The workers assemblies and councils were organizing to take over production and thwart the capitalists who were sabotaging the economy. The US and AFL-CIO financed strike at the mines and also a trucker's strike which was controlled by the truck owners and paid for by the CIA through the AFL-CIO American Institute Of Free Labor Development AIFLD.
