Directory of Labor Unions in the United States

This directory of labor unions in the United States lists the addresses and principal officers of the American Federation of Labor and the Congress of Industrial Organizations, and of their affiliated unions and organizations. It also includes all national and international unions not affiliated with either the AFL or CIO which have come to the attention of the Department of Labor. A total of 105 AFL affiliates, 40 CIO affiliates and 52 independent or unaffiliated unions are listed. In addition, the directory contains a separate roster of union research directors.

Membership of national and international unions in the United States according to union statements and estimates based on union sources totaled approximately 15,000,000 at the beginning of 1947.

During 1946 a number of changes occurred in the affiliation and structure of American labor unions. These included the reaffiliation with the AFL in January 1946 of the United Mine Workers of America and the affiliation, also with the AFL during the year, of four other formerly independent unions—the National Association of Postal Supervisors, the Brotherhood of Railroad Signalmen of America, the Railroad Yardmasters of America and the Southern Tenant Farmers, Union, now known as the National Farm Labor Union.

The International Association of Machinists, suspended by the AFL in December 1945, and the Progressive Mine Workers of America, assumed an independent or unaffiliated status. Two former AFL affiliates, the International Union of United Brewery, Flour, Cereal and Soft Drink Workers and the Amalgamated Lithographers of America, received CIO charters in 1946.

One newly organized union, the Radio Directors Guild, was granted an AFL charter in September 1946, and the Air Line Dispatchers Association, formerly an AFL federal union, was chartered by the AFL in February 1947. The United Public Workers of America (CIO) was formed by the amalgamation of two former CIO unions, the United Federal Workers of America and the State, County and Municipal Workers of America.

Five small unions also became part of larger unions having jurisdiction in the same general field: The Air Line Communication Employees Association (Ind.) entered the American Communications Association; the International Federation of Architects, Engineers, Chemists and Technicians (CIO) merged with the United Office and

Professional Workers of America (CIO); the United Financial Employees (Ind.) joined the Office Employees’ International Union (AFL); the National Federation of Rural Letter Carriers merged with the National Association of Letter Carriers; and the United Licensed Officers of the U. S. A. (Ind.) became a part of the United Mine Workers of America, District 50 (AFL).

President Secretary- TreasurerW illiam Green George M eany

Originally formed in 1881 as the Federation of Organized Trades and Labor Unions of the United States and Canada, the American Federation of Labor adopted its present name in 1886. In that year the Federation comprised 13 national and international unions with a total membership of approximately 150,000. Today the AFL has five major departments, 105 national and international unions and 50 State and Territorial branches. As of March 1947 the membership of the AFL, based on per capita tax payments received from affiliated unions, was in excess of 7,500,000.

The function of the Union Label Trades Department is primarily to publicize the official emblems—union labels, shop cards, and service buttons—of 52 affiliated national and international unions. It also promotes the sale of union label goods and the patronage of union services.


CONGRESS OF INDUSTRIAL ORGANIZATIONS 718 Jackson Place NW

Washington 6, D. C.President Secretary-Treasurer

Philip M urray James B. Carey

The Committee for Industrial Organizations (CIO) was formed in November 1935 to organize into unions all workers, irrespective of their skills, in certain mass production industries. The original committee was composed of 8 AFL unions. Differences between the AFL and its CIO-affiliated unions resulted in the latter’s suspension and ultimate expulsion from the AFL. In 1938 the CIO adopted a constitution and its present name, the Congress of Industrial Organizations. The CIO currently has 40 national and international unions and 36 State branches and reports a membership of approximately 6,000,000 members.

INDEPENDENT (UNAFFILIATED) UNIONS

A number of unions are not affiliated with either the AFL or CIO and hence are commonly referred to as “ unaffiliated” or “ independent.” The directory lists 52 independent unions known to the Bureau of Labor Statistics as having more than one local and holding collective bargaining agreements with more than one company.

At present, the largest and most widely known of the independent unions are the four train and engine service railroad brotherhoods with approximately 450,000 members, the International Association of Machinists, a former AFL affiliate, with 600,000 members, the National Federation of Telephone Workers numbering approximately 225,000 members, and the National Federation of Federal Employees reporting a total membership of 88,000. At the beginning of 1947, total independent union membership in the United States was estimated at slightly more than 1,750,000.
