The mighty JOE WORKER, hero of
Labor, goes marching down the ages!
Na/iona/ lahot Service, U. S. A-
FOREWORD
HERE is the STORY of LABOR in America - dra-
matic! important! thrill-packed! more exciting than any
adventure novel!
Join the millions of Americans who have always
wanted to know the real, true story of Labor and Labor
Unions in this country. Why did Captain John Smith's
Colony foil? Who were the Sons of Liberty? When did
the first labor union start? What part did Labor play
in the fight for free education? What was the Know-
Nothing Party? What was the difference between the
First and the Second Ku Klux Klan? Who was Samuel
Gompers? What did the Knights of Labor want?
NRA . . . NLRB . . . FEPC ... AFL ... CIO ... do
you know what these letters stand for? What is Labor
fighting for now?
All the answers — and plenty more — con be found
in this color-splashed, dialogued series of comic strips,
with peppy explanatory text.
When you have finished this great story, you will
have a new understandmg and a new pride in the
history of the American worker and his fight for better
conditions, for a world free of intolerance and preju-
dice, for a world of decency and unity.
A book for every American — regardless of race,
color or creed.
IHf THICK Of SETTING WOKKEII AGAINST WOKKEH STAITEO WAT lACK. THE IDEA WAS TO
«EEP COMMON MEN OF OlFfEREHT TRUES AND TONGUES OIVIDEO AND ENSLAVED. KING
NIMROD OF ANCIENT lABYlONIA TRIED THIS, lUT IT DION T WORK-HE EVEN LOST HIS
OWN KINGDOM THE CENTURIES HAVE TAUGHT LAIOR THE GREAT LESSON-ONIY IN UNION
IS THERE STRENGTH. SO TODAY All AMERICAN WORKERS, NATIVE lORN AND FOREIGN.
CHRISTIAN AND JEW, WHITE AND NEGRO, TOGETHER MARCH FORWARD.

AGES MOST WOKXEftS WERE SERFS Tl£» TO THE FEUDAL MANOR. LATER THE PROOUCERS Of
COODS TRIED THE GUILD SYHEM AND FROM THE IZTH TO THE ISTH CENTURIES CRAFT AND
MERCHANT GUILDS FLOURISHED. lUT THESE 0RGANI2ATI0HS WERE MONOPOLIES AND PER-
MIHED NO COMPETITION. SO, IN THE 16TH CENTURY, THE CAPITALIST COMPETITIVE SYSTEM
lEPLACED THE GUILDS. lUT TIMES WERE HARD IN THE 17TH CENTURY AND MANY WOIXEIS
AND "GENTLEMEN" CAME FROM EUROFE IM SEARCH OF A NEW WOILO.

TYriCAl or THIS DEMOCRATIC KIND OF UNIOH WAS THE AMALGAMATED ASSOCIATION OF
IRON AND STEEl WORKERS. All RACES AND R£llCIONS EMriOYED IN THE PENNSYLVANIA
STEEl Mills lANDED TOGETHER. AT FIRST THE CARNEGIE STEEl CO. RECOGNIZED THE
UNION. lUT IN 1892 A NEW MANAGER CAME IN AND WITH HIM CAME TROUILE. FRICK
USED THE OLD "DIVIDING" TRICK AND THE ONION WAS CRUSHED. AFTER THE HOMESTEAD
STRIKE WAS LOST, SO YEARS PASSED BEFORE STEEl WAS UNIONIZED AGAIN. IN THE
ME/^NTItf THERE WAS THE 12H0UR DAY AND STARVATION WAGES.

THE SCRAP HEAP. SO LABOR ONIONS WORKED FOR OLD AGE PENSIONS. ABIY ASSISTED BY
ABRAHAM EPSTEIN, ISAAC M. RUBINOW AND PAUL H. DOUGLAS. AS A RESULT OF THEIR
COMBINED EFFORTS, THE SOCIAl SECURITY AO WAS PASSED IN 1935. IT PROVIDED A SMALL

KHOWINC THE F*0$ IS HALF THE BAniE WOH. THAT'S WHY LABOR HAS ALWAYS ST»E$SE6
THE IMPORTANCE OF LEARNING. FREE, UNIVERSAL EDUCATION IS THE PATH TO REAL
DEMOCRACY. ONLY PEOPLE WITH A SOUND KNOWLEDGE OF THE WORLD THEY LIVE IN, PLUS
STRAIGHT THINKING, CAN TELL A RABBLE-ROUSER FROM A PATRIOT, A FAKE FROM A FACT,
A PREJUDICE FROM THE TRUTH. THOSE STATES WITH THE WORST BIGOTS AND HATE-
MONGERS HAVE THE FEWEST SCHOOLS AND LOWEST EDUCATIONAL STANDARDS.
