1. I remember the ILGWU labels, AND the song
It is sad so many unions are now defunct.

2. Ah, yes! Maybe some savvy DU wordsmith can rework the lyrics:
Edited on Fri Apr-01-11 09:34 AM by blondeatlast
Look for the union laaa-bel
When you are buying a coat, dress, or blouse
Remember somewhere, the union's sewing
Our wages gooo-ing
To feed the kids or keep up the house

We wooork hard,
But we don't mind it
Through the union
We're paying our waaaay!
So always look for
The union laaa-bel
It says we're aaable
To make it in the USA!

(from memory--I may have some misheard lyrics in there!)

:patriot:
