Preface
For several decades the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ biennial Directory of National and
International Labor Unions in the United States has served as a practical Director and
a factbook on many aspects of union structure and membership. This Directory repre
sents, as the new title indicates, a continuation of the series as well as an expansion. The
Directory now provides information on a group of relatively recent entrants to the collec
tive bargaining and employee representation field, professional and State employee asso
ciations. Information comparable to that shown for unions is provided for associations in
Part I of the Directory. Statistics on associations’ membership, and their characteristics,
are combined with those for unions, and shown separately in selected tables in Part II.
Part I lists national unions and professional and State employee associations as de
fined by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the names of the major officers as well as the
number of members and locals or affiliates of each organization. Other details are pre
sented in several appendixes, along with indexes of unions, associations, and officers listed
in the Directory. New appendixes include: A listing of unions that include retirees in their
1970 membership count; the number of staff personnel, by occupational categories, em
ployed by unions; an occupational distribution of white-collar members; compulsory re
tirement ages of national and local officers; and union and association membership, by
State and as a proportion of nonagricultural establishments for 1968 and 1970.
Part II includes (1 ) a brief summary o f significant developments in the labor field
between 1969, the date of the previous Directory , and the end of 1971, (2 ) a review of
the structure of the labor movement, and (3 ) the findings of a survey of union and asso
ciation membership and functions performed, including a special section on compulsory
retirement and tenure of union officers.
As in the past, the Bureau will continue to issue, at irregular intervals, listings of
Directory changes occasioned by union mergers, changes in officers and addresses, etc.,
as this information comes to the Bureau’s attention. These supplements will be available
on request.
Listings in the Directory are not intended to confer status or recognition on any orga
nization, nor can they do so, in fact. The basic requirement for inclusion in this Directory
was affiliation with the A F L -C IO or, for unaffiliated unions, the existence of collective
bargaining agreements with different employers in more than one State (except for na
tional unions of Government employees and those in the Federal service meeting the
requirements for exclusive recognition). Professional and State employee associations
were included if they reported that they engaged in collective bargaining or representa
tional activities and claimed membership in more than one State or, if they had members
in only one State, represented employees in two or more cities within the State. Every effort
was made to include all unions and associations meeting these standards.
The information in this Directory was submitted voluntarily by the unions and asso
ciations in response to a questionnair. The Bureau appreciates the high degree of co
operation received, without which this Directory would not have been possible.
This bulletin was prepared by Lucretia M. Dewey, assisted by Sheldon M. Kline of
the Bureau’s Division of Industrial Relations, Office of Wage and Industrial Relations,
under the supervision of Albert A . Belman.

Organized in 1926, the Railway Labor Executives’
Association is composed of the chief executive offi
cers o f 15 labor organizations, 14 of which are affil
iated with the A F L -C IO . Nine of the organizations
have virtually all of their membership in the rail
road industry; the members of the remaining 6 are
principally in other industries. R L E A is not a fed
eration of unions; rather, it functions as a policy
making body on legislation and other matters of
mutual interest to railroad workers.

tions; that is, they issue charters to or maintain a
kind of formal affiliation among organizations in
more than one State. Listed below are the organi
zations known to the Bureau as federations of
unions and associations not affiliated with the A F L CIO. Affiliates of such federations known by the
Bureau to have negotiated agreements with different
employers in more than one State appear in the
national and international union listing.

NATIONAL UNIONS AND EMPLOYEE ASSOCIATIONS
A total of 175 national labor unions and 25
professional and State employee associations, as de
fined, are listed in this section. Listings of major
subordinate or semi-autonomous branches of unions
are indented below the parent union or association.
A ll 114 A F L -C IO national and international
unions are listed, in addition to 61 unions not
affiliated with the A F L -C IO . Unions in the latter
category were included if information indicated that
they had negotiated contracts with different employ
ers in more than one State or, in the case of
Federal Government unions, if they held exclusive
bargaining rights under Executive Order 11491.
Employee associations were included if they (a ) re
ported membership in more than one State or (b )
had members in only one State, but represent em
ployees in two or more major cities within the
State. A F L -C IO organizing councils are listed in
the introductory section (p. 1 5 ). The National
Federation of Independent Unions and the Assem
bly o f Governmental Employees are listed under
Other Federations of National Labor Unions and
Employee Associations on page 18.
Unions and associations were asked to report
their annual average dues-paying membership or
membership in good standing or those carried on
their rolls for 1969 and 1970, and the number of
locals in operation at the end of 1970. If an
organization did not report membership, the space
for membership was left blank. For membership of
nonreporting A F L -C IO affiliates, paid per capita
membership, as reported in the 1971 convention
proceedings, was used and is indicated by an
asterisk.
Assembly of Governmental Employees are identi
fied by a footnote. For the convenience of those
who customarily identify a union by its full title
(e.g., International Association of Machinists and
Aerospace W orkers), a finding index begins on
page 125.
A listing o f com monly used abbreviations o f labor
unions and employee associations is shown on
page 129, and an alphabetical index of the names
of union and association officers and personnel car
ried in the Directory begins on page 135.
Most unions and associations provided the in
formation necessary for an adequate listing. For
some, the information supplied was supplemented
by reference to official union sources such as con
vention proceedings, officers’ reports, or journals.
In an effort to keep information up to date, all
recent changes, other than those related to member
ship and locals, were incorporated in the listings
wherever possible. Key changes in the listings are
reported in periodic supplements issued by the
Bureau, and are available on request.
All changes in the listings o f unions by name,
between the 1969 Directory and the present one
are accounted for in appendix A .

Part II. Membership and Structure of National Labor Unions and Employee
Associations, 1970
SUMMARY
Increasing by 542,000 since 1968, membership
in 208 labor unions and public and professional
employee associations totaled 22.6 million by 1970.
Nearly 500,000 of the gain was attributable to
advances in union membership.
Membership of 185 national unions headquar
tered in the United States reached a record high
o f 20.7 million in 1970, compared with 20.2
million in 1968, the date of the previous biennial
survey. Included in this number for 1970 were
1.470.000 members in areas outside thie United
States, all but 99,000 in Canada. A F L -C IO affil
iates reported nearly 16.0 million members, an
increase of 370,000 since 1968; national unaffil
iated unions reported 4.8 million members, only
slightly above the previous level. The overall gain
of 493,000 made between 1968 and 1970 was
significantly below the increases of recent periods—
1.1 million between 1966 and 1968 and 1.2
million between 1964 and 1966. Dire predictions
regarding union stagnation appear unfounded: In
the last 6 years unions recruited an average of
more than 460,000 annually. Membership in 23
professional and State employee associations totaled
1.9 million in 1970, an increase of 63,000 since
1968.
Gains by unions were recorded in the nonmanu
facturing and government sectors, by 361,000 and
163.000 respectively, while membership in manu
facturing decreased by 45,000. The increase in
nonmanufacturing may have resulted from an in
tensification of organizing efforts, especially within
the service industries. Gains among government
employees were further evidence of a significant
breakthrough. Most of those who have joined
government unions have signed up since 1962, the
year when President John F. Kennedy’s Executive
Order 10988 facilitated unionization of Federal
Government employees. By 1970, 1.4 million em
ployees of the Federal Government were union
members, as were 900,000 State and local gov
ernment employees. A n additional 1.8 million gov
ernment employees are members o f associations,
virtually all at the State and local level. The loss
in manufacturing was attributable to a general de
cline in employment within the sector, especially
in the manufacture of transportation equipment,
where membership declined by 224,000. Substan
tial membership losses were also recorded in ma
chinery, except electrical (1 4 2 ,0 0 0 ) and lumber
and w ood products (9 5 ,0 0 0 ).
The increase in total membership was reflected
in changes in most o f the components of mem
bership studied. The number of women in unions
rose 342,000 over the 2-year period to 4.3 million.
Slightly under 9.2 million union members were in
manufacturing industries, 9.2 million in nonmanu
facturing, and 2.3 million in government service.
White-collar union membership totaling 3.4 million
reached a new peak in 1970, rising by 177,000
since 1968.
As a proportion o f the total labor force, the
upward movement in union membership noted
between 1964 and 1968 has been reversed, de
clining from 23.0 percent in 1968 to 22.6 percent
in 1970, slightly below the 1966 level o f 22.7.
Furthermore, union membership has not kept pace
with the growth o f employment in nonagricultural
establishments, which more closely approximates
the area o f potential organization. The ratio of
membership continued to slip from 33.4 percent
in 1956 to 27.9 percent in 1968 and to 27.4
percent in 1970.
When employee associations were included,
membership was 24.7 percent of total labor force
and 30.1 percent of nonagricultural employment
in 1970. Union and association membership in
1968 equalled 25.2 percent of total labor force
56
Full-time personnel engaged in research activi
ties were reported by 120 unions and in education
work by 116 unions. Officers or staff in charge of
organizing were reported by 154 unions; in charge
o f health, insurance, and pension plans by 129
unions. Persons responsible for legal matters were
named by 156 unions. One hundred and forty
unions reported persons responsible for legislative
activities and 140 named those in charge of public
relations. O f 23 associations, the position of legal
activities was filled by 8, organizing activities by
9, government relations by 9, research an d /or
education director by 7, collective bargaining ac
tivities by 5, employee relations by 2, and social
insurance by 3. In 21 associations, the position
o f executive director was filled.
Publications were issued by 153 unions, 38 State
labor bodies, and 23 professional associations,
usually on a monthly basis. The convention fre
quency reported by 176 o f 185 unions ranged
from less than 1 year to 5 years, most often
every 2 years. Employee associations overwhelm
ingly convene annually. The number of unions
headquartered in Washington, D.C. was 57, a net
loss of two since 1968.
One hundred and seventy-four unions responded
to a question on the year its national president
was first elected, and 147 responded to the same
question for secretary-treasurer. Responses indi
cated that over one-half o f those holding one or
the other office had been elected for the first
time in 1966 or later; one-quarter took office
between 1970 and 1971. Forty-four unions re
ported that retirement was mandatory for national
officers upon reaching ages 65 or 70. Four small
independent unions with membership in the Fed
eral Government limited the number o f terms that
national officers may serve.
and 30.5 percent of nonagricultural employment.
O f the 185 unions covered in this survey, 120
were affiliated with the A F L -C IO and claimed
about the same proportion of the membership in
all unions reporting as in 1968, 77 percent. The
number of local unions chartered by Federation
affiliates was almost 64,000, a slight drop from
1968. National unaffiliated local unions numbered
over 13,000, also declining slightly from 1968.
O f the total, 5,212 local unions were in areas
outside the United States, of which all but 261
were in Canada.
State membership statistics for all unions in the
United States (national and single-firm unions)
compiled by the Bureau for the fourth time, showed
that combined membership of three States in
cluded almost 1 out of 3 members— New York
had 2.6 million, California 2.1 million, and Penn
sylvania 1.6 million. The proportion of nonagri
cultural employment organized in the 31 States
that do not have right-to-work laws was about
one and one-half times the proportion in the 19
States that have such laws— 28 percent compared
with 17 percent.
There were nearly 153,000 agreements, ex
clusive of supplements and welfare and pension
plans, negotiated or in effect in 1970 for national
unions. A total of 14,083 contracts covered mem
bers located outside the United States. The num
ber of workers under these 153,000 agreements
was 21.7 million; this number exceeded union
membership by 1 million, compared with 900,000
in 1968, and 700,000 in 1966. Collective bargain
ing agreements negotiated by professional, State,
and municipal associations was estimated at 11,000 and covered 2.7 million employees; the Na
tional Education Association (N E A ) alone ac
counted for nearly 9,600 agreements in the public
sector, covering 1.0 million workers.
57
DEVELOPMENTS SINCE THE 1969 DIRECTORY
Labor affairs in the period from 1969 to 1972
were highlighted by the election of a significant
number of new union presidents, the formation
and dissolution of alliances between unions, accel
eration of union mergers, and the establishment
of cooperative arrangements between the A F L CIO and some unaffiliated unions on issues of
com mon concern. A significant change in the
content of the Directory resulted from the in
clusion in the listing and statistics of important
professional and public employee associations. The
title was changed accordingly.
Employee associations
Organizations of professional and public em
ployees that engage in collective bargaining and re
lated activities have grown substantially in recent
years. Their members constitute a significant and
growing proportion of all workers covered by formal
and informal agreements. Recognizing the growing
importance of these associations, the Bureau in
cluded in. the 1965 Directory a small number of
associations with exclusive representational rights
in Federal agencies. These organizations were in
cluded in both the listing section of the Directory
and in the union membership statistical series.
In 1969, the Directory was further expanded by a
separate section which listed 14 major professional
and State employee associations. At that time, it
was decided that the 14 organizations did not con
stitute a sufficiently high proportion of the total
believed to be in existence to warrant their in
clusion in the membership statistics.
labor relations. This Directory , therefore, lists 23
professional and State employee associations, by
key word, in part I. Their membership is included
in the membership tables and appendices of this
Directory, when information is available. T o main
tain continuity with its long established series, the
Bureau will maintain separate union membership
statistics.
Admittedly, these 23 associations do not include
all professional and State public employee organi
zations that engage in collective bargaining and
representational activities. Those omitted, however,
are believed to be the smaller organizations. Thus,
any understatement would also be minor. Since
the completion o f this survey, two additional or
ganizations that engage in labor relations functions
for their members have been identified and added
to part I of the Directory; their membership, how
ever, is not included in the statistics. It should
be noted that a number o f associations have philo
sophic objections, and have so informed the Bureau,
to being identified as a union. In recognition of
this, the Bureau used a questionnaire designed to
obtain the organizational structure of associations,
which differs somewhat from that of unions (see
appendix B ). For a listing of the 25 associations
see appendix A.
Turnover of union presidents
Information provided in response to the Bureau’s
1971 questionnaire dispel the com mon belief that
once elected, union presidents remain in office in
definitely. In the 2-year period since 1969, indi
viduals who had not previously held the position
were elected to the office o f president in over
28 percent of the national unions. Forty-nine newly
elected union presidents took office, 28 in A F L C IO affiliates. From secondary sources, the Bu
reau has identified the reasons for 47 o f these
changes. (See table 1.) Reasons for a change in
the president’s office, as reported in the labor
and public press, must be viewed with caution;
Since 1969, associations have increased their
collective bargaining activities and, in many in
stances, have competed successfully with unions
for the right to represent public employees under
recently enacted State labor-relations statutes. Thus,
with an estimated 2 million members, in 1970,
they are a relatively new, but nevertheless a major,
element in the still evolving field of public sector
58
Incumbents were replaced in three contested
elections— in the International Leather Goods,
Plastic and Novelty Workers’ Union, during a
Department of Labor conducted election; in the
National Alliance of Postal and Federal Employees
(In d .); and in the National Association of Broad
cast Employees and Technicians (A F L -C IO ).
One of the most controversial union elections
in years involved the United Mine Workers (In d .).
W. A . (T o n y ) Boyle, president since 1964, was
challenged by the late Joseph A . Yablonski, who
headed U M W ’s legislative activities through its
Labor’s Non-Partisan League. Throughout the cam
paign, Mr. Yablonski had charged Mr. Boyle with
violating federal union election laws by the il
legal use of both union funds and union machinery.
As a result of a suit filed by the Department of
Labor, which investigated Mr. Yablonski’s charges,
the election of Mr. Boyle was overturned by the
courts in May 1972. A new election to be moni
tored by the Department of Labor was ordered.
Earlier, two U M W officials had been convicted of
filing false union reports to conceal the transfer
of union funds to the incumbent’s campaign. In a
suit dating back to December 1964, the Labor
Department brought the U M W to trial for viola
tion of the Landrum-Griffin A ct and the union’s
own constitution, which requires membership elec
tion of regional officials. According to Department
of Labor allegations, regional officials have been
appointed and removed from office by national
headquarters, a practice dating from 1916 in some
regions.
A group of dissident retired members and the
Miners for Democracy accused the U M W of im
properly administering the joint U M W coal industry
pension fund. The union was charged with and
found guilty of placing pension funds, over a 20year period, in cash deposit accounts bearing no
interest, with the union-owned National Bank of
Washington. Both the bank and the union were
found liable for damages that amounted to mil
lions of dollars; the decision, however, is presently
being appealed.
Over the past decade, three-quarters of the
national unions (133 o f 174) 1 have replaced the
individual occupying the office o f president. Turn
over was higher in unions that were not affiliated
with the A F L -C IO ; some 85 percent of these
these reports do, however, provide some basis for
assessing the general reasons for change.

