Whitney leads Brotherhood chief to White House in 1940s turmoil
Whitney, grand chief of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, visited the White House for a closed conference amid labor war talks. Truman urged Congress for an automatic draft to quash railroad strikes, while Whitney planned to use nearly 547 million dollars from the Brotherhood treasury to influence the 1948 election. He later reconciled with the President and remained labor’s top ally in the reelection campaign. He hailed from Cedar Falls Iowa, built a long political career across parties, and died while planning to visit Washington on legislative matters. His immediate death came after authorizing a strike on the Southern Pacific Railroad. He survived by his wife, two sons, and a daughter.
