Abraham Feinglass--labor union officer, leftwing political activist, and a leader in civil rights and peace movements--was born in Kishinev, Bessarabia, on April 20, 1910. He immigrated to the United States in 1921 with his family, which included his parents, Morris and Anna, and an older brother and sister, Isadore and Beatrice, all of whom had also been born in Russia. The family became residents of Chicago where Morris Feinglass found a job as a tailor for Hart, Shaffner and Marx; he remained in their employment until he retired in 1951.
The entire Feinglass family was active in the labor movement. Early in his work career, Morris Feinglass joined in a strike which led to the formation f the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America. He continued to be an active member of this union, served as chairman in his shop, and was a member of the executive board of Local 14.
Morris Feinglass died in 1966 at the age of 84. Isadore and Beatrice, as well as Abraham, also were staunch supporters of unionism and were active in the ACWU. Isadore graduated from the Kent College of Law and served as attorney for the Leather and Luggage Division of the Amalgamated Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen of North America until he died on January 1, 1969.
Abraham Feinglass was employed as a fur worker in Chicago while also completing the course of study at Marshall High School and attending Crane College in the evening. He became an active member of the Chicago Fur Workers Union, which had been chartered in 1913 as Local 45 of the newly established International Fur Workers Union (I.F.W.U.). In the late 1920s there was an intense factional struggle in the union from which Feinglass emerged as the leader of a rank and file group advocating clean unionism, democracy and militancy. At a convention of the I.F.W.U. in 1932 the leaders of the rank and file faction were expelled, and this led to the formation of the Fur Division of the Needle Trades Union with Feinglass as Manager. In 1935 this group was reunited with the I.F.W.U. and Feinglass was elected Business Agent and later, Manager. After merger of the National Leather Workers Union with the I.F.W.U. in 1937, Feinglass became vice president and Midwest district Director of the International Fur and Leather Workers’ Union (I.F.LW.U.) and led vigorous drives to organize the fur industry and improve wages and working conditions.
In the late 1930s the fur industry began to change significantly. Popular priced furs lost their position in the market, and wholesale manufacturing began to disappear. Few new workers entered the industry, older workers retired, and membership in the union declined. When Feinglass was elected president of the I.F.L.W.U. in 1954 he vigorously supported a proposal for merger with the Amalgamated Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen of North America, AFL-CIO. After the merger was accomplished in 1956, he became international vice president of the amalgamated union and director of its Fur and Leather Department. When the amalgamated union and the Retail Clerks International Union were merged in 1979 and became the United Food and Commercial Workers Union, he retained his position and continued to serve in this capacity until his retirement in July of 1980.
Throughout his career Abe Feinglass espoused progressive and liberal causes, and was recognized internationally as a vigorous and effective spokesman for civil rights, free trade unionism, and world peace. He chaired the International Civil Rights Committee of Amalgamated Meat Cutters, served as a member of the General Assembly of the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions, and took leadership roles in a number of related organizations. He was a member of the Commission of Inquiry into the Status of Human Rights in Chile, which was created in 1974, and upon the return of a delegation from Chile, he presented testimony to a U.S. congressional committee. In the late 1970s he devoted many speeches and writings to issues of civil rights in Latin America.
Feinglass was also a leading supporter of Histradut and the organized labor movement in Israel. He was on the board of directors of the National Committee for Labor Israel, and co-chairman of the executive committee of the Chicago Trade Union Council for Histradut. His leadership was publicly recognized by the dedication of the Abe Feinglass Cultural Center in the city of Aradim, Israel, in 1966, and by the establishment of a medical project in his honor in one of the Histradut’s Kupat Holim Institutions in 1979.
Feinglass participated actively in numerous international and national organizations and conferences concerned with disarmament and world peace. He addressed these issues frequently and was outspoken in his opposition to the Viet Nam War He was a member of the National Committee of Labor for Peace, and in the late 1970s he served as vice president of the World Peace Council.
Abe Feinglass held leadership positions in organizations related to his concerns, including membership on the board of directors of the Wildlife Legislative Fund of America, co-chairperson of the National Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression, and membership on the board of directors of the George and Ann Portes Cancer Prevention Center of Chicago.
In 1934 Abe Feinglass was married to Bessie Chalfin, who was born in Rumania in 1907. They had three children, a daughter, Ruth, and two sons, Joseph and Robert. Bessie Feinglass, like Abe, was dedicated to the cause of organized labor. She helped to organize the International Ladies Garment Workers Union in the 1930s and she participated in the formation of the Coalition of Labor Union Women in Chicago in 1973. In 1980 the Chicago Chapter of the Coalition honored her for her work as a trade unionist in promoting the causes of labor and enhancing the role of women. With her husband, or as a delegate, she participated in a number of international conferences on human rights and world peace. Beginning in 1970, she served many years as a volunteer teacher in the Amalgamated Child Day Care and Health Center, sponsored by the Chicago Joint Board of Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America.
The Feinglass family maintained a residence in the Chicago area, although in the 1970s Abe’s responsibilities required that he spend some time in New York. Abe Feinglass died in September of 1981.
The papers of Abraham Feinglass date from 1937 to 1981 and consist of correspondence, memoranda, reports, published materials collected by Feinglass, speeches and articles written by him, a copy of an FBI personal file on Feinglass, and bound volumes of the Fur Worker and the Fur and Leather Worker, the trade union news organ of the International Fur and Leather Workers (which merged with the Amalgamated Union in 1954-55). The correspondence is both personal and business-related. It consists of letters from family and friends as well as correspondence generated by Feinglass in his related capacities as international vice president, director of the Fur and Leather Department, and Chairman of the Civil Rights Committee of the Amalgamated Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen of North America from 1955 to 1979.
Feinglass’s deep and continuous concern with human rights, disarmament and world peace, and his support for the organized labor movement in Israel, is evident throughout the collection, especially in the many speeches he delivered in the 1960s and 1970s and in articles he contributed regularly to the periodical publication of the Amalgamated Union, The Butcher Workman, Feinglass’s concern is also evident in the material from a study group in which he participated in 1974, the Chicago Commission of Inquiry into the Status of Human Rights in Chile. Among the papers there are also numerous newsletters from issue-oriented groups, and clippings from various publications dealing with civil rights and world peace. The personal file on Feinglass compiled by the F.B.I. and released in 1980 identifies his activities in the fur workers unions in Chicago in the 1930s and 1940s, and his relationship with leftwing groups including the Communist Party of the United States from 1931 to 1951.
The papers include some personal correspondence and writings of Bessie Feinglass who, like her husband Abe, was actively engaged in union activities and in the advocacy of civil rights and world peace.
