Letters between Samuel Gompers, President of the American Federation of Labor (AFL), and President Coolidge and others, touching on government's role in the working conditions of American labor. Topics include women in the workplace; the efficiency work of engineer Frederick Winslow Taylor; AFL support for Senator Robert M. La Follette of Wisconsin as an independent candidate in the 1924 presidential campaign; the arrival of William Green as the new president of the AFL after Gompers's death in 1924; invitations to top union officers to visit at White Pine Camp, New York, site of the 1926 Summer White House; and a September 25, 1924, press release that compares President Coolidge's views on "Americanism" to those espoused earlier that month at a Ku Klux Klan rally.
