    U.S. Secretary of Labor Elaine L. Chao Announces 2004 Labor Hall of Fame Inductees U.S. Newswire
    U.S. Secretary of Labor Elaine L. Chao today inducted the founder of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America and a founder of Labor Day, the late Peter J. McGuire, and the four founders of the Harley-Davidson Motor Company -- the late William S. Harley, Arthur Davidson, Walter Davidson and William A. Davidson - into the Labor Hall of Fame during the 16th Annual Labor Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony.

    "These men were visionaries and risk-takers whose enormous achievements reverberate a century after their pioneering work," said U.S. Secretary of Labor Elaine L. Chao. "William Harley's and the Davidsons' ingenuity and initiative created a cultural icon, a job engine in America and motorcycles revered by millions worldwide. Peter McGuire's leadership in the labor movement began in his teens and his contributions are widely recognized every Labor Day."
