Well, I'm not Leo, but I think I know the answer to your question.   The 
paper used for the letter had one of two different water marks  which indicated 
"yes" or "no."
 
I have an old book titled "Railroad Avenue" by Freeman Hubbard.  An  
anthology of railroad short stories, it was published in 1945.  It  contains a 
story 
titled "The Crane with the Broken Neck."  I haven't read  the story in years, 
but IIRC it involves union members who participated in a  strike.  They got 
service letters with a water mark of a crane with a  broken neck.  If they were 
not strikers, their letter had a water mark of a  crane with a normal long neck.
 
The book doesn't give the author of that particular story.
 
Now I have to get the book out and read it again after all these  years.
