  • Caption on the back of the photograph reads, “The National Alliance of Businessmen (NAB) is concerned with finding jobs in business and industry for the disadvantaged. In 1973, Robert Dickey III was chairman of Pittsburgh NAB. In that year NAB found jobs for more than 4,3000 disadvantaged, surpassing the goal by 159 percent. Pittsburgh NAB is particularly proud of the high employee retention rate, more than 60 percent, enjoyed by the program here—one of the highest in the nation."
