Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bulletin of the Bureau of Labor, 1907, Vol. 15 Some idea of the high prices of 1906 can be gained when it is seen that the average prices of 17 of the 30 articles Were higher in 1906 than in any other year of the seventeen-year period 1890 to 1906. Compared with prices in 1896, the year of lowest prices during the period, the price of every article, except coffee and prunes, was higher in 1906 than in 1896, and in the case of 12 of the 30 articles it was more than 25 per cent above the level of 1896. The increases in the price of some of the more important articles over the 1896 prices were as follows: Bacon, per cent; potatoes, per cent; fresh pork, per cent; lard, per cent, and chickens, per cent. The average price in 1906 for each of the 30 articles separately and as a whole is compared with the average price during each of the years from 1890 to 1905 in the following table which shows the per cent of increase or decrease.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bulletin of the Bureau of Labor, Vol. 54: September, 1904 One of the most important features in the industrial life of the last decade has been the rapid development on the part of both large and small employers of labor of a growing interest in the welfare of their employees. It has been recognized more and more fully that the establishing of cordial relations between employers and employees invariably results in a greater industrial efficiency on the part of the workman, and in a great measure obviates the costly and sometimes destructive industrial disturbances which have been so unfortunately frequent during the past twenty years. Interest and confidence on the one hand have developed in the workman a livelier and more intelligent regard for the welfare of the business of his employer, while on the other hand they have prompted a frank, rational, and more unselfish discussion of all the various causes which have been so productive of strikes and lockouts, and thus have frequently given rise to a spirit of mutual concession so necessary to an equitable and peaceful adjust ment of these industrial disputes which have proved not only harmful to the business of the employer but injurious to the comfort and wel fare of the employee. These measures for the betterment of the condition of the workman have taken a great variety of forms, and have been directed not only to his improvement industrially and financially, but also in a physical, social, intellectual, moral, and domestic way. Special efforts in one or more of the above directions have been put forth from time to time by a rapidly increasing number of employers. The establishing by employers of industrial schools has furnished workmen with a surer basis for the exercise of the knowledge gained by practical work in their various occupations and has given them the means of rising more rapidly in the industrial scale by the taking up of more skillful and more highly paid occupations, while the establish ment of manual-training classes or schools has given the children of the workman the opportunity of gaining early in life not only a degree of knowledge of the simpler elements of mechanical work, but also a manual facility with various tools that better fits them for entrance into active work in the industrial world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bulletin of the Bureau of Labor, Vol. 51: March, 1904 In Bulletin N o. 39, the issue for March, 1902, data relating to wholesale prices for the period from 1890 to 1901 were presented, and in Bulletin No. 45, the issue for March, 1903, this compilation was con tinned for the year 1902. In this Bulletin are presented the actual prices for 1903, and the relative prices for the fourteen years from 1890 to 1903. As was explained in Bulletin No. 45, changes in the actual prices of single commodities may readily be seen by the inspection of a series of quotations covering a number of years, but in order to ascertain the changes in the general price level from year to year, the quotations for a number of commodities of a more or less dis similar character must be examined and in some manner combined. The method quite generally adopted for this purpose by statisticians and economists is the use of what is commonly known as the index number or relative price. Before proceeding to the discussion of the data which enter into the present record, it seems desirable to define the index number or relative price, and explain the various methods adopted in securing the same.
