Audio recording of television program presented by the United Steelworkers in Ontario. Interview with Bob Carlin, former International Union of Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers representative in Kirkland Lake and in the 1942 organizing campaign in Sudbury, and CCF MPP for Sudbury from 1943 to 1948, about his pamphlet "I Know Mine Mill - Do You?". Carlin is questioned by three voluntary Steel organizers: Tom Hanaway, a millman at Copper Cliff with Inco for 18 years; Bill Zema, whose father was a founding member of Local 598, a machinist at Creighton mine with Inco for 13 years; and Harry Murdoch, with Inco for 20 years. All were long-time Mine Mill members. Carlin talks about his early membership in Mine Mill in 1919 and compares the exodus from Mine Mill to the One Big Union in 1919 to the current situation in Sudbury. He says it was the USWA that paid for Mine Mill's office and organizer Jack Whelahan's salary in 1942. Carlin blames Mine Mill National Vice-President, Harvey Murphy, and Secretary-Treasurer, Bill Longridge, for divisions between Mine Mill and Steel/Canadian Labour Congress. He urges the "old-timers" to leave Mine Mill as he urged them to leave the Inco-established United Copper Nickel Workers (dubbed the Nickel Rash) in 1942.
