Mary Van Kleeck- Russell Sage Foundation Industrial Research Collection (Papers, 1910-1950) 53 Manuscript Boxes Accession No The Mary van Kleeck- Russell Sage Foundation Industrial Research Collection (papers, 1910-1950) 53 manuscript boxes Accession No. 573 Most of the papers (and all of the personal papers) of Mary van Kleeck were deposited at the Sophia Smith Collection at Smith College, her alma mater. She separated some material having to do with labor research, and designated the Archives of Labor and Urban Affairs as the repository for that material, which largely comprises the files of Edward A. Wieck, D. Knickerbacker Boyd, and other research experts in her RSF Department. Thirteen of the fifty boxes are some of her own files and studies as Director of Industrial Research at the Russell Sage Foundation. These files were received by the Archives in 1972, The Edward A. Wieck collection, already deposited at the archives, has a close relationship to his files in the van Kleeck Collection, which were geenrated at the Russell Sage Foundation, Only a few of the many studies are duplicated. These files comprise Boxes 22 to 34. They contain many original documents gathered by Wieck, relating to labor conditions and strikes in the coal, steel and automobile industries. The mining documents here postdate the documents in the Wieck papers. The studies of industrial relations and conditions in the building industry (1915-1935), by the noted architect, D, Knickerbacker Boyd (as well as the numerous other studies included here), were done under the Russell Sage Foundation aegis, and under Miss van Kleeck's direction. Mary van Kleeck (1883-1972) was Director of Industrial Studies for the Russell Sage Foundation from 1908 to 1948. The author of many books, articles and pamphlets, and a speaker in great demand, she was an industrial sociologist and expert on employment statistics and working conditions. During World War I she was appointed Director of the Women's Bureau of the US Department of Labor, and a member of the War Labor Policies Board. She was Associate Director of the International Industrial Relations Institute, and one of the founders of the Interprofessional Association for Social Insurance. She was an early expert on working women and their problems. Edward A. Wieck (1884-1963) was a long-time officer of the United Mine Workers of America. From 1934 to 1948 he was Research Associate at the Russell Sage Foundation with Mary van Kleeck in the Department of Industrial Studies. -2- D. Knickerbacker Boyd (1872-1944) , prominent architect of New York and Philadelphia, an officer and fellow of the American Institute of Architects, founded the Philadelphia Building Congress, and was a lecturer and writer in the architectural field. He gave his unique and precise building industry files to the RSF Industrial Studies department with the understanding that his files would not be disarranged in any way. His files have been kept in his original order, and comprise Boxes 35 to 50. Principal subjects in the collection are: Apprenticeships in Construction Industry Automobile Industry-Labor Relations and Historic Documents Building Industry-Labor Relations Citizens' Waterfront Committee, 1946-1947 Coal Industry-Labor Relations and Historic Documents Colorado Fuel and Iron Company Economic Conferences and Congresses Housing Industrial Fatigue Industrial Relations Institute (International) Interprofessional Association for Social Insurance Miners' Unions National Recovery Administration Productivity Sit-down Strikes Social Insurance Social Planning Social Work Standards of Living Statistics Steel Industry-Labor Relations and Historic Documents Unemployment Union Agreements Wartime Labor Problems (WWII) Welfare Work Working Women Correspondents include Mary van Kleeck, E. A. Wieck, Mary Fledderus, D. Knickerbacker Boyd, John M. Glenn, Henry Kraus, and numerous others, many notable, but with no frequency. Miss van Kleeck's, Edward Wieck's and D. Knickerbacker Boyd's letters are not indexed but will be found in their sections of these papers. Correspondents in Boyd's files were not indexed, as, although there are many letters, they are nearly all single letters, answering inquiries. An index of some correspondence is at the end of this guide. -3- Series Description Series I. Files of Mary van Kleeck (Boxes 1-13) This series consists of seven files: A-Correspondence and Subject File; B-Conferences and Committees; C-Speeches and Writings; D-Clip- pings; E-Industrial Relations Institute, F-Interprofessional As- sociation for Social Insurance; and G-Working Women. Material is as indicated, and includes also research reports and research material. Dates are mostly between 1921 and 1952, a few going back as far as 1910. Series II. Russell Sage Foundation Industrial Research Papers (Boxes 14-50) These files include reports by a number of researchers, including Mary van Kleeck herself, Edward A. Wieck, D. Knickerbacker Boyd, Louis Bloch, and many others. Original documents on coal mining, the steel industry, the automobile industry, and other industries and workplaces, as well as the final reports, are included. Files are: A-Miscellaneous Industrial Studies; B-Colorado Fuel and Iron Company; C-Collective Bargaining in the Coal Industry; D-Edward A. Wieck files, notes and studies, including coal and steel documents; E-Automobile Industry under the NRA, and original documents; and F-the D. Knickerbacker Boyd Files on the Building Industry. Dates of most papers are between 1920 and 1950, some material earlier. Much relevant published material from Mary van Kleeck's papers has been given to the Archives library. Most of it has to do with mining. This includes numerous published reports, pamphlets, early proceedings of UMWA, and court trial transcripts from 1900, mostly UMWA cases. Among the serials are the Progressive Miner, the Coal Mining Review, the UMWA Journal and many agreements. Interesting old cases involving the chief early union leaders, Mother Mary Jones, etc. are also among these library materials. A copy of the guide to the Mary van Kleeck Collection at the Sophia Smith Collection at Smith College, may be seen on request. -4- Contents BOXES Series I.

