Transcription
Dick Moore: Ok now I’ll tell you about ITU which stands for the International Typographic Union. The ITU, members of the ITU, helped big printing companies to take care of their employees and with operations. People who had an ITU card and those with a travel card could walk in and work. I could walk in and work that night. There was no doubt or no one said yes or no. It didn’t matter, they would welcome me. I came right in and I got to work. Then I had three days, then I had to take the Dupe. The test would measure how good of a job you could do quickly and accurately. I passed, I stayed, and worked at the Washington Post for 27 years.
