TLS as president, one page, 6.5 x 9, White House letterhead, May 24, 1962. Letter to Secretary of Labor Arthur Goldberg. In full: “I am most gratified to learn more of the progress of the Employee-Management Relations Program, Executive Order 10988 on Employee-Management Cooperation in the Federal Service is an essential part of our effort to bring new vigor and creativity to public service. I appreciate that in any new program such as this one there will be problems of adjustment and transition that must be made. I am confident that they can be resolved satisfactorily and that progress will continue to be achieved in establishing the best possible relationship between the Federal Government and its employees.” Double matted and framed to an overall size of 18.75 x 14.5. Executive Order 10988, issued in January 1962, established a labor management program for federal executive branch employees, and granted bargaining rights to federal employees. The order contained provisions for the formal recognition of unions, an official status previously denied in the federal service. The pace of organizing among all public sector unions subsequently accelerated. In fine condition. JSA/John Reznikoff Auction LOA and RRAuction COA.