the union.

including ill health, caused 26 incumbents to leave
office. Compulsory retirement, as provided in un
ions’ constitutions, is believed to account for
four presidential retirements. The most widely
publicized resignation was that of James R. Hoff a,
Teamster president since 1957. Tw o weeks prior
to the Teamsters’ 1971 conventions, Hoff a re
linquished national and local leadership positions
thereby paving the way for the unanimous election
of Frank E. Fitzsimmons who had managed the
union’s affairs from 1967 when Hoffa was im
prisoned.
Seven presidents died during their terms of o f
fice. Walter P. Reuther, former CIO president and
president of the Auto Workers (In d.) from 1947,
was killed in a plane crash shortly after being
reelected to his 13th term during the U A W ’s 1970
convention. Leonard W oodcock, director of the
union’s General Motors and Aerospace depart
ments, filled the vacated post.
Turnover can also be attributed to the policy
of some labor organizations of limiting the num
ber of terms national officers may serve. Four of
these— the Aeronautical Production Controlmen’s
Association (In d .), the Federal Plant Quarantine
Inspectors National Association (In d .), the Trade
mark Society, Inc. (In d .), and the National A sso
ciation of Federal Veterinarians (In d .), had con
stitutional provisions of this nature.

185 national unions in 1970 and 174 unions as of Decem
ber 31, 1971.
59
organizations replaced the incumbent between 1961
and 1970, compared to 72 percent of the unions
affiliated with the Federation. By the provisions
of the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure
Act of 1959, unions are required to conduct elec
tions for officers at least each 5 years. In fact,
most union officials face elections at more frequent
intervals. Approximately one-half of all union
presidents stand for reelection at least once every
3 years.
Despite the high proportion of newly elected
presidents over the decade, 16 presidents have
been retained in the top office for 20 years or more
and three have been the chief official since 1937—
Harry Bridges heading the International Longshore
men’s and Warehousemen’s Union (In d .), Joseph
Curran of the National Maritime Union (A F L C IO ), and Sal B. Hoffman of the Upholsterers’
International Union of North America (A F L -
CIO).
Old and new alliances
Demise of the Alliance for Labor Action. Cre
ated in 1969 by the two largest unions in the
United States, the Automobile Workers (In d.)
and the Teamsters (In d .), the Alliance for Labor
Action (A L A ) disbanded at the end of 1971. As
outlined at its May 1969 founding convention, the
major objectives of the organization were to es
tablish community action programs and to mount
an extensive organizing campaign. During its short
lived existence, the A L A joined with the National
Committee for Tax Justice in pressing for tax re
form, presented positions during Congressional
hearings on social security and health care, pro
vided funds to mobilize ghetto communities for selfhelp programs and sought student support for strik
ers. Various estimates of A L A ’s organizing success
have been made, but most reports agree gains were
modest. In Atlanta, Ga., chosen as the first prime
target, between 1,000 to 5,000 new union mem
bers were reported to have been recruited.
Initially, the founding unions were hopeful that
a large number of Federation affiliates would join
the A L A . In fact, the Alliance attracted only
two additional unions, the National Council of
Distributive Workers of America (In d .), which
broke with its parent Retail, Wholesale and D e
partment Store Union (A F L -C I O ), and the In
ternational Chemical Workers Union (A F L -C I O ).
The Chemical Workers Union, which were ex
pelled from the A F L -C IO for dual unionism in
1969, was permitted to reaffiliate with the A F L CIO in May 1971 after relinquishing membership
in the rival organization. Upon readmission to the
A F L -C IO , the International Chemical Workers
Union expressed hope that the Auto Workers
(In d.) and Teamsters (In d.) would soon follow.
The demise of the A L A appeared to stem
directly from the financial difficulties experienced
by the Auto Workers (In d .), and the result of a
long and costly strike against the giant General
Motors Corp. in 1970. Speaking candidly before
the delegates to the Teamsters’ 1971 convention,
Leonard W oodcock, U A W president, publicly ac
knowledged his union’s financial plight and the $25
million loan on the Auto Union’s properties from
the Teamsters. According to Mr. W oodcock, “ the
main cause of our financial problem is in our
operating funds and was created by the building
of a family training facility in northern Michigan
which we call Black Lake.” T o continue operating,
the U A W found it necessary to mortgage its
headquarters, Solidarity House, and the education
center and reduce its staff by 10 percent to ap
proximately 1,000 employees. In July 1971, the
Auto Workers discontinued its monthly $65,000
payment to the A L A , and the Teamsters ended
its $100,000 monthly contribution. The A L A closed
its Washington headquarters early in January 1972
and announced that other activities would be
“ phased out.”
Differences between A F L -C IO and unaffiliated
unions narrowed between 1969 and 1971. Events
leading to the rapprochement included the death
o f Walter Reuther whose ideological approach
often conflicted with that of Mr. M eany’s, a series
o f governmental actions to combat inflation, and the
pressures o f contract negotiations. Both groups
joined in opposing what they termed the uneven
application o f the incomes policy to labor. As an
example of unity, lawyers from the Auto Workers
(In d .), the International Longshoremen’s and
Warehousemen’s Union (In d.) and the United
Mine Workers (In d .), met with representatives of
A F L -C IO affiliates in September 1971 to outline
a course of action opposing the suspension of
negotiated labor contracts. Cooperation was also
evidenced against Pay Board decisions, notably the
refusal of the public and industry members to
sanction a settlement with major
aerospace
companies.
A 15-year mutual assistance pact between the
60
League of Postmasters (In d.) and the National A sso
ciation of Postmasters (In d .), have designated a uni
fication committee to formulate a merger plan.
A proposed constitution for the new organization is
expected to be presented to both conventions in the
fall of 1972, with the expectation of a single post
masters’ organization coming into being by January
1973. In a letter to its membership, some members of
the National Board of the National League of
Postmasters opposed the work o f the joint com
mittee, contending that its authority is only ad
visory and that the final decision must await the
approval of two-thirds of the delegates attending
the convention.
o f national unions have com e to the Bureau’s atAuto Workers (In d.) and the Machinists (A F L C IO ) was reactivated in March 1971 after being
abrogated when the U A W left the Federation.
Used primarily in planning bargaining strategy in
the aerospace industry, the pact was in effect during
the 1971 negotiations. After both unions settled
with five aerospace companies, the Pay Board re
jected the agreements providing for about a 12
percent wage increase the first year. On January
13, 1972, the Board decided that an 8.3 percent
increase the first year, with the remaining increase
payable the second year, was acceptable. The
Auto Workers (In d.) and the Machinists filed a
court suit challenging the authority of the Board
to change the terms of a negotiated agreement.
A merger between the International Brother
hood of Bookbinders (A F L -C IO ) with the Litho
graphers and Photoengravers International Union
(A F L -C I O ), is.expected to be completed by Sep
tember 1972. Similar action between the Inter
national union o f District 50, Allied and Techni
cal Workers o f the United States and Canada
(In d.) and the United Steelworkers o f America
(A F L -C I O ), was halted by a court injunction
just days before the former’s August 1971 con
vention. A modification of the injunction permitted
District 50 to hold a membership referendum vote.
The referendum plan submitted to the court was
awaiting approval as o f January 1972. Strong
opposition to the merger was expressed by the
Building and Construction Trades Department of
the A F L -C IO during its November 1971 con
vention. Delegates adopted a resolution instructing
the Executive Committee to prevent the merger,
charging that District 50 was neither an A F L nor
CIO affiliate at the time the Federation was formed
and had since acquired bargaining rights in the
jurisdictions of affiliated unions.
NEA-SCME coalition. In March 1971, the National
Education Association and the American Federation
o f State, County and Municipal Employees (SC M E )
announced the formation of a coalition designed to
serve primarily as a lobby and political action group,
with the principal goals of seeking the enactment of
favorable public sector collective bargaining statutes
and the creation of a cabinet level post for educa
tion. The Coalition of Public Employee Organiza
tions had the further aid of reducing the com
petition between the two organizations. SCME
represents approximately 50,000 nonteaching school
employees. Reacting to the Alliance and its own
exclusion, the American Federation of Teachers
termed it a “ misalliance” and questioned SCME’s
wisdom in failing to include other public employee
unions in the early stages of formation. Despite this
initial reaction, the A F T president, speaking before
the N E A ’s annual convention in July 1971, proposed
a merger of the two teacher organizations. The pros
pect of merger between the teacher groups, proposed
at various times and forms in the past, has not
progressed beyond general discussions.
A flurry of merger activity surrounded the
West-Coast Longshoremen’s and Warehousemen’s
Union (In d .). As Harry Bridges approaches re
tirement, the union has conducted merger discus
sions both with the East-Coast International Long
shoremen’s Association
(A F L -C IO )
and the
Teamsters (In d .), with whom it has jurisdictional
problems. Forces within the union oppose amalga
mation with either union.
Mergers under consideration. Mergers of national
unions, which had reached a high level in m id-1960’s,
continued in the past 2 years and a number are
currently being discussed.2 Following the pattern of
mergers among postal unions bargaining with the
newly created U.S. Postal Service, the National

