Government Under Pressure (Classic Reprint) - Hardcover

Excerpt from Government Under Pressure

The decisive part played by the American Federation of Labor (a. F. Of L.) in getting laws guaranteeing labor's right to collective bargaining is equally well known. The Chamber of Commerce of the United States supplied basic ideas for the 1933 recovery legislation. The familiar catch phrase of recent years, What helps business helps you, was conceived by the National Association of Manufacturers and by it was broadcast throughout the country by radio, newspaper, and billboard advertising. It appears to have had much to do with the repeal in 1939 of the legislation taxing undistributed corporate profits.
