Boot and Shoe Workers' Union
Affiiliated with the American Federation of Labor.
Organized in Boston, Mass., April 10,1895. The first union of shoe workers to achieve any degree of permanency was the Federal Society of Journeymen Cordwainers, which originated in Philadelphia in 1794 and figured in the famous conspiracy trial of 180G. The initial step toward national organization occurred in October 1835, when a convention was held in New York City which founded the National Cooperative Association of Journeymen Cordwainers. This organization, of course, was composed of skilled hand workers.
The introduction of shoemakiiig machinery brought about the formation of the Knights of St. Crispin, a national organization which undertook to regulate the use of machinery. This organization flourished remarkably for several years and instituted in 1868 the Daughters of St. Crispin, the first national trade organization of women in the country. One of its organizing slogans was "Equal pay for equal help." The decline of the Knights of St. Crispin and the rise of the Knights of Labor were coincidental, and the shoe workers became a strong factor in the Knights of Labor. By taking

women into membership in their Knights of Labor assemblies they forced a change in the constitution of the Order of the Knights of Labor to include women workers on the same basis as men.
Local and district assemblies within the Knights of Labor multiplied so greatly that the shoe workers were granted the right to form a national trade assembly. This was accomplished in 1884. Not all the shoe-workers' locals in the Knights of Labor joined the National Trade Assembly of Shoe Workers, however. In the conflict with the order which followed an attempt to force them to do so, the National Trade Assembly withdrew from the Knights of Labor and formed the Boot and Shoe Workers' International Union, under the banner of the American Federation of Labor.
In the American Federation of Labor at the time there was another union of shoe workers, founded in Lynn in 1879, known as the Lasters' Protective Union. In 1895 the two old organizations, together with the local organization which had remained with the Knights of Labor and eight entirely independent local unions, met in Boston and amalgamated under the name of the Boot and Shoe Workers' Union. The new organization was at once chartered by the American Federation of Labor as an affiliated union.
Objects.—"The purpose of this organization is to organize all shoe workers in North America into one trade-union, affiliated with the legitimate and recognized trade-union movement of the United States, Canada, and the world. We declare against-all divided or opposition organizations of wage earners of the same craft as opposed to true interests of labor and destructive of success to the labor cause. We invite all shoe workers to unite with us to the end that we may more effectively regulate wages and conditions of employment; control apprentices; reduce the hours of labor; abolish convict contract labor; prohibit the employment of children under the age of 16; promote the use of our union stamp and all other union labels; assist and support all other legitimate tradeunions to the full extent of our power; and to take such further action in promoting the interests of shoe workers or other wage earners as may seem desirable from time to time, keeping pace with industrial development."
