Ruling Opens Door to Outside Union Leadership at Berkeley Mills
The National Labor Board found Berkeley Woolen Company in violation for refusing to deal with any employee representative not from its own mill. At Martinsburg and Winchester mills, 400 workers led by William F. Kelly of the United Textile Workers struck after firings of a union committee. A staged local settlement call and police maneuver surrounded by political figures marked the night, with officials later noting the ruling allows outside union leaders or attorneys to represent employees, while internal representatives cannot be fired. The decision could lead to federal prosecution if violations persist, amid broader labor tension and repeal-era tax notes.