Other union developments
A number of mergers, deletions, and additions
tention since publication o f the 1969 Directory. A
total o f 185 unions were in existence in 1970, and
175 are listed in this Directory compared with
183 listed in the previous Directory. Six unions and
one division were added, and 10 unions are not
listed as a result of mergers. Four unions and one
division are not listed for other reasons. As shown
in appendix A , 23 associations were added to
the listing.
Mergers. On July 1, 1971, five unions merged
to form the American Postal Workers Union ( A F L C IO ). The five were the National Association
of Special Delivery Messengers (A F L -C I O ), the
National Association o f Post Office and General
Services Maintenance Employees (A F L -C I O ), the
National Federation of Post Office M otor Vehicle
Employees (A F L -C I O ), the United Federation of
Postal Clerks (A F L -C I O ), and the National
Postal Union (In d .).
On March 18, 1968, the Federal T obacco In
spectors Mutual Association (In d .) merged with
the National Federation o f Federal Employees
(In d .).
On September 1, 1970, the Federated Council
o f the International Association of Railway Em
ployees and the Association o f Railway Trainmen
and Locom otive Firemen (In d .) merged with the
United Transportation Union (A F L -C I O ).
On January 1, 1971, the United Stone and
Allied Products Workers o f America (A F L -C IO )
merged with the United Steelworkers o f America
(A F L -C I O ).
On April 1, 1971, the Association of Engineers
and Scientists (In d .) merged with the American
Federation of Government Employees (A F L -C I O ).
On July 1, 1971, the International Organization
o f Masters, Mates and Pilots (A F L -C IO ) became
the Marine Division of the International Long
shoremen’s Association (A F L -C I O ).
New Listings. Five unions appear in the 1971
Directory for the first time, and one that was
not included in the 1969 bulletin is again included
in the listing. Four are independent unions with
exclusive recognition in the Federal Government,
the National Association o f Aeronautical Examiners
(In d .), Aeronautical Production Controlmen A sso
ciation (In d .), National Customs Service Associa
tion (In d .), and the National Operations Analysis
Association (In d .). As a result o f a merger of
five postal unions the American Postal Workers
Union is listed for the first time. The Trademark
Society, Inc. (In d .), not listed in the 1969
Directory, has again been included.
The Professional A ir Traffic Controllers Or
ganization, which became a division of the Marine
Engineers Beneficial Association (A F L -C I O ), is
listed for the first time.
Four unions and one division were dropped
from the 1971 Directory. The National Associa
tion o f Postmasters o f the United States (In d.)
relinquished its Federal representation rights. The
Overseas Education Association is listed as an
affiliate o f the National Education Association
(In d .). The Air Line Dispatchers Association
(A F L -C IO ) dissolved their organization by con
vention action. The International Alliance o f Bill
Posters, Billers and Distributors o f the United
States and Canada (A F L -C I O ) relinquished its
charter and dissolved the organization. The Na
tional Association o f Post Office Mail Handlers,
Watchmen, Messengers and Group Laders (A F L C IO ), listed as a division of the Laborer’s (A F L C IO ) in the 1969 Directory, has been fully merged
with the parent organization.
62
STRUCTURE OF THE LABOR MOVEMENT
sisting of 33 vice-presidents and the two executive
officers, is the governing body between conven
tions. It must meet at least three times each year,
on call o f the president. Am ong the duties of the
council are proposing and evaluating legislation of
interest to the labor movement and keeping the
Federation free from corrupt or communist influ
ences. T o achieve the latter, the Council has the
right to investigate any affiliate accused o f wrong
doing and, at the completion o f the investigation,
make recommendations or give directions to the
affiliate involved.
A total of 200 organizations— 175 classified
as unions and 25 as professional and State em
ployee associations— are listed in this directory.
A F L -C IO affiliates accounted for 114 of the un
ions, another 61 unions were unaffiliated. Approxi
mately 9 percent o f the combined membership was
represented by associations; members of unions
affiliated with the A F L -C IO represented approxi
mately 77 percent of total union membership.
Structure of the AFL-CIO
Furthermore, by a two-thirds vote, the Executive
Council may suspend a union found guilty on
charges o f corruption or subversion. The Council
also is ‘given the right to (1 ) conduct hearings on
charges that a Council member is guilty of mal
feasance or maladministration, and report to the
convention recommending the appropriate action;
( 2 ) remove from office or refuse to seat, by twothirds vote, any executive officer or council mem
ber found to be a member or follower of a sub
versive organization; (3 ) assist unions in organizing
activities and charter new national and international
unions not in jurisdictional conflict with existing
ones; and ( 4 ) hear appeals in jurisdiction disputes.
The Federation’s constitution, adopted at its
founding convention in 1955, established an organi
zational structure closely resembling that of the
former A F L , but more authority over affiliates
was vested in the Federation. The chief members
of the Federation continued to be the national
and international unions, the trades departments,
the State and local bodies, and the directly affili
ated local unions. (See organization chart.)
The supreme governing body of the A F L -C IO
was the biennial convention. Each union was en
titled to convention representation according to
the membership on which the per capita tax 3 had
been paid.
Between conventions, the executive officers, as
sisted by the Executive Council and the General
Board, direct the affairs of the A F L -C IO . In brief,
the functions of the two top officers and of the
two governing bodies are as follows:
General Board. This body consists o f all 35 mem
bers of the Executive Council and a principal
officer o f each affiliated international and national
union and department. The General Board acts
on matters referred to it by the Executive Officers
or the Executive Council. It meets upon call of
the president. Unlike members o f the Executive
Council, General Board members vote as repre
sentatives o f their unions; voting strength is based
on per capita payments to the Federation.
Executive Officers. The president, as chief execu
tive officer, has authority to interpret the consti
tution between meetings of the Executive Council.
He also directs the staff of the Federation. The
secretary-treasurer is responsible for all financial
matters.
Trade and Industrial Departments. The A F L -C IO
constitution provides for six trade and industrial
departments. An Industrial Union Department
was added to the five departments which were
carried over from the A F L . A department made
Executive Council. Delegates to the 1969 A F L C IO Convention, added six new members to the
Executive Council. The Executive Council, con"10 cents a month.

are under the direct control of the Federation.
Between 1969 and 1971, the Council disbanded
the Match Workers Council and issued a charter

ganizing Committee in addition to continuing the
United Farm Workers Organizing Committee.
up of unions in the food and beverage industry,
chartered in 1961, was disbanded at the 1965
convention. Affiliation with departments is open to
“ all appropriate affiliated national and international
unions.” Affiliates are obligated to pay a depart
ment per capita tax which is determined by
the number of members coming within their
jurisdiction.
State and Central Bodies. Under the A F L -C IO
constitution, the Executive Council is authorized
to establish central bodies upon a city, State or
other regional basis, composed of locals of national
unions, organizing committees, and directly affiliated
local unions. In 1971, there were approximately
750 local central bodies in existence.
Department of Organization. T o further the or
ganizing activities of the A F L -C IO , the consti
tution established a separate Department of Or
ganization to operate under the general direction
of the president. The director of the department
is appointed by the president, subject to approval
of the Executive Council. The department has its
own staff and other resources necessary to carry
out its activities.
Jurisdictional Problems. Former A F L
and CIO
affiliates joined the Federation as fully autonomous
unions and retained the same jurisdictional rights
they held before the merger. These principles are
expressed as follows in article III, section 4 of
the constitution: “ The integrity of each . . . affiliate
of this Federation shall be maintained and pre
served.” The concepts of autonomy and juris
dictional rights find further support in article III,
section 7, which gives the Executive Council the
right to issue charters to new organizations only
if their jurisdiction does not conflict with that of
present affiliates because “ each affiliated national
and international union is entitled to have its auton
omy, integrity, and jurisdiction protected and
preserved.” On the problem of craft versus indus
trial form of organization, the issue primarily re
sponsible for the 1935 split, the new constitution
recognizes that “ both craft and industrial unions
are appropriate, equal, and necessary as methods
of trade union organization . . .” (art. V III, sec.
9 ). The constitution acknowledges the existence
of overlapping jurisdictions which might lead to
conflicts within the Federation. Affiliates are urged
to eliminate such problems “ through the process
of voluntary agreement or voluntary merger in
consultation with the appropriate officials of the
Federation” (art. Ill, sec. 1 0).
Standing Committees and Staff. The constitution
authorizes the president to appoint standing com
mittees to carry on legislative, political, educational,
and other activities. These committees operate
under the direction of the president and are subject'
to the authority of the Executive Council and the
convention. Fifteen standing committees are op
erating at present. Staff departments are estab
lished as needed.
Directly Affiliated Local Unions. At the time of
the Federation’s formation, local trade and federal
labor unions (A F L ) and local industrial unions
(C IO ) had a combined membership of 181,000.
These local unions, having received charters from
both Federations, became directly affiliated local
unions of the A F L -C IO and in 1971 claimed 62,000 members. Under the constitution of the merged
Federation, the Executive Council of the A F L CIO has responsibility for issuing charters and
controls the affairs of these locals. The Council
also is under obligation, at the request of the
locals, to combine them into national unions,
organizing committees, or national councils where
appropriate.
New and enlarged machinery to replace the
procedures previously provided for under the N oRaiding Agreement (art. Ill, sec. 4 ) was adopted
at the 1961 convention and incorporated in a new
section o f the constitution, art. X X I , Settlement of
Internal Disputes, effective as of January 1, 1962.
Under the terms of this article, affiliates are re
quired to respect both the established collective
Organizing Committees. The Executive Council
has the authority to .issue charters to groups not
eligible for membership in national unions and
combine directly affiliated local unions into Or
ganizing Committees. These committees have the
same status as national unions except that they

