Records of a local union of street car employees in Wheeling, West Virginia. There are minute books, correspondence, contracts,
agreements, boards of arbitration hearings, and financial records, including membership figures and lists of members from
the founding of the local to the late 1950s. The correspondence concerns mainly intra-union issues of seniority, transfers
of membership, and local union governance, but there are also a few letters about Division 103's support of other organized
workers and about the American labor movement. The records also include one folder of legal documents submitted to the Interstate
Commerce Commission for consideration in its drafting of safety regulations for motor carriers. There is also an addendum
[2010 February 03] of a copy of the March 1918 issue of "The Motorman and Conductor," a publication of this union.
