...angry old leaders who were drawing up resolutions in Tampa. The other was symbolic of a different kind of fist-shaking undertaken by the C. I. O. leaders in Washington. There John L. Lewis had around him some of the shrewdest of Labor's brains. Among them is Sidney Hillman, head of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers. Among them also is David Dubinsky, whose enthusiasm for the C. I.

It was years before the partners even knew him by name. By his own account he got ahead by being "such a fresh kid." During the War he was cook on a submarine chaser, until yanked into the Navy's Intelligence Department. Brilliant, blunt, energetic, he takes vast interest in the affairs of any company in which he is a director. Occasionally at board meetings he pulls...
...Sidney Weinberg's ability as a director belongs most of the credit for preserving Goldman Sachs's invaluable corporate connections, not the least of which was Sears, Roebuck.