bargaining and the work relationships of every
other affiliate. In a dispute, the case first goes to
a mediator chosen from a panel of mediators
“ com posed of persons from within the labor m ove
ment” (sec. 8 ). Should the mediator not be able
to settle the dispute within 14 days, it is then re
ferred to an impartial umpire selected from a panel
“ com posed of prominent and respected persons
. . .” (sec. 9 ), for a decision which is to go into
effect 5 days after it has been handed down, unless
an appeal has been filed. An appeal case is first
referred to a subcommittee of the Executive Coun
cil which can either dismiss it or submit it to the
full Executive Council for a final decision. A
variety of sanctions are provided against noncom
plying unions, including loss of the right to invoke
the disputes settlement machinery and possible
suspension. The Federation is further authorized
to publicize the fact that a union has refused to
com ply with a decision and it can extend “ every
appropriate assistance and aid” (sec. 15) to an
aggrieved union.
A panel of impartial umpires and a panel of
officers of international unions handle the media
tion of internal disputes. All members of the Fed
eration’s Executive Council serve on the subcom
mittees which screen appeals and hear complaints
of noncompliance.
According to the Executive Council’s report to
the A F L -C IO convention in 1971, a total of
1,171 cases had been filed under the Internal D is
putes Plan since its inception in 1962 through
the first nine months of 1971. Nearly 60 percent
(6 6 5 ) of the complaints were settled by media
tion, 462 were decided by the impartial umpires.
In addition, the umpires issued factfinding reports
in 14 cases. Of the 30 cases pending as of Sep
tember 30, 1971, 14 were in mediation and 16
were before the impartial umpires. Only 17 de
cisions were rejected by unions found in noncom
pliance with a decision, and in these cases sanctions
were imposed by the Executive Council.
established in other industries. R L E A is not a
Federation of unions; rather, it functions as a
policymaking body on legislative and other matters
of mutual interest to railroad workers.
Congress of Railway Unions
The Congress o f Railway Unions was formed
during December 1969, after five unions withdrew
from the Railway Labor Executives’ Association
over a dispute involving proposed compulsory re
tirement and pension benefit legislation. The six
unions composing the new organization are A F L CIO affiliates. The Congress acts as a policy
making body on legislation and other matters of
interest to railroad workers.
Other Federations. Tw o organizations are listed
which either act as a Federation or have some of
the characteristics of a Federation, such as the issu
ance o f charters to, and the maintenance of, a
formal affiliation among autonomous labor organi
zations. Listed for the first time is the Assembly
of Governmental Employees ( A G E ), founded in
1952 as the National Conference of Independent
Public Employee Organizations. It is made up of
affiliated organizations in 33 States and Puerto
R ico. The A G E is primarily concerned with the
establishment and maintenance of the merit princi
ple, although its affiliates have considerate auton
omy on specific policy issues, including work
stoppages. Twenty A G E affiliates that engage in
collective bargaining or representational activities
are listed individually in part I. The National Fed
eration of Independent Unions has been listed in
previous directories. Unions affiliated with the
NFIU, which had negotiated agreements covering
different employers in more than one State, are
included among the unaffiliated, or independent,
unions discussed below. The Alliance for Labor
Action, listed in the 1969 Directory for the first
time, was dissolved on January 1, 1972.
Railway Labor Executives’ Association
The Railway Labor Executives’ Association is
com posed of the chief executives of 15 labor
organizations, all but one of which is affiliated with
the A F L -C IO . Nine of these organizations have
virtually all of their membership in the railroad
industry, and the remaining six are principally
Unaffiliated or Independent Unions. A total of 65
national or international unions not affiliated with
the A F L -C IO were known to the Bureau in 1970.
All of the unaffiliated unions, other than those
organizing government employees, reported agree
ments covering different employers in more than
66
one State.4 The combined membership of these
unions for 1970 was estimated at 4.8 million. They
included long-established and well-known organiza
tions such as the Brotherhood of Locom otive Engi
neers and the United Mine Workers of America.
Approximately four-fifths of the membership in
unaffiliated national and international unions in
1970 was in unions once affiliated with the A F L CIO and the former CIO, including expelled un
ions such as the International Brotherhood of
Teamsters, the United Electrical Workers (U E ),
the Longshoremen’s and Warehousemen’s Union
and the Distributive Workers, as well as the A uto
mobile Workers.5
Unaffiliated local unions are generally confined
to a single establishment, employer, or locality,
and, therefore, do not meet the Bureau’s interstate
definition of national unions, used in compiling this
and previous directories. A 1967 Bureau survey
showed about 475,000 members in 884 unaffiliated
local unions. According to the Bureau’s findings,
these local independent unions represented approxi
mately 2.3 percent of the total 1970 union mem
bership in the United States.
Professional
and State Employee Associations.
Twenty-five professional and State employee asso
ciations were known to be engaged in collective
bargaining activities and responded to the Bureau’s
questionnaire. Twenty-three associations, with 1.9
million members, are included in the union mem
bership series for the first time. A discussion of this
inclusion appears in the Developments section,
p. 58.
1The requirem ent pertaining to collective bargaining
agreements was waived fo r organizations which organized
government workers. Since the issuance of Executive
Orders 10988 and 11491, the Bureau has attempted to
include those Federal government unions holding exclusive
bargaining rights. Organizations representing postal em
ployees, even though not holding exclusive bargaining
rights as defined under the Postal Reform Act, have been
included. Some unaffiliated unions, interstate in scope, may
have been om itted because adequate inform ation as to
their existence or scope was not available.
Also included in this count is the Internatio nal Chem ical
W orkers U nion which reaffiliated w ith the A F L - C IO
in M ay 1971.
67
UNION AND ASSOCIATION MEMBERSHIP
The various statistical and other information in
this 1971 Directory, as in earlier editions, was ob
tained by questionnaire mailed to all A F L -C IO
affiliates and to all unaffiliated unions known to
be interstate in scope. In addition, questionnaires
were mailed to those professional and State public
employee associations listed separately in the 1969
Directory and others believed to be engaged in
collective bargaining or representational activities.6
Unions were asked to report the average num
ber o f dues-paying members for 1969 and 1970,
including those members located in areas outside
the United States. If this information was not avail
able, unions were requested to indicate the num
ber o f members in good standing or those carried
on their rolls for each year. Other questionnaire
items pertained to women members, white-collar
members, members employed in major industry
groups, and the number or percentage of member
ship in each of the 50 States.
ments, and the number o f members covered by the
agreements. Other questions were designed to
obtain information on the occupational composition
o f the membership, the distribution of members in
the private and public sectors, the percentage of
women members and a distribution o f membership
by State.
A number o f unions and associations failed to
respond to one or more of the questionnaire items
and in these cases, where possible, the Bureau of
Labor Statistics prepared estimates derived from
other sources, notably union or association pe
riodicals, convention proceedings, financial state
ments, collective bargaining agreements on file in
the Bureau, and previous directory responses. In
addition, some unions supplied estimates primarily
because the records at their international head
quarters could not provide the data sought. D if
ferent concepts among unions as to what con
stitutes membership adds an inherent qualification
to membership figures.7
The employee association questionnaire differed
In the 1963 Directory, the Bureau explored dues
somewhat from that sent to unions. It requested
payments as a criterion for computing membership

1 National and international labor unions and employee associations
were asked to rep ort th e ir average dues-paying m em bership or, if not
available, m em bership in good standing or carried on th e ir rolls for
1970. One hundred and seventy-tw o labor unions reported a total of
20,178,798 members and the Bureau estim ated on the basis of other
inform ation that m em bership of the 13 unions which did not report
was 510,737. Total reported m em bership of 23 associations was 1,868,432.
Members of local unions d ire ctly a ffiliated w ith the AFL— CIO were not
accounted fo r in the estim ates. Also excluded are members of un-
a ffiliated unions not interstate in scope. Membership figures fo r areas
outside of the United States were com piled p rim a rily from union reports

By affiliation, 1970 union membership figures
were distributed as follows: A F L -C IO approxi

national unions, about 4,773,000. For 1969, a year
also covered by this survey, A F L -C IO affiliates

membership of 23 professional and State associa

members outside the United States (See table 2 ).
The addition of 62,000 members in local unions
directly affiliated with the A F L -C IO raised the total
for 1970 to 20,752,000, the figure consistent with
the Bureau’s historical series for total union mem

1,805,227. An additional 235,000 were members
of municipal associations. Between 1968 and 1970,
unions and associations increased their membership

almost one-half million between 1968 and 1970,
was the lowest increase since the 1962-64 period.

Table 5. Total membership in national unions and

Membership in the United States. In 1969 and 1970,
membership of national and international unions and
employee associations with headquarters in the
United States, and local unions directly affiliated
with the A F L -C IO includes members outside the
United States. As previously noted, these member
ship data exclude the approximately 475,000 mem
bers of unaffiliated unions which confine their ac
tivities to a single employer or to a single locality.
The Bureau used this estimate for single-firm and
local unaffiliated unions to compute the 1970 total
membership in the United States. A contrast is
shown in table 5.

The preceding table does not include certain clas
sifications of workers with a direct attachment to
the labor movement in 1970. Past reports received
by the Bureau indicate that many unions include
only their full dues-paying members in their mem
bership totals, and exclude all those who are, in
whole or in part, dues-exempt (unemployed, strikers,
retirees, those in the Armed Forces, etc.). Largely
because of recordkeeping problems at national head
quarters, accurate figures on the number so ex
cluded are difficult to obtain. Estimates furnished
by unions able to respond to an inquiry o f this
type in the past yielded totals as high as 930,000.
On the other hand, information obtained from the
1971 questionnaire regarding the inclusion o f re
tirees in the membership count showed that 30
unions included 291,000 retirees in their member
ship.12 In addition, 11 unions reported that they
included retirees in their membership, but were
not able to provide figures.

In Puerto R ico, a decline of 5,600 in the mem
bership of the Meat Cutters was more than offset
by gains by the Teachers, State and County em
ployees, and the Teamsters (In d .).
The modest gains in Canada were made by unions
representing members in various manufacturing and
nonmanufacturing industries, particularly in con
tract construction, trade, and food service industries.
Minor losses were noted in many industries, also.

