Every 2 years, for more than a decade, the Bureau of Labor Statistics has issued a Directory of National and International Labor Unions in the United States, based on information voluntarily submitted by the unions in response to a questionnaire. Users have seen this series evolve from a simple listing of unions and their principal officers to a basic factbook and directory, useful for a wide variety of purposes both in this country and abroad. With the co­ operation of the unions covered, the present Directory moves another step forward in providing more information on the movement as well as a more complete and efficient directory. The first part of this bulletin describes developments since 1957 and the structure of the labor movement, and presents the results of a survey of union membership and functions conducted in conjunction with obtaining directory information. New to this series are estimates of A F L -C IO membership by State and a more detailed industry breakdown of union members. The directory part of this bulletin was also improved by the identification of additional union jobs and officials, an index of commonly used union ini­ tials, and an index of all persons identified in the directory. A s was done after the publication of the previous Directory, the Bureau plans to issue, at irregular intervals, listings of Directory changes occasioned by mergers, deaths, personnel shifts, changes in officers, changes of address, etc., as this information comes to the Bureau’s attention. These listings will be available on request. It cannot be too strongly emphasized that listings in this Directory are not intended to, nor can they, in fact, confer status or recognition on any organiza­ tion. The basic requirement for inclusion in the Directory listing of national and international unions was affiliation with the A F L -C IO or, for unaffili­ ated unions, the existence of collective bargaining agreements with different employers in more than one State (except for national unions of government employees). Every effort was made to include all unions that met this standard. The Directory was prepared in the Bureau’s Division of Wages and Indus­ trial Relations by Harry P. Cohany, assisted by Henry S. Rosenbloom, under the direction of Joseph W . Bloch.

Membership Trends and Changes The loss of nearly 500,000 members since 1956 stands in sharp contrast with gains of earlier pe­ riods, particularly the years 1934-45, when mem­ bership of national and international unions in the United States (exclusive of Canada) grew spec­ tacularly from 3.1 to 14.3 million (chart 1).

Despite recent losses, union membership as a proportion of the total labor force and of total employment in nonagricultural establishments15 has remained virtually unchanged at about one out of four and one out of three, respectively. These proportions have prevailed for most of the post-World War II period (chart 2). Although total membership has shown consid­ erable stability in recent years, individual unions have experienced substantial ups and downs. Be­ tween 1951 and 1958, membership in almost three-fifths of the unions reporting fluctuated by 15 percent or more (table 2).
