    ABSTRACT CARVER, MARK DEAN. The Unionization of Erwin’s Mill: A History of TWUA Local 250, in Erwin, North Carolina: 1938-1952 (Under the direction of David Zonderman) The purpose of this study is to document the history of the Textile Workers union of America (TWUA), Local 250, in Erwin, North Carolina, from 1938-1952. Prior to unionization, Erwin’s workers suffered unfair labor practices including: heavy workloads, low wages, long hours, and the absence of grievance procedure. The unionization of Erwin’s workers provided a grievance procedure, fair workloads, higher wages, and better hours. TWUA Local 250 worked hard to represent its members and assure them a fair and just system. This thesis examines the first fifteen years of unionization and some of the problems that occurred in Erwin’s mill. These problems include anti-union sentiment, unfair company policies, an unnecessary strike, and a political power struggle within the national union. Through the examination of primary sources including company, union, government correspondences, newspaper articles, and personal interviews, it becomes evident that Erwin’s workers needed a union to ensure a fair and just system. A fair and just system would only be possible through better communication with the company, the national union, and the federal government. The company, national union, and government seemed to care very little for the desperate situations endured by Local 250 during these first fifteen years. This thesis shows the national union’s poor judgment, lack of leadership, and most of all, lack of compassion for Local 250. This study provides a view of the national union from the perspective of the local union.

  • ANNA B. SULLIVAN, 1903-83: the FORMATIVE YEARS of a TEXTILE MILL UNION ORGANIZER (Holyoke, Massachusetts)
    Anna Sullivan From Labor Unity newspaper, Oct. 1979, p. 16. ANNA B. SULLIVAN, 1903-83: THE FORMATIVE YEARS OF A TEXTILE MILL UNION ORGANIZER (Holyoke, Massachusetts) L. MARA DODGE Abstract: Heralded as “Labor’s First Lady in Western Massachu- setts,” those who knew Anna Burns Sullivan (1903-83) used similar terms to describe her: she was a “dynamo,” “always the little spark plug in the crowd,” and “a real fighter for her people.” Although well-known throughout her lifetime as “the little fireball from West- ern Massachusetts,” her memory has been all but forgotten. No buildings, streets, parks, or rooms at the local community college are named after her. Perhaps more importantly, equally forgotten is the experience of an entire generation of textile mill workers who labored in obscurity from the Great Depression to the closing of the New England textile mills in the 1950s and 1960s. This article explores Sullivan’s pioneering work as a female labor union ac- tivist. The first part provides an introductory overview of her life and accomplishments. The following seven sections offer a detailed biographical sketch of Sullivan’s childhood, early experiences as a mill worker, and subsequent rise to local prominence as a union organizer during the national textile strike of 1934.1 * * * * * 1 Anna Sullivan’s life story has been pieced together from the following sources: newspaper articles; interviews with family members and colleagues; two lengthy, oral interviews she gave in the 1970s; and extensive records of her union work found in the vast files of the Textile Workers Union of Amer- ica located at the Wisconsin State Historical Society (hereafter referred to as “TWUA Collection”).

Years of unanswered industrial grievances culminated in a general strike unparal- leled in the region, with over 170,000 southern mill hands ultimately joining ranks in protest. In Durham, North Carolina, the operatives of Mill 1, flagship of the Erwin Mills Company, immediately presented a united front of organized opposi- tion. Picket lines also quickly sprang up around Erwin Mill 2, located eighty miles southeast of Durham in the town of Erwin.