108 U.S. unions remained relatively unchanged, 27

cent in 1970.15 Over the decade, 1960-70, the
number of employees in nonfarm establishments
rose by 30.3 percent, while union membership in
creased by only 13.7 percent. (See table 6.)
Membership changes during the 1968-70 period
varied among unions but slightly more gained (7 5 )
than lost members ( 6 6 ). (See table 7 .) A significant
proportion, 25 of the 166 unions for which com
parable data are available, reported minor or no
changes in membership. This represents a departure
from the 1966-68 experience when 91 unions gained
and 53 lost members and accounts for the smaller
overall gains made during the past 2 years. Approxi
mately the same number of uinons gained (3 0 )
as lost (2 6 ) 10 percent or more of their membership
between 1968 and 1970. O f these, 16 unions gained
20 percent or more members; however, the majority
were small independent unions.
Reports from 168 unions for the 1969-70 period
showed that 106, or over 63 percent, gained or lost
less than 5 percent of their members. Only 25
unions gained or lost 10 percent or more members.
Between 1951 and 1970, all but 21 out of 135
unions experienced gains or losses of 10 percent or
more. Those unions experiencing substantial in
creases over the 19 years were those with members
in government, service, trade, and transportation
(airline and trucking) while those with declines
of membership included unions in railroad trans
portation, textile, shoes, and furniture.
While it is difficult to assess the many factors con
tributing to a union’s gain or loss of members,
losses frequently can be attributed to changing em
ployment patterns, such as the increased number
of white-collar, service and women workers, and
declining industries, notably the railroads, textile
and shoe manufacturers. Increases in individual un
ions may be attributable to the merger of organiza
tions, successful organizing campaigns, and increased
employment in plants covered by union shop
agreements.
As shown in appendix E, of the 51 unions claim
ing 100,000 or more members at any time during the
1958 to 1970 report period, the greatest member
ship gains were made by unions organizing employ
ees in government, service, and trade. The Team
ster’s (In d.) with membership in a wide range of
industries, but largely in trucking, showed the largest
absolute gain (4 1 1 ,0 0 0 ). Declines were registered
by manufacturing, construction, and railroad unions.
Eight unions have consistently reported membership
gains during this 12-year period— the Electrical
Workers (IB E W ); Operating Engineers; Retail
Clerks; Service Employees; State, County and
Municipal Employees; Teachers; Government Em
ployees (A F G E ); and the Letter Carriers.

capita showed fewer than 100,000 members. Three
unions were included in this group for the first time:
The United Transportation Union (A F L -C I O ), the
product of a 4-union merger; the Bakery Workers
which resulted from the merger of the American
Bakery and Confectionery Workers (A F L -C IO )
and the Bakery and Confectionery Workers (In d .).
The National Federation of Federal Employees
(In d.) had increased its membership sufficiently since
1968 to be added to the list and the Transport
Workers, which had been deleted from the 1968
list, has again been included after reporting over
100,000 members.
1962 through 1966, the number of unions with
400,000 members or more increased by one, to 11,
in 1968. By 1970, three unions had recruited a
sufficient number of new members to raise their
totals above 400,000. These unions— State, County
and Municipal Employees; Service Employees; and
Communications Workers— together with the 11
other unions that had been in this size class, rep
resented 53.2 percent of union membership in 1970.
(See table 8.) In 1968, the 11 unions in this size
class covered 47 percent of total membership com
pared to 45 percent in 1966, and 43 percenet in
1964 and 1962. At the other extreme, 88 unions
with less than 25,000 members, almost one-half
of all unions, represented only 2.6 percent of all
members. In 1968, the same number of unions
represented 2.8 percent of total membership. Thus,
the trend toward the concentration of union mem
bership in fewer and larger unions, noted in earlier
directories, continued into 1970.

low proportion of membership. In this group, 16
associations with 25,000 or fewer members ac
counted for 7 percent of total membership.
The most dramatic increases over the decade
have been experienced by government sector unions.
In 1960, for example, three government unions—
the irefighters, Government Employees (A F G E ),
and Teachers— each reported fewer then 100,000
members. Ten years later they have recruited more
than enough members to be added to the 100,000
or over category and rank 37th, 17th, and 27th,
respectively, out of 48 unions. State, County, and
Municipal Employees with 210,000 members in
1960 ranked 21st, and in 1970 with 444,000 mem
bers moved to 11th place. Although remaining in
the 100,000 size class, several unions moved down
the scale both in membership and ranking. Among
these were the Maintenance of Way, Railway Clerks,
Machinists, Textile Workers, and Bricklayers.
Significant changes occurred in the size ranking
of the top 11 unions since 1968— the ranking of
the Machinists and Laborers was lowered, although
the Laborers experienced a membership gain. The
Ladies’ Garment Workers slipped to 12th place,
while the Retail Clerks became the seventh largest
union, and State, County, and Municipal Employees
moved from 14th to 11th place.
There is a considerably greater concentration of
members among associations than unions. Since most
of the employee associations limited their rolls to
employees of a State, there is a built-in limit on
size, a factor that does not exist in the case of
unions that recruit regardless of location. One pro
fessional organization with members in all States,
the National Education Association, reported 1.1
million members, almost 60 percent of the total.
As was true in the union sector, a relatively large
proportion of small organizations accounted for a

proportion women constituted of the labor force
has risen while the proportion organized has re
mained stable at about 1 out of 7. In 1970, when
women in associations were added to those in unions,
the ratio increased to 1 out of 6. The labor force
ratio for male union members, 3 out of 10, had
remained stable between 1968 and 1970.U!
Women were at least half of the membership of
26 unions, a loss of four unions since 1968. These
unions with women as a majority of their members
accounted for 37 percent of all women members in
1970, compared with 42 percent in 1968. No wom

combined membership of close to 2.2 million. (See

precise and reporting organizations may differ in
their interpretation of this term. For this reason,
and because many unions do not maintain sep
arate membership records for different occupational
groups, it can be assumed that the figures submitted
to the Bureau are often rough estimates. Indicative
of the problems in this area are reports from unions
which claimed a considerably higher number of whitecollar members than their reported increase in mem
bership could account for or which had substantially
revised downward the percentage of white-collar
members on their rolls. Such measurement problems,
however, are, to some extent, offset by the fact that
65 percent o f all white-collar members were in 49
unions, which were at least 70 percent white-collar.
Because of the overwhelmingly white-collar character
of these organizations, classification problems should
be minor. (See table 13.)
The data cited— namely, that 65 percent of all
white-collar members were in 49 unions, each claim
ing to be at least 70 percent white-collar— was the
same as in 1968. As noted in the 1969 Directory,
there appeared to be a lessening in the relative de
gree of concentration of white-collar workers. H ow
ever, over the past 2-year period, the trend appears
to have stabilized. The previous survey pointed out
that, in 1964, 40 unions represented 75 percent of
all white-collar workers (48 unions in 1966), again
in organizations where white-collar workers were
70 percent of all union members. In 1962, 34 unions
represented 67 percent of all white-collar members

4.9 million in 1970. (See table 12.) Approximately
177,000 white-collar members were added to union
ranks in the 2-year period, a gain that was far be
low the 366,000 increase experienced between 1966
and 1968. Reports from 147 unions and estimates
for 38 showed that total union white-collar member
ship in 1970 was 3.4 million; an increase of 0.5
percentage point in the ratio of white collar workers
to total union membership. (See table 12.)
A much higher proportion (84 percent) of pro
fessional and public employee members, than of un
ions (16 percent), were employed in white-collar
occupations. The 1.6 million white-collar association
members raised the combined total to almost 5
million, or slightly over one-fifth of all members.
The figure for unions and associations should be
used with caution. The term “ white-collar” is not

White-collar members of local unions directly affiliated with the A F L CI0 are not included in these estimates. Estimates were made for 6
associations with a total of white-collar membership of 27,099.
1 One hundred and forty-seven unions reported 2,617,766 white-collar
members. Thirty-eight unions did not report the number of such mem
bers. It was estimated that 27 of these had approximately 735,462
white-collar members, 10 had none and no estimate was available for 1.
In terms of affiliation, it is estimated that white-collar members were
distributed as follows: A F L-C I0 , 82.5 percent; unaffiliated, 17.5 percent.

In 1970, as in 1968, the Bureau requested data
on the occupational composition of white-collar
members. As in 1968, not all unions reporting
white-collar members provided this distribution, nor
could the Bureau estimate the white-collar occupa
tions of the membership of all 38 unions for which
it had estimated general white-collar membership.
The membership for which occupational composition
was reported totaled 3,022,000, or 90 percent of all
union white-collar membership. Many of the unions
reported membership in more than one category.
(See appendix G, Unions by white-collar occupa
tional distribution.) Reports and estimates for 23
associations provided an occupational distribution
for all 1,564,000 white-collar association members.
and, in 1960, 32 unions. Thus, 1970 data indicated
that the dispersion of white-collar members through
the labor movement may be temporarily slowing.
Significant gains of white-collar members were
reported in communications, service, government;
and transportation. Approximately 2 million, or 60
percent of all white-collar members, were in non
manufacturing industries, 958,000 or 29 percent in
government service and 384,000 or about 11 percent
in manufacturing industries. The manufacturing sec
tor experienced a 4,000 member loss, while nonman
ufacturing industries gained 121,000, and govern
ment 60,000.
The highest ratio of white-collar union workers
(41 percent) was in Government; with association
members the ratio had risen to 62 percent. Whitecollar membership was much lower in nonmanufac
turing (22 percent), and manufacturing (4 percent).
A Bureau study of 884 unaffiliated local and
single-employer unions yielded an additional 154,800 white-collar union members, or 32.6 percent of
the 474,600 members of such organizations. Whitecollar union membership in the United States can
be obtained by deducting from 3,353,000 an esti
mated 238,000 members in foreign countries and
by adding 155,000 white-collar members from un
affiliated local and single-employer unions, and
1,564,000 members of State and professional asso
ciations, for a total of 4,834,000.
Table 14.
Although occupational identification was avail
able for a higher proportion of white-collar members
in 1970, 90 percent compared with 78 percent in
1968, the findings in table 14 can not be viewed as
a precise reflection of the composition of organized
white-collar members. Ninety-two unions and asso
ciations reported a total of 2,568,000 professional
or technical members. Thirty-four unions accounted
for 67 percent of this total and a large proportion
of this group was comprised of unions exclusively
representing professional employees, such as the
Actors, A ir Line Pilots, Musicians, and Teachers.
Over 90 percent (1 ,4 49 ,0 00 ) of the white-collar
membership of the 23 associations were reported to

the National Education Association alone represented
1.1 million.
Reports and estimates for 68 unions and asso
ciations showed 1,299,000 members in clerical posi
tions. Forty-nine unions represented 1.2 million and
seven of these accounted for 55 percent of the total.
These seven unions were the Office and Professional
Employees, Railway Clerks, the Telephone Unions
(In d .), and four government unions. Nineteen asso
ciations contributed 115,000 clerical members to the
total.
Members in sales occupations numbered 719,000
and were represented by 17 unions, none by asso
ciations. The Retail Clerks accounted for 82 per
cent of the total.
Industrial Distribution of Membership,17 Only mem
bership in the public sector has consistently gained
both in number and as a percentage of total mem
bership since the Bureau first requested an industrial
distribution of membership in 1956. Primarily as a
result of this increase, private sector membership
has been declining as a percentage o f the total, al
though a significant absolute increase has taken
place in nonmanufacturing since 1956. (See table
15.)

