In April, 1906, Chicago Aeronauts were said to have nearly completed the organization of a labor union to be known as the United Brotherhood of Aeronauts, Local No. 1. It was to be affiliated with the Chicago Federation of Labor and the final organization was to occur on 17 April.
Robert Witt was one of the union's promoters. It was thought that the trade of the so-called "explorers of the atmosphere" might bring work to the proposed union coffin factory.
