Jack Jones (trade unionist)
James Larkin Jones (29 March 1913 – 21 April 2009), known as Jack Jones, was a British trade union leader and General Secretary of the Transport and General Workers' Union.
==Early life==
Jones was born in Garston, Liverpool, Lancashire. He was named after the Liverpool-born Irish trade unionist James Larkin. He left school at 14 and worked as an engineering apprentice. After the Wall Street Crash, Jones lost his job, eventually finding employment with a firm of signmakers and painters. He then joined his father as a Liverpool docker.
Jack Jones was converted to socialism by reading ''The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists'' by Robert Tressell, and he later explained how the book "was passed from hand to hand among people in the Labour movement and had a remarkable effect on our thinking".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jack Jones biography )〕 He became a member of the Transport and General Workers Union, and was elected shop steward, then a delegate on the National Docks Group Committee.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jack Jones )〕