Although information on the long-term member
ship trends of broad industry groups is available,
data for 2-digit Standard Industrial Classification
(SIC ) has been available only since 1968. Since
that time, membership in manufacturing industries
declined slightly, by 45,000, with substantial losses
registered in transportation equipment (2 2 4 ,0 0 0 ),
17 Data by industry include members outside the United
States, retired workers, etc.
79
machinery, except electrical (1 4 2 ,0 0 0 ), and lumber
products (9 5 ,0 0 0 ). Despite the overall decline, gains
were made in eight manufacturing industries, with
the largest in fabricated metal products (3 7 5 ,0 0 0 ),
and furniture (5 7 ,0 0 0 ). (See table 16.)
Union membership in nonmanufacturing indus
tries increased by 361,000 during the 2-year period.
All but three nonmanufacturing industries— trans
portation, utilities, and agriculture and fishing—
reported gains, particularly in trade, amounting to
157,000 and in service to 194,000.
Union and association government membership
totaled 4.1 million in 1970. In that sector, unions
increased by 163,000 to 2.3 million with by far the
largest proportion, 144,000, in State and local gov
ernment. Twenty-three professional and State em
ployee associations added 1,762,000 members to the
government total; all but 40,000 of the gain o c
curred in State and local government. Excluding
manufacturing, the five industrial divisions with the
largest number of members— government with 4.1
million, contract construction 2.6 million, trans
portation 2.4 million, trade 1.5 million, and service
1.4 million— represented over half, or 53 percent,
of all 22.6 million members. Four manufacturing
categories— electrical
machinery,
transportation
equipment, fabricated metal products, and food
products— with a combined membership of approxi
mately 4 million, represent an additional 18 percent.
Before 1968, A F L -C IO membership in manufac
turing industries exceeded that in nonmanufacturing
but in this and the last survey the position has been
reversed due to the change in affiliation of the
United Automobile Workers (In d .), which repre
sents 71 percent of all members in transportation
equipment. In 1970, A F L -C IO manufacturing mem
bership slipped further, declining by 88,000. This
decrease was attributable to the expulsion of the
Chemical Workers from the Federation in 1969, and
their absence during 1970. The consequence of this
action is reflected in the predominance of unaffil
iated membership over A F L -C IO affiliates in the
chemicals and allied products industry. Unaffiliated
membership also ranked ahead of the A F L -C IO in
mining, agriculture and fishing, and instruments, in
addition to transportation equipment and chemicals.
The Bureau has long been aware o f the lack of
data on the extent of union organization by industry.
Industry membership, as reported by unions, or esti
mated by the Bureau, cannot be applied to industry
employment totals with precision because it includes
members in areas outside the United States, and,

1 Number of members computed by applying reported percentage
figures to total membership, including membership outside the United
States.
2 Members of 23 professional and State employee associations have
been included in the totals. These columns are nonadditive; many
unions have membership in more than one industrial classification.
:5142 unions reported an estimated distribution by industry; for 43
unions the Bureau estimated industrial composition. For 2 associations
no industrial estimates were available, however, those members not in
government were believed to be in service industries.
' Less than 0.05 percent.
NOTE: Because of rounding, sums of individual items may not equal
totals.
in many cases, members not currently in the labor
force. Also, union membership totals are not neces
sarily identical with collective bargaining coverage.
In 1968 and 1970, the Bureau, by making rough
adjustments for these factors, ranked in broad per
centage categories 35 industries and industrial divi
sions by the degree of union organization, as follow s:18
18
Before the 1969 D irectory, industries and industrial
divisions were ranked in order of degree of union organiza
tion and no percentage grouping was provided in both the
1965 and 1967 directories. P rio r to 1965, no estimate of
the degree of union organization was presented. Beginning
w ith the 1969 D irectory, industrial distribution was obtained
on a 2-digit Standard Ind ustrial Classification basis (S IC ).
80
of these industries— services for example— employ
large numbers of workers and the percentage of
penetration therefore is low. In some of the tradi
tionally unorganized industries, many of the deter
rents to unionization remain. (See appendix H for
a breakdown of unions and asociations reporting
membership in the various industrial classifications.)
Under these circumstances, major shifts among the
categories that indicate the degree of organization
are unlikely in the short run. In fact, there were few
shifts between 1968 and 1970. A number of the
shifts that did occur represent changes from 1968
in the reports provided by unions and these seem to
represent changes in estimates prepared by reporting
officials rather than actual changes in membership
composition. Over the 2-year period the electrical
machinery industry moved from the 50 to 75
percent group; fabricated metals jumped two size
groups and joined those industries in which at least
three-quarters o f the workers are organized. A move
in the opposite direction lowered petroleum to the
50 to 75 percent group. It was estimated that
approximately three-fifths of manufacturing employ
ment was organized, compared to one-quarter of
nonmanufacturing and slightly less than one-fifth of
government employment. With the addition of mem
bers of associations, it is estimated that approxi
mately one-third of all government employees are
members of unions; at the State and local levels, the
proportion is somewhat lower, one-quarter.
Table 17 highlights the level of multi-industry
dispersion of most national and international unions.
O f the 185 unions, approximately 70 percent, or
130, have 80 percent or more of their members
in a single industry. If government unions are ex
cluded from this group, this number drops to 100
unions. The highest degree of multi-industrial dis
persion was found in manufacturing. In fabricated
metal products, for example, one union of 33, repre
senting only 9,000 out of 918,000 workers, reported
80 to 100 percent of its members were in the in
dustry. The remaining members in the industry
(90 9,0 0 0) were distributed among 32 unions, and
of these 23 each had less than 20 percent of their
members in fabricated metals. In chemicals, 23 out
of 26 unions had less than 20 percent of their mem
bers in that industry. In the nonmanufacturing in
dustry, electric and gas utilities, only 2 of 17 unions
had a majority of their members in that industry.
Am ong unions reporting members in agriculture and
fishing, a majority of members were in other
industries.

Continued efforts to expand their representation
of employees is a basic function and survival re
quirement of unions. At this time, a large proportion
o f the major establishments in heavily organized
industries are already operating under contracts with
unions. Further organization may significantly in
crease the number of employers with whom a union
negotiates but add little to the proportion of the
workforce that is represented. These additions may
be offset by representation losses.
In some of the less highly organized industries,
particularly in nonmanufacturing, unions have made
remarkable inroads in recent years. However, some

fornia (2.1 m illion), and Pennsylvania (1.6 million).
These three States, plus Illinois, Ohio, and Michi
gan, had more than half o f all union members in the
United States. Membership in professional, State
and municipal associations are similarly concentrated
in these six States and accounted for one-half the
Of the 100 unions with members in manufac
turing, 63 had between 80 and 100 percent of their
members in various manufacturing industries and
accounted for 67 percent of the membership in
this sector. Of the 104 unions with members in
various nonmanufacturing industries 64, with 64
percent of the membership, were predominantly
(8 0 -1 0 0 percent) in nonmanufacturing. One-half
of all unions with members in the public sector were
exclusively in government; these represented 83
percent of the membership in this sector.
2.1 million members.
The top ranking States in terms of labor union
membership are not necessarily those in which unions
have made their greatest penetration among non
farm employees. Thus, two of the three States that
had 40 percent or more of their nonagricultural em
ployment in unions in 1970, West Virginia and
Washington, ranked twenty-second and fourteenth,
respectively, in terms of number of members. Michi
gan, the third State, with 40 percent of nonagri
cultural employment as union members, ranked
sixth. New York, California, and Pennsylvania stood
ninth, thirteenth and fourth in the degree of or
ganization among nonfarm workers.
Membership by State. Distributions of union mem
bership by State have been published in the Directory
since 1965. In this fourth survey, as in previous
surveys, approximately 32 percent of the unions
were unable to provide State data. Reports received
from 125 unions, however, did cover about 74
percent of the United States membership in national
unions. The Bureau was able to develop estimates
for the remaining 60 unions.19 State distribution
for single-firm and local unaffiliated unions were
available from the Bureau’s 1967 study.20 Responses
from 23 professional and public employee associa
tions enabled the Bureau to include a State distri
bution for their membership. Unpublished data from
the 1969 municipal employee association survey
also provided information by State. From this study,
approximately 30,000 members of professional asso
ciations were excluded to eliminate duplication.21
With the addition of association members to the
count, a total of five States— West Virginia, Wash
ington, Michigan, New York, and Pennsylvania—
had 40 percent or more of their nonagricultural work
ers in various labor organizations.
Since 1968, a total of 19 changes took place in
the ranking o f States by union membership, with the
ranking of 10 increasing and of 9 decreasing. O f
those with declining rank, two— Idaho and Oregon—
experienced membership increases. Michigan and
Ohio showed the largest gains in union members,
and Washington registered the largest decline, 20,000.
Data for 1968 were revised to account for re
visions in employment statistics for nonagricultural
establishments and appear in table 18. Table 19
shows membership by State for 1970 in various
organizations: A F L -C IO affiliates, including directly
affiliated locals (14.7 m illion), national unaffiliated
unions (4.5 m illion), local unaffiliated organizations
(47 5 ,0 0 0 ) professional and State associations (1.9
million) and municipal employee associations (235,0 0 0 ). Union and association membership by State
for 1968 and 1970 appears in appendix I.
As stated in an earlier section, union membership
as a proportion of total employment in nonagri
cultural establishments has declined despite growth
in union rolls. In the United States, the overall
percent has dropped from 29.5 percent in 1964,
28.6 in 1966, 28.4 in 1968, to 27.9 in 1970. Even
with the addition of employee association member
ship, the proportion organized has declined from
31.4 percent in 1968 to 30.9 in 1970. O f the 19
with right-to-work laws, only one State, Nevada,
exceeded the 1970 national average of 27.9 per
cent for unions or 30.9 percent when associations
are added. Thirteen o f the 19 right-to-work States
gained an aggregate o f 207,000 union members, five
lost a total o f 19,000 members, and the total of
one was unchanged.
As in previous surveys, union membership was
concentrated in the few States having the largest
number of workers in nonagricultural establishments.
Three States together had almost 1 out of 3 members
in 1970— New Y ork (2.6 million members), Cali
19 See page 68.

National unaffiliated unions made their strongest
showing, compared with A F L -C IO membership, in
Michigan because of the presence of the Automobile

bership statistics by State, 1968 and 1970, appear in

Workers, in Hawaii where the Longshoremen’s and
Warehousemen’s Union (In d.) is strong, and in
West Virginia, because of the United Mine Workers
(In d .). In 21 States, A F L -C IO unions covered at
least 80 percent of members in national unions,
compared with 36 States in 1966, because the
Automobile Workers (In d.) withdrew from the
Federation.

