unionization period, including minutes of the Employee Representation Plan, 1916-1927, which give valuable insights into the workings of the ERP. Grievance files created during the ERP are contained within this series as well. The records are the first grievances formally recognized by the company. One case of note from 1919 involves an African-American employee who protested CF&I’s segregation of the company’s YMCA. Other cases include problems with mine safety, poor working conditions, poor housing conditions, and low wages. The ERP files also include a detailed self-study conducted in 1924 examining the success and failures of the company union.
Other materials include documentation on the continuing labor strife, including information on the 1927-1928 I.W.W. strike, and a small amount of documents on the 1913-1914 coal wars strike. Most documentation of the 1913-1914 period has disappeared, but there is one document of note, a photocopy of a notebook containing “strike notes” maintained by CF&I management. It provides a fascinating insight into the company’s stance on the events of the coal wars. The photocopy was recently donated to the archives by Frank Yaklich, last CEO of CF&I, who made the copy from the original document, which has since disappeared.
The archives also contain amazing documentation of the 1927-1928 Industrial Workers of the World (I.W.W.) strike. Detailed reports from spies called X, XX, and X3 planted within the I.W.W. by CF&I management provide information on the union’s activities. The spies were also tasked to spread misinformation about the union to the public. The files include lists of blacklisted employees — employees who were unfortunate enough to be observed attending union meetings. The communications between the mine managers detail their responses to the unionization efforts. The company also seized union materials from workers, including posters, newspapers, flyers and a songbook.
