A 1909 labor manifesto denounces the United States Steel Corporation for wage cuts and anti union actions. It urges nationwide organizing, appeals for unions to fund strikes, and calls on federal and state officials to address alleged civil rights suppressions. It also proposes central labor committees to coordinate action with governments and presidents.
Labor leaders call for investigation into United States Steel
