Abstract:
Records of the New York office of an international association of labor unions. The organization, formed in 1949, is concerned with the influence of communist unions in economically underdeveloped nations in Africa, Asia, and Latin America, and has consultative status to the United Nations and its specialized agencies. The records reflect the New York office's activities of informing and influencing the United Nations on worldwide issues such as racism, unionism, workers' rights, economic development, and trade. The materials in the collection include correspondence, telegrams, reports, texts of statements, United Nations documents, and newspaper clippings.
