“When it became apparent that the German government was determined to absolutely destroy the trade union movement in that country, the American Federation of Labor in convention assembled in 1933 declared a boycott against German made goods and German service, such boycott to continue until such time as the German government recognized the right of the working people of Germany to organize in bona fide trade unions of their own choosing and until Germany ceased its policy of persecution of Jewish people, merely because of their religious beliefs.
Subsequent events which have transpired in Germany and in Austria have fully justified the position taken by the American Federation of Labor in 1933 and reaffirmed in 1934” (from the foreword).
The "Chest for Liberation of Workers of Europe" was an American organization formed in the 1930s to oppose European fascism and support labor victims of dictatorships. Led by prominent labor leaders, including American Federation of Labor president William Green, its activities involved educating the public about the dangers of Nazism and Fascism, organizing boycotts against goods from Nazi Germany, and fundraising to aid European labor movements.
