Merger talks between the Oil Workers International Union (OWIU) and the smaller United Gas, Coke, and Chemical Workers International Union (UGCCW) began during the spring of 1954. The Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) had chartered the UGCCW in 1942 after a group of local unions, opposing the decision of the United Mine Workers of America (UMWA) to leave the CIO, withdrew from UMWA District 50. An undisciplined and loosely organized union, the UGCCW, which was composed predominantly of low-wage workers living in the eastern states, experienced constant financial stringencies and probably would not have survived without CIO assistance. Like other unions in the petroleum and chemical industries, leaders of the UGCCW encountered great resistance in the effort to organize workers within their jurisdiction. Organizing failures resulted primarily from the effective anti-union tactics of the huge corporations that dominated the industry, but the trade unions themselves further exacerbated the problem through expensive and distracting rivalries that disrupted organizing drives and weakened the union position during collective bargaining negotiations. Consequently most UGCCW leaders were pleased to hear OWIU president O.A. Knight tell the delegates to the 1950 OWIU national convention:

I think at this time...it behooves us to extend an invitation...to the Gas, Coke, and Chemical Union, which is so closely related to ours that you can't tell where their stops and our starts,.l..to sit down with us and plan for a united movement in the oil and chemical industry in America.

The first step toward greater unity came in 1951 with the organization of the National Coalition of Oil Unions, a collective bargaining unit that included many independents as well as the OWIU and the UGCCW. Finally, in the late winter of 1955 the two organizations agreed to a merger, creating the Oil, Chemical and Atomic Workers International Union. Clearly the OWIU was the senior partner in the merger, and its president, O.A. Knight headed the new union. The UGCCW, which held annual conventions, maintained its international headquarters in Washington, D.C. Full-time officers included a president, vice-president, and secretary-treasurer. The executive council was composed of the full-time officers and members elected from eleven geographical districts. At the time of the OCAW merger, the UGCCW paid per-capita taxes to the CIO on 72,000 members. During the remaining years of the 1950s, leaders of the OCAW devoted much of their attention to problems emanating from the merger. Both unions had long traditions of rank-and-file participation in decision making, and while the OWIU had gone further toward centralizing authority, advocates of local autonomy in both unions jealously guarded their prerogatives. While a healthy and desirable condition, this state of affairs complicated the resolution of the inevitable administrative problems following the merger. Disagreements erupted over dues payments, the degree of power to be exercised by the president, collective bargaining policies, procedures for authorizing strikes, representation at conventions, and the election of officers. Although compromises were arranged on most issues, in general terms the positions of the larger OWIU usually predominated. The merger eliminated existing or potential jurisdictional problems between the OWIU and the UGCCW, but it did not provide the expected organizing gains or improve the collective bargaining positions anticipated by its sponsors. The OCAW steadily added new members but lost almost as many to technological changes, new production methods, craft reclassification, and rival unions. As a result membership fluctuated by has remained fairly constant since 1957. Moreover, the merger movement initiated by the OWIU in 1950 stalled after the formation of the OCAW in 1955. Merger talks with the International Chemical Workers Union collapsed,. and although a few unaffiliated unions joined, most remained independent or merged with other unions. The OCAW, which holds biennial conventions, maintains its international headquarters in Denver, Colorado. Principal officers include a president, two vice-presidents, and a secretary- treasurer. The executive board consist of sixteen rank-and-file members. In 1973 the OCAW reported a membership of 172,000 in 596 locals.

SCOPE AND CONTENT

The Oil, Chemical, and Atomic Workers Union Papers document many of the union's activities from 1928 to 1982. The collection contains information of many of the union's day to day business and special activities. Most information, however, concerns activities in the 1950's and early 1960's. Topics include contracts, convention material, correspondence, departmental matters, financial records, grievances filed, job descriptions, information on the King-Thompson Act, copies of the Laclede News, information on various St. Louis OCAW locals, meeting minutes, membership information, negotiations, pamphlets, publications, reports, information on St. Louis County Gas Company, subject files, and photographs.

Two series comprise the largest part of the collection--contracts and negotiations. Contracts can be found for several locals, but most information concerns local number 6. Because several different locals are represented, the information available is somewhat sketchy. The contracts found under that specific heading are final drafts. Preliminary drafts can be found in the negotiations series. The information found in negotiations complements the contractual information. Union proposals, company proposals, counter proposals, wage disputes, debates over specific clauses, and comparable contracts can all be found in this series. Again, however, several union locals are represented. Often, two or more locals negotiated jointly. This information is perhaps more helpful, but more difficult if one is searching for information concerning a specific local.

The final labor agreements can also be found in the pamphlet series. These agreements were published for each member of the union. The information contained in the negotiations, contracts, and pamphlets provide a complete view of the union's dealings with the gas company.

The pamphlet series also includes various pamphlets concerning Laclede Gas Company. There are also several By-Laws and Constitutions for several years in this collection. The information is very incomplete because some locals are not represented at all, while others have only a few pamphlets for widely spaced years.

Besides information in negotiations and contracts, the local series has information on specific locals. Much of this information concerns individuals and concerns of specific locals. The information is most helpful if used in conjunction with other series.

The financial records, St. Louis County, membership, and meeting minutes series all contain information concerning all St. Louis local involved with Laclede Gas Company. Lists of members for various years can be found in these series. Court litigation involving OCAW can also be found here. Dues, fees, and fine information for certain years are in the financial records. The financial records are not only relatively complete, but the death benefit fund also provides a record of deaths of union members. In addition to these records, the financial ledgers yield listings of financial matters and members for specific years in the 1950s.

The grievance and department series are both divided up according to department. Both of these series contain material primarily from the 1950s. There is no way of gauging just how complete the grievance records are because no list is available. The department information is sketchy and pertains to specific problems or issues within a specific department.

Three series have very little information to offer. There are only three folders in the job descriptions series, and only the SAID and meter reading departments are represented. The publications series consists of The Daily Strike Bulletin and a few newspaper articles concerning the 1948 strike. The subject files cover an extensive array of topics, but each file contains only a small amount of information. These three series are of very limited help to the researcher. For more information on strikes, it is necessary to also look in the scrapbook series which consists of newspaper clippings concerning strikes and negotiations between OCAW and Laclede Gas Company.

The King-Thompson material is fairly complete and wide-ranging. This series contains most everything pertaining to the OCAW attempt to repeal the act. Also included within the collection is soundscriber phonograph discs of the debates in the Missouri legislature.

Laclede Gas Company published a monthly newsletter called Laclede News. Some issues are missing. The copies which are missing, however, can be found in the microfilm series which is a complete copy of the Laclede News from 1935 to 1973.

The correspondence in this collection is filed according to department and individual. The information contained here is not very complete, but it does help the researcher to follow the activities of the individual or department. To gain a more complete picture, this series should be used in conjunction with others.

The reports series is a good record of daily union activities. The information can be complemented by cross-referencing with other series. Unfortunately, only a few years are complete--1951, 1952, and 1954. This series also contains reports given by William LaVelle who was financial secretary in the 1950's.

The convention series contains information on OCAW national conventions held on the following years--1947, 1948, 1950, 1954, and 1955. Obviously, there are gaps in the information available. The years which are covered, however, contain fairly complete information.