UNION AND ASSOCIATION ACTIVITIES
from 77,183 in 1968 to 76,792 in 1970. A F L -C IO
affiliates reported a decline of 200 locals; unaffiliated
unions reported 191 fewer locals. One hundred
and sixty-six of the 391 locals that ceased operations
were outside of the United States. As shown in
table 20, A F L -C IO affiliates claimed approximately
five out of every six locals in 1970.
M ore than one-half of all the locals were affil
iated, 18 unions, of which each had 1,000 locals
or more. A t the opposite extreme, 132 of the 185
national unions, each having fewer than 400 locals,
had approximately 16 percent of the total number
of locals. Eighty-six unions had fewer than 100
locals each, including 14 in which all members were
directly affiliated with the national organization.
Those that did not charter locals were primarily in
the entertainment industry and public sector unions
whose activities were confined to a single geo
graphic area.
Several aspects of union administration and acactivities are described in this section. A m ong them
are the number of local unions, number of collective
bargaining agreements and their worker coverage,
term of office for union presidents and secretarytreasurers, compulsory retirement age of officers,
frequency of conventions, professional staff, union
publications, and headquarters locations. Most of the
data summarized in this section also appear sep
arately for each union or association, where infor
mation was available, in the listing section beginning
on page 1. Information on collective bargaining
agreements, agreement coverage, total union staff,
length in office for presidents and secretarytreasureres, and compulsory retirement, is not in
cluded in the listing.
Number of locals
The number of local unions chartered by na
tional and international unions decreased slightly

reported a large number o f locals; however, o f the

about 160,000 agreements probably would be rea
sonable at this time. This estimated total includes
1,625 contracts for single-plant and single-locality
unions.23
The concentration of agreements among a small
number o f unions, a characteristic noted in previous
surveys, continued in 1970. Since 1964, six unions
having 5,000 agreements or more have claimed,
from 41 percent in 1964, 44 percent in 1966, and
42 percent in 1970, of all collective bargaining agree
ments. These six unions are the Teamsters (In d .),
Machinists, Electrical (IB E W ), Service Employees,
Theatrical Stage, and Printing Pressmen.
As in 1968, in 1970 also 19 A F L -C IO affiliates
and three unaffiliated unions, each negotiating at
least 2,000 agreements, were signatory to over 70
percent of all agreements. At the other extreme,
83 unions or 47 percent of all national unions,
had a total of 1,882 agreements.24
A total of 14,083 contracts were negotiated for
members located outside the United States, or 1,645
more than in 1968. O f the 1970 total, A F L -C IO
affiliates were signatory to about 60 percent or 8,184.
The number of workers covered by collective bar
gaining agreements, as reported by 108 unions and
estimated by the Bureau for 75 unions (no estimates
were made for two unions) was 21.7 million, ex-
five unions that had 2,000 locals or more each,
three postal unions, having a combined membership
of 418,000, had 15,021 locals.
A total of 5,212 local unions in areas outside of
the United States were reported by national unions.
All but 261 were in Canada, as shown in appendix D.
Collective bargaining agreements
Reports from 138 unions and estimates for 40
yielded a count of 152,831 agreements, exclusive of
supplements, and welfare and pension plans in effect
during 1970.22 (See table 2 1 .) This represents a
gain of approximately 4,000 over the 2-year period.
The number of agreements negotiated by labor
unions in the public service— Federal, State, and
municipal— was estimated at about 6,000. Federal
government unions that did not negotiate agree
ments increased from 2 to 5. Collective bargaining
agreements negotiated by professional, State, and
municipal associations, estimated at approximately
11,000, raised the number of agreements in the pub
lic sector to about 17,000. The National Education
Association accounted for 87 percent of this total.
Estimates were not made for seven unions that
had membership of 968,000, because they failed to
respond to the questionnaire. Thus, it is impossible to
calculate the total number of agreements in 1970.
The inclusion of State and municipal agreements had
necessitated a new estimate of the total number
of contracts in the United States. A n estimate of
See text on page 71.
21 Reports fo r 114 unions and estimates fo r 58 showed
that agreements were negotiated w ith 176,000 employers
in the United States. N o estimates were made fo r 13 unions
w ith 3.9 m illio n members.
2a The number of union collective bargaining agreements
in the United States was 139,000 in 1970.

Union conventions
ceeding union membership by 1 million. This dif
ference coincides with the findings since 1966 of
agreement coverage exceeding union membership.
Before 1966, however, union membership and agree
ment coverage were virtually identical. The widen
ing difference between coverage and membership
may be attributed to more unions, especially govern
ment unions, negotiating contract for the first time,
or the increasing worker coverage under existing
agreements. The 21.7 million, however, does not in
clude the 2.7 million members of associations who
are represented in various forms of collective bargain
ing activities, or the estimated 564,000 under agree
ments negotiated by single-firm local unions, both
unaffiliated and directly affiliated. When these groups
are added, total collective bargaining coverage is
estimated to be approximately 25 million.25
As noted in previous surveys, the largest number
of unions (6 1 ) hold biennial conventions. Twentytwo unions meet every 5 years, thus fulfilling the
minimum requirements of the Labor-Management
Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959. O f these, 10
unions had 25,000 or fewer members, although some
of the largest unions, the Teamsters (In d .), Labor
ers, Hotel and Restaurant, and Plumbers were also
in this group. The six unions which reported they
do not hold conventions were small organizations
confining their activities to a single area or specific
occupation. As shown in table 22, of the 23 em
ployee associations, 17 hold annual conventions, and
all meet at least every 2 years.
Union staff
2r*F o r the U nited States, 20.2 m illio n workers were
covered by the terms of agreements negotiated by national
labor unions compared w ith 19.2 m illio n union members.
Assuming that agreement coverage does not exceed union
membership by more than 5 percent, the estimate of total
union membership in the U nited States of 19.8 m illio n,
including single-firm and directly affiliated local unions, as
shown on page 71, can be used as a basis to compute
a reasonable estimate of union collective bargaining cover
age in the United States.
This total, however, does not include the 2.1 m illio n
members of professional, State, and m unicipal employee
associations. It was estimated that approxim ately 2.7 m il
lio n employees were represented by the associations in
various forms of collective bargaining activities. Represen
tation, rather than agreement coverage, is used in form u
lating these estimates, since a number of associations are
not authorized by law to negotiate form al agreements, but
do engage in bargaining and representational activities.
Thus, the combined union and association collective bar
gaining coverage in the U nited States is estimated to be
23.4 m illio n.
Table 22.
In 1970, the Bureau requested unions to report
the total number and a broad occupational distribu
tion of full-time employees on their national head
quarters payroll in the United States.26 Information
for five occupational categories was requested: man
agers and administrators, professionals, clerical and
secretarial, organizers and representatives and other
classifications not specified. Unions were asked to
exclude elected officials and employees on the pay
rolls o f local unions and affiliated bodies.
The 135 unions responding to the questionnaire
2,i In 1964, the BLS survey asked unions to report on
the total number of full-tim e paid staff in the U nited States.
A t that time, 176 unions reported, and estimates made fo r
the rem aining 13 showed that 13,052 persons were on
headquarters’ payrolls. The 1964 survey did not provide
occupational distributions.

1 No estimates were made for 37 unions representing 5,070,000 members,
which did not report the number of employees on their payrolls. Thirteen
unions with 16,100 members reported no full-time employees other than
elected officials.
reported a total of 11,898 employees; A F L -C IO
affiliates employed 80 percent of all full-time em
ployees. Organizers and representatives, whose duty
is to recruit new members, serve locals, and aid
in contract negotiating were employed by 93 unions
and accounted for nearly one-half of all paid staff
employees. Clerical and secretarial personnel were
on the payrolls of 125 unions and made up 36
percent of all paid staffers. A F L -C IO affiliates em
ployed 77 percent of the organizers and representa
tives and 79 percent of the clerical and secretarial
employees. Thirteen unions, having 16,100 members,
reported no paid staff employees. N o estimates were
developed for 37 unions that had 5.1 million mem
bers. (See table 2 3 .)
The Automobile Workers (In d.) and the Steel
workers employed the largest paid staffs, 1,335 and
1,122 employees, respectively. (See appendix J.)
Nonetheless, the largest ratio of paid staff members
to total membership was reported by the Sleeping
Car Porters and the Writers Guild; each employed
one person for every 110 members. The A utom o
bile Workers (In d.) (one staff employee for every
1,110 members) and the Steelworkers (one for
every 1,070 members) ranked far behind. Other
unions reporting a high ratio of paid staff members
to members were the Directors Guild (1 to 170)
and T ool Craftsmen (1 to 170).
As can be expected, the average number of
employees generally increased with the size of the
union. (See table 2 4 .) A number of organizations,
however, such as the Actors, Service Employees,
and Hotel and Restaurant Employees, reported a
substantially smaller national staff than their size
appeared to indicate. This probably reflects a tradi
tional practice in certain unions of operating with a
small headquarters staff and leaving service activities,
handled in many unions at the national level, to
their local unions and intermediate or other bodies.
As in previous surveys, the 1971 questionnaire
asked unions to report persons holding selected staff
positions. For comparability, these positions were
categorized uniformly by the officer or other individ
ual performing the activity, as presented in table 25.
In terms of the most widely held staff position
in unions, legal activities ranked highest with 156, or
84 percent, of all unions designating someone to
this activity. Twenty-nine unions, representing 1.3
million members, did not employ someone for this
service; 11 of these were unaffiliated unions. O f those
unions reporting an individual handling legal activi
ties, 111, or over 70 percent, employed persons to
perform no other duties; the personnel generally were
designated lawyer (e.g., General Counsel; attorney).
The attorneys named may have been on the union
staff or members of law firms held on retainers by
the union. For those 34 unions in which the presi
dent, secretary-treasurer, or other officials had re
sponsibility for this area, it was not clear whether
these officials actually were attorneys or simply
supervised the various legal activities. The 156 filled
positions represent an increase of two from 1968, and
11 from 1966. Legal positions were filled by persons
in 102 A F L -C IO affiliated unions and 54 unaffil
iated. Despite the slightly higher proportion of
A F L -C IO unions naming a person to this position,
those named in unaffiliated unions were more fre
quently its president or secretary-treasurer than in
federation unions.
Closely ranked, in terms of the number of individ
uals holding the position was that of organizing
director. O f the 154 unions filling this position, de-

creasing from the 157 in the previous survey, 68
union presidents, 11 secretary-treasurers, and 16
other international offices directed the activity. A
total of 49 unions, covering 9.5 million members,
reported that the position was held by a person
specifically designated, in most cases, as “ Director
of Organizations.” This total shows a decline from
previous surveys (67 unions, covering 11.2 million
members in 1968, 77 unions having 11.2 million
members in 1966, 67 unions having 8.4 million
members in 1964, and 58 unions having 6.8 million
members in 1962). The 31 unions not filling the

AFL— CIO State organizations
1 One hundred and eleven unions indicated that a person holding no
other union positions performed legal activities functions. These persons
may not have been employees of the union but may have a retainer
agreement with the union and work for a law firm. Eleven unions named
persons in the legal position who performed other union functions
and who may or may not have been an attorney.
2 Thirty-one unions indicated that a person holding no other union
positions functioned in the public relations activity capacity. These
persons may be employees of a public relations firm or individuals on
retainer. Responses from 55 unions show that the person performing
public relations functions also were responsible for other union activities.

