Despite this trust, however, which stood out in strong contrast to the A. F. of L.'s antagonism toward employers, scarcely any of the workers chose not to be represented by a union. It is no longer fashionable to be at the mercy of even a benevolent employer.

...retractable tricycle landing gear, with a large wheel in the nose. Thanks to this forward wheel, DC-4 will always be in flying position, horizontal, tail up. No tail skid is necessary because the tail will never be near the ground. Passengers in sleeper planes will no longer be wakened by the rearward slant at each landing. The plane can take off relatively quickly, can "fly into" a landing.
