Seventy students from 24 countries were graduated today from the Histadrut-sponsored Afro-Asian Institute.
The second class, which will begin in May, has an enrollment of 600 students, the present maximum capacity of the institute. Institute officials said some changes would be made in the second course on the basis of information gained from the first one.
It was learned that the Afro-Asian students were most interested in leaning the practical aspects of trade union and cooperative organization and management. The American Federation of Labor-Congress of Industrial Organizations is contributing to the maintenance of the institute.
