Readers Write: When is a Wobblie a Wobbly?(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)"Check your spelling on Wobblie,” wrote Saul Schniderman (AFSCME 2910,  Library of Congress Professional Guild), responding to an item in Tuesday’s "Today's Labor History." “We stand corrected in a recent item referring to Helen Gurley Flynn, an organizer for the Industrial Workers of the World,” says David Prosten, the daily labor history creator at unionist.com. “We identified her as a Wobblie, when in fact she was a Wobbly. It’s an individual Wobbly vs. a union hall full of Wobblies. Got it? Thanks, Saul.”
