There are three forms iu which the
trade union label, using the term iu its
widest seuse, is used—first, a mark at
tached to a product; second, a shop
card to distinguish a place of business,
and. third, a button to distinguish a
workman The majority of trade un
ions use the label only as a mark
placed on uu urtlcle, and ordinarily
the term ‘’union label” Indicates this
form of label.
In 19US the membership of the trade
unions using the labels attached to the
product was 558,600. or approximately
27.9 per cent of the entire membership
of the American Federation of Labor.
Those unions which use cards and
buttons embraced approximately 309,-
600, or 18.8 per cent of the number of
workmen affiliated with the American
Federation of Labor. There are still
other trade unions which use the label
of the American Federation of Labor
either because of the weakness of
their organization or because their
products are “subsidiary” to a com- 1
píete product.
Some trade unions are precluded ,
from the adoption of n label because
of the nature of the craft. The gran
ite’cutters and stone masons, for ex
ample, cannot use a label upon the
stone because it could be readily re
moved and the employers refuse to
allow any design to be cut in the
stone. The glass bottle blowers haw?
the same difficulty.
Three factors enter into the determi
nation of the efficacy of any form of
trade union label—publicity of the
label, the nature of the material of
which the label is made and the de-
sires of the purchaser.
The label must be sufficiently prom
inent to be readily observed, yet the
character of the product to which the
label is attached influences the meth
od of attachment to be adopted. Cigars
might have the label on the box or
even on the individual cigars, if the
cost were not too great. But hats aud
clothing must have an attachment of
the label which preserves reasonable
publicity without giving offense to a
seuse of propriety.
The form of label adopted by the
hatters illustrates the influence of these
factors very well, it Is attached to the
