William Green of the AFL urged Congress to provide at least one billion dollars for relief and to launch a large public works program. He pressed six hour days, five day weeks, higher wages to restore buying power, unemployment insurance, mortgage relief, and federal backing for schools.

Public schools, he warned, are collapsing across the nation with closures, unpaid teaching, and rising tuition.
