In 1940, it absorbed several locals representing paper industry workers, and was renamed as the United Paper, Novelty and Toy Workers' International Union. On January 1, 1944, its paper workers' section was spun off as the Paper Workers' Organizing Committee, and the remainder of the union became the PJNWIU.
