Check out the ten planks of the Comm. Manifesto
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
10. Free education for all children in government schools. Abolition of children's factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production, etc. etc.
IMO, the most critical plank was advocating a central ala the Fed'l Reserve to control the creation of money.......vs. the Const. which gave that power to Congress.
