double's Prairie's Wade and Dotty are shadows of Sasha and Hub),  then

"The war changed everything. The deal was, no strikes for the duration.
Lot of us thought it was some last desperate capitalist maneuver, a way
to get the Nation mobilized under a Leader, no different than Hitler or
Stalin.  But at the same time, so many of us really loved FDR. I got so
distracted I quit working for a while even though there were all these
incredible jobs everywhere, just 'cause I had to try to think it
through.  You can imagine how much help I got."

In the United States the trade union movement has passed through the
most stormy history in recent years. The rise of the CIO is
incontrovertible evidence of the revolutionary 
tendencies within the working masses.
Indicative and noteworthy in the highest degree, 
however, is the fact that the new
“leftist” trade union organization was no sooner 
founded than it fell into the steel embrace
of the imperialist state. The struggle among the tops between the old
federation and the new is reducible in large measure to the struggle for
the sympathy and support of Roosevelt and his cabinet.
