Therefore it is necessary that the individual workman worker have full freedom of association, self-organization, and the designation of representatives of his the worker's own choosing, to negotiate the terms and conditions of his the worker's employment, and that he the worker shall be free from the interference, restraint or coercion of employers of labor, or their agents, in the designation of such representatives or in self-organization or in other concerted activities for the purpose of collective bargaining or other mutual aid or protection.
