The March 28, 1958, New York Times quoted Walter Reuther, president of the United Automobile Workers, as saying:
“We don’t believe in the class struggle. The labor movement in America has never believed in the class struggle.”
By the end of the year, more automobile workers had been out on strike than in any other year in the history of the union. Moreover, for the first time in a single year, strikes included all the Big Three – Chrysler, Ford and General Motors.