    NRA FROM WITHIN Wm. O. Thompson Member 01 the Darrow Board Mary van Kleeck • THE COMMUNIST POSITION I by Earl Browder • INTERNATIONAL PAMPHLETS, No. 41 5 cents FOREWORD· THE National Industrial Recovery Act has now been in opera­ tion for one year. The recent statement of William O. Thompson in resigning as a member of the National Recovery Review Board, clearly exposes this Act as an instrument for increasing the power of monopoly capital in the United States, a weapon for a further attack upon the standard of living of the working class and a step in the direction of fascism in this country. For their factual information and significant though incom­ plete interpretation of the National Industrial Recovery Act, we reproduce in this pamphlet certain statements as released to the press by persons who have participated in governmental bodie! during this period. We present also the fundamental analysis of the Roosevelt New Deal made by Earl Browder, Secretary of the Communist Party of the U. S. A. A word of explanation on each is in place here. I. Thompson's Resignation: In a letter to President Roosevelt, June 14, 1934, W. O. Thompson presented his resignation as a member of the National Recovery Review Board, declaring that "as a result of my contact with the workings of the National Recovery Administration through membership on the Recovery Review Board, I have been forced to the following conclusions: The trend of the National Recovery Administration has been and continues to be toward the encouragement and development of monopoly capitalism in the United States..

  • Abstract Kamaladevi Chattopadhyaya, Anti
    ABSTRACT KAMALADEVI CHATTOPADHYAYA, ANTI-IMPERIALIST AND WOMEN'S RIGHTS ACTIVIST, 1939-41 by Julie Laut Barbieri This paper utilizes biographies, correspondence, and newspapers to document and analyze the Indian socialist and women’s rights activist Kamaladevi Chattopadhyaya’s (1903-1986) June 1939-November 1941 world tour. Kamaladevi’s radical stance on the nationalist cause, birth control, and women’s rights led Gandhi to block her ascension within the Indian National Congress leadership, partially contributing to her decision to leave in 1939. In Europe to attend several international women’s conferences, Kamaladevi then spent eighteen months in the U.S. visiting luminaries such as Eleanor Roosevelt and Margaret Sanger, lecturing on politics in India, and observing numerous social reform programs. This paper argues that Kamaladevi’s experience within Congress throughout the 1930s demonstrates the importance of gender in Indian nationalist politics; that her critique of Western “international” women’s organizations must be acknowledged as a precursor to the politics of modern third world feminism; and finally, Kamaladevi is one of the twentieth century’s truly global historical agents.

    ECONOMIC SECURITY ACT ' 922 salaried members of the group, who generally are in the later middle years of life, especially where the individuals in this group change from year to year, as their salary changes would pass them in or out of the group. On the other hand, it would be difficult to get ministers and local church boards to pay the earnings and employment excise taxes one year, and then skip one or more years, then resume, and at the same time pay in correspondingly fluc­ tuating sums to their denominational pension boards in order to provide the pen­ sions to the higher salaried men, the disability pensions for all the group, the widows pensions, the orphans pensions, and besides, the supplemental pensions which would have been provided in the earlier years of the operation of the Fed­ eral System, where the age anuities are limited to 15 percent or only slightly higher percentages of average salaries, limited to $150 per month. Furthermore most of these pension boards also make provision for the mis­ sionaries of their churches, home and foreign, and the larger part of the foreign missionaries would be excluded from the Federal Plan because of performing the greater part of their duties outside the continental United Sta.tes. Without depriving anyone of the right to be cared for under the Federal Plan the amendment we propose will enable the Church Pension Fund, which can demonstrate to the Social Insurance Board, their ability to do so, to make pro- vision for larger age annuities for their beneficiaries than the Federal Plan.

Master of Arts in history. University of Richmond. May 1996. Professor R. Barry Westin, thesis director. The American Civil Liberties Union and an overwhelming majority of its historians have maintained that the organization has devoted its efforts solely to the protection of the Bill of Rights. This thesis examines that claim, focusing on the events that culminated in the expulsion of Elizabeth Gurley Flynn from the Union's Board of Directors. Relying primarily on the organization's own publications and archives, as well as several insiders' accounts, the analysis concludes that the issue of communism increasingly polarized the Board and, in a gross violation of its nonpartisan commitment to the defense of civil liberties, led ultimately to the Communist Flynn's removal.

An Exploratory Study ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to examine the question: “to what extent does union membership and ethical clinical social work practice align?” by interviewing Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSW) working within unionized environments. The study focused on the experience of these clinicians within their current working environment and how being a union member allowed them to be able to provide ethical clinical social work practice to their clients/patients. The most compelling findings from this research were that the clinicians felt that union membership did align with providing ethical clinical social work practice to their populations within their agencies or organizations.
