text:
Henri Berckmans was a Belgian trade union leader. Berckmans became a wood engraver, and by the 1910s, he was the secretary of the Union of Wood Engravers of Brussels. In 1913, he merged the union into the new Central Union of Workers in Lithography and Kindred Trades. The union's leader, François Poels, was seconded to government work during World War I, so Berckmans became acting general secretary. He took the position permanently in 1919, also becoming editor of the union's journal, De Arbeide
