Fred W. Suitor

Fred W. Suitor (1879 – May 10, 1934) was an American labor leader and politician from Vermont.

Suitor was a leader in the Quarry Workers' International Union of North America.

In politics, Suitor was a member of the Socialist Party of America, which distinguished him from some other high-ranking labor leaders who were often opposed to socialism.

A major challenge Suitor confronted as mayor was the onset of the Great Depression.

In response to the economic downturn, he proposed and voters approved a $50,000 bond to be used to improve infrastructure and keep local men working.
