              <text>Ed Dailey grew up in Youngstown, OH during the depression. After working in a series of odd jobs Dailey found steady work with the Street Department of the city of Youngstown in 1934. Dailey formed an unofficial group with the other truck drivers and after the group gained some recognition they formed a civil service employees association and began organizing with other city departments.  Dailey recalls that as the group grew in numbers he was referred to Mike Leiden, president of the Central Labor Council and president of the Ohio Federation of Labor, for guidance with the expansion. Dailey and Leiden got in contact with the AF of L and soon the Youngstown group voted to become part of the AFSCME.  Dailey became president of the newly formed Local 288 and soon became fulltime staff at the AFSCME. This interview covers Dailey’s involvement up to the early 1960’s.</text>
