Title A name given to the resource CIO Broadside Description An account of the resource Probably circulated during an unsuccessful unionizing drive at the Perry Knitting Co. in 1937, this flyer is addressed not only to employees but the larger Perry community. The Textile Workers Organizing Committee ask, rhetorically, why the Perry Chamber of Commerce suddenly has the workers' welfare in mind. It reminds its reader that labor organization is a right, that others will benefit from better working standards, and that the CIO will help protect workers' jobs. This last point was an especially charged issue, for employees sometimes were laid off without notice when business was slow, and management warned that unionization might lead to the company closing its doors.

The Textile Workers Organizing Committee met considerable resistance from company management and some employees, who staged a "Loyalty Parade" against unionization. The text of this flyer reminds the company that "interference with union organization is illegal under U.S. code," going on to cite the relevant statute under the Nation Labor Relations Act. Even during the comparatively progressive 1930s, however, enforcing the law proved difficult and ultimately the PKC employees voted against organizing.
