Interview: Mr. Willard Carl Becker, September 28, 1982

The Burlington Railroad Strike records were collected by the donor in the course of his Ph.D. dissertation research. The records from the Burlington Railroad were donated to Mr. Flynn by a company official. These records include special agent reports, legal documents, and correspondence. The Burlington Railroad Strike records also consist of oral history interview transcriptions that the donor conducted during his research. James R. Flynn completed his dissertation entitled, "The Railroad Shopmen's Strike of 1922 on the Industry, Company, and Community Levels" in July 1993. Copies of the dissertation may be found in Founders Memorial Library, the History Department, and the Regional History Center.
