Union Seeks Recognition After Kanawha Valley Traction Dismissals
A union of Kanawha Valley Traction Company workers in Charleston WV forms after four men are laid off for backing signatures on a union. They demand reinstatement, explain harsh labor conditions, and appeal to public support while denying plans to disrupt service or involve violence. The group asserts workers' right to organize and criticizes management for refusing to meet, stressing their aim is fair treatment and safer conditions.
