Review: Labor Movement II
Explanation
This question asks about the key view attributed to the
AFL by this passage: the idea that they, drawing on Gompers, were "reluctant to
take steps that might instigate government counteraction." So we want a point
indicating that the AFL was right not to be more aggressive. Choice (A) fits
that idea. Choice (B) seems to fit it equally well, at first. Looking back at
the exact language, note that view in question involves "government
counteraction," which excludes (B). Choices (C) through (E) are out on similar
grounds.
The correct answer is (A).
