other productive enterprises have
been entered into by trade unions
and trade unionists on a cooperative
basis.
Importance of Education.
Education has always been regard.
ed by the American Federation of
Labor on the basis of a permanent
and responsible growth of the trade
union movement, Education is, indeed,
an integral part of the trades unions.
Historically the interest of the
American Federation of Labor dates
back to the championship of our free
public school system. Perhaps no
other influence contributed more to
the Development of our free public
school system. These educational in
stitutions have ever been under the
most vigorous scrutiny of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor. The inter
est of the trade unions relates not
alone to the interests of the students,
but includes that Of the teachers and
professors. The activities Of the
American Federation of Labor cover
the grammar and higher schools, as
well as colleges and universities and
embrace text books, studies, classes
etc.