Forty-four unions indicated that a person holding no other union
positions functioned in the social insurance activity. These persons may
be employed by a law firm.
1 Responses from 26 State labor bodies indicated that the person
designated as performing legal activities performed no other function
and may have been employed by a law firm, held on retainer, or not
have been a lawyer.
r*Responses from 7 State federations indicated that a person per
forming public relations activities held no other position within the
organization. Six reported that an individual performing public relations
functions also served in other capacities.

were 28 (including “ research and education” direc
tors) the same number reported in 1968, compared
with 29 in 1966. In well over half, these positions
were filled by the president or secretary-treasurer.
The 1971 questionnaire, for the first time, asked
State labor councils to name persons holding legal
and public relations positions. Twenty-seven State
bodies reported that someone acted in a legal ca
pacity, and this person usually was designated as a
General Counsel. Public relations positions were
filled by 26 State bodies, and in half were occupied
by the president or secretary-treasurer.
More unions than in any previous survey (the
first in 1949) reported that a person was desig
nated as a research or education director. Research
directors, including individuals designated as research
and education directors, were reported by 120 unions
compared with 119 in 1968, 108 in 1960, and 80
in 1949. For education directors, also including re
search and education directors, the comparable fig
ures were 116, 113, 85, and 48, respectively. T o
a greater extent than was the case in other positions,
except legal activities, a person other than the
president or secretary-treasurer occupied one or both
of these positions. N o research or education directors
were reported by 55 unions having a total mem
bership of 805,000 but only 2 of these had 100,000
members or more, and 39 had fewer than 10,000.
The questionnaires sent to associations, differing
from that sent to unions, provided spaces for major
elected officers, administrative officers, and individ
uals responsible for collective bargaining activities.
In order to achieve some degree of uniformity, titles
for this latter category were changed so as to con
form to, or approximate, positions in unions. One
position not comparable with that in unions is the
administrative position of executive director or
executive secretary. O f the 23 associations included
in this statistical series, 21 named an executive
director who, generally under direction of elected
officials, implemented policy decisions and carried
out the daily operations of the organization. In
addition, 12 associations named an individual to
carry on public relations activities. Other positions
filled by associations included legal activities ( 8 ) ,
organizing activities ( 9 ) , government relations ( 9 ) ,
research or education director ( 7 ) , collective bar
gaining activities ( 5 ) , employee relations ( 2 ) , and
social insurance ( 3 ) .
A total of 140 unions, compared with 132 in
1968, named an individual to fill the legislative ac
tivities position. The 45 unions not filling this job
represented 1.7 million members and 22 were un
affiliated unions. In 65 unions, the position was
held or the activity directed by the president*
secretary-treasurer, or another international officer.
Public relations activities were filled by 140 unions,
compared with 121 unions in 1968. In 55 unions,
public relations responsibilities were allocated to
union staff, performing other duties, such as the
editor of its publication, or the director of research,
education, or legislative activities. An almost equal
number of unions ( 5 4 ), named the president,
secretary-treasurer, or other international officer, to
direct this activity. O f the 45 unions having 2 million
members, and not having any person to perform this
duty, 20 were unaffiliated unions.
The number of persons in charge of activities
related to various social insurance programs, such
as health insurance and pensions, was 129 com
pared with 128 in 1968, and 134, 133, and 129 in
1966, 1964, and 1962, respectively. In 65 unions,
an international officer directed this activity; 43
unions delegated this responsibility to a person hav
ing no other position. Fifty-six unions, having 2.5
million members, reported this position unfilled.
Union publications
O f the 185 labor unions surveyed, 153 issued a
total of 187 publications. Sixteen unions reported
two publications each, 4 unions reported a total of
3 each, 2 unions reported 4, and 1 reported 5
publications. The largest number of periodicals (9 5 )
appeared monthly, followed by 21, bimonthly; 21,
quarterly; 13, biweekly; 11, weekly; 5, semimonthly;
4, annually; 3, triweekly; 3, 8 issues annually; 3,
10 issues annually; 1, 3 issues annually; 1, 5 issues
annually; 1, 9 issues annually and periodically. Fre
quency of issue for 5 other publications was un
specified. The 32 unions reporting no publications
had a combined membership of 247,000. Of these
32, 20 were unaffiliated unions that had a combined
membership o f 81,000.
Director of legislative activities, the position most
often named, was filled in 45 A F L -C IO State
organizations; however, three-quarters of the posi
tions were held or the activity directed by the presi
dent or secretary-treasurer. Nineteen State bodies
reported research directors in 1970, (including “ re
search and education” directors) compared with
21 in 1968 and 25 in 1966. Education directors

Nine States and the District of Columbia lost a total of
11 headquarters as a result of moves and mergers,
and three States, including California, gained five.
The addition to the Directory of two independent
Federal unions, and the transfer of the International
Guards Union of America (In d.) from Minnesota
accounted for the increase of three additional union
headquarters in California. The number of unions
headquartered in Washington, D .C., decreased from
59 to 57. However, it remained the site o f the head
quarters of over 50 percent of total union mem
bership. The decrease in the number of unions head
quartered in the District of Columbia is attributed to
the deletion of three unions no longer listed and the
addition of a government union. Unions dropped in
cluded the Bakery and Confectionery Workers’ Inter
national Union o f America (In d.) and the Post Office
Mail Handlers, Watchmen, Messengers and Group
Leaders (A F L -C I O ), both as a result of merger. The
National Customs Service Association (In d .), which
has headquarters in Washington, D.C., appears for
the first time.
Thirty-eight of the 51 A F L -C IO State and area
(Puerto R ic o ) bodies issued a total of 43 publi
cations, 5 of these organizations issued 2 publica
tions each. Twenty-three publications were issued
monthly; 8 weekly; 4 quarterly; 3 periodically; 2
annually; 2 bimonthly; and 1 biweekly.
A ll 23 associations issued one publication, and
four issued 2. O f the 27 publications, 14 are issued
monthly; 4 quarterly; 4 bimonthly; 2 semimonthly;
1 weekly and 1 periodically; and 1 did not specify.
O f the 147 unions which reported an individual
in the position of editor, the president directed this
activity in 55 unions, and the secretary-treasurer or
other international officers were named by 20. The
director of public relations, research or education
director, or other staff person also performed the
editor’s duties in 43 unions. In 29 unions, the editor
ship was the designated individual’s sole responsi
bility. In 6 unions, no editor was reported.
In State labor bodies, the president (1 6 States)
and secretary-treasurer or other international officer
( 6 ) were named as editor. Five public relations
directors and five research or education directors
filled this capacity in addition to their other duties.
A n individual not elsewhere named was designated
as editor in four States. Tw o States failed to re
spond to this inquiry. Nine editors in employee asso
ciations acted solely in that position; seven acted
as the public relations director; five were executive
directors or secretaries; one headed employee serv
ices; and one association did not report.
Compulsory retirement and turnover of union
officers
For the first time, unions were asked to provide
information on compulsory retirement of officers and
limits on the number of terms officers serve. In
1970, as in 1968, unions were asked to provide the
year the president and secretary-treasurer were first
elected to office. (See table 2 7 .)
O f the 177 unions that responded to the question
on mandatory retirement, 46 reported a mandatory
retirement age for either national or local officers.
Forty-four unions require national officers to retire
upon reaching ages 65 or 70, as indicated below;
17 of these 44 also have established a mandatory
retirement age for local officers. Tw o additional
unions, the Coopers and the Watch Workers, re
quired only that local officers retire at a specified
age. A breakdown is shown in the following
tabulation:
Union headquarters—locations
Union headquarters were scattered among 28
States, the District of Columbia, and Canada, as
shown in table 26. By far the highest concentration
was in Washington, D .C., where 57 union headquar
ters, 31 percent of the total, were located. New York
State had 36 headquarters, and Illinois had 15, and
ranked second and third, respectively. Washington,
D.C., and New Y ork State also ranked first and
second in terms of membership represented; Michi
gan ranked third, due primarily to the Automobile
W orkers’ (In d.) offices in Detroit.
A ge
Tw o States, Connecticut and South Dakota, were
added to the 1968 list o f States hosting union head
quarters. Connecticut was added as a result of the
Alliance of Independent Telephone Unions (In d.)
transferring its office from Philadelphia, Pennsyl
vania, and South Dakota was added, as a result of the

totals.
unions responded to the Directory questionnaire, as
officers, this policy is generally decided at the local
level and may be more prevalent in local constitu
tions and by-laws than indicated by the responses.
For a listing of unions reporting on compulsory re
tirement, see appendix K.
Unions requiring retirement of national officers
vary in size, although 26 had 100,000 members or
fewer. Tw o of the three largest unions, the A uto
mobile Workers (In d.) and the Steelworkers, both
of which have over 1 million members, reported
that national officers become ineligible for reelection
to office when reaching age 65, although the term
of office may be completed. N o member may be
nominated who is 65 years old or over.
Changes in this area have occurred, since the
—
a result of recent convention activities. For example,
during the September 1971 convention of the Pulp,
Sulphite Workers, one of the unions reporting com
pulsory retirement, delegates amended the union’s
constitution to exempt the president from the manda
tory retirement provision. Delegates to the Railway
Clerks’ May 1971 convention voted to lower the
retirement age of all candidates for grand lodge and
subordinate unit officers to age 65, from the previ
ously stipulated age 70. By convention action, in
cumbent officers who were over age 65 were per
mitted to complete their term of office. As of July
1, 1975, however, all B R A C officers must retire
at the end of the month in which they reach age 65.

1 As reported by national labor unions end supplemented for 1971 by
reports of new officers elected. In adaption, those unions that merged
or became defunct as of December 1971 were excluded. Changes in
affiliation were also taken into account.
- One independent union reported no president or secretary-treasurer.
Three unions with 35,623 members reported no information. Thirteen
unions with 633,559 members reported no office of Secretary-treasurer.
Nine unions with 2,171,700 members reported separate offices for secre
tary and treasurer. Two unions with 102,000 members had vacancies at
the end of 1971.
1 Less than 1,000.
Only four small independent unions with mem
bership in the Federal Government reported that the
number of terms a national officer may serve are
limited. Three of the organizations, the Quarantine
Inspectors (In d .), the Trademark Society (In d .),
and the Aeronautical Production Controlmen (In d .),
limit national officers to two terms. The Federal
Veterinarians (In d.) limit national officers to one
term.
Beginning in 1968, unions were asked to provide
the year that the president and secretary-treasurer
were first elected to office. The present responses
in 1970 indicate that turnover of these elected offi
cials continued to be high. (F or a detailed discussion
of turnover among union presidents, see “ Develop
ments since the 1969 D i r e c t o r y page 5 8.) Con
trary to evidence presented in the 1969 survey, when
turnover rates for both offices appeared similar, 1970
data indicate turnover among union presidents is
higher than for secretary-treasurers. (See table 26.)
During the 1966-71 period, for example, 96 union
presidents, or 55 percent, were elected to this office
compared with 72 secretary-treasurers, or 49 per
cent of the total. Over the decade, 1961-71, 76
percent o f union presidents assumed office, compared
with 74 percent of the secretary-treasurers.
Changes among presidents of unaffiliated unions
were greater proportionately than among A F L -C IO
unions. Approximately 72 percent o f A F L -C IO
affiliates and 85 percent of independent union presi
dents first took office in 1961 or later. This higher
proportion of unaffiliated presidential turnover held
for the 1966-71 and 1970-71 periods as well. For
the office o f secretary-treasurer, however, only in
the 1961-71 period did the unaffiliated unions show
a higher turnover rate, 75 percent compared with
74, while in the other periods the A F L -C IO rate
was greater. Joseph L. Rainey, secretary-treasurer
of the Textile Foremen’s Guild, Inc. (In d .) since
1937, has been longest in office in this position.

don't describe tomorrow's jobs...
In today's fast moving world, yesterday's occupational information is quickly
outdated. That's why the Bureau of Labor Statistics regularly revises the O c c u p a
tio n a l O u tlo o k H a n d b o o k , the standard reference tool for guidance and voca
tional counselors, students, veterans, and others seeking authoritative career in
formation.
The 1972-73 edition of the H a n d b o o k reflects the effects of technological
and economic changes on the job outlook for 8 00 major occupations and 30
major industries.
Each job discussion gives up-to-date facts about the nature
of the work, earnings, current employment, future employment prospects, and
educational and training requirements.
The 1972-73 H a n d b o o k describes more than 20 occupations not covered in
earlier editions. Included are many new, fast-growing subprofessional jobs such
as surgical technician, optometric assistant, social service aide, and food process
ing technician.
For the person with less formal education, the new H a n d b o o k
reports on opportunities in trucking and in laundry and drycleaning firms and in
jobs such as parking attendant, guard and watchman, and stock clerk.
The price of the 1972-73 H a n d b o o k , the biggest— over 850 pages— and
most comprehensive in H a n d b o o k history, is $6.25. To order, use the form below.
