Holder speaks extensively of the problems of settlers in the early 1900s. He summarizes the activities of the Farmers' Unity League in the 1930s. He discusses cultural activities in the settler community of Dorion (which had a large East Coast population). He speaks extensively about Harry Bryan, one of the most important union organizers of the time. In respect to Depression years hardships, he sought publicity and were able to get Toronto Star to feature an article on Dorion. The Government of Ontario was prompted to investigate and, as a result, Dorion was able to obtain relief work. <120mn>Language:EnglishNotes:Detailed holdings information: -
