Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on Industrial Conditions Our system of government was diverted from its normal course of development by the accident of our civil war. And we have never returned to the line of natural and healthful evolution which we then abandoned. The habit of employ ing the powers of the general government for everything that could be accomplished by their instrumentality, which our people acquired during the war, prepared the way for an over-development of government and a vast over-produc tion of legislation during the period following the close of the struggle. This powerful impulse toward the abnormal extension of the powers of the national government was accompanied and re-enforced by a general decay and disso lution of the local communities. The energy of the town ship life before the war was not less moral and social than political in its manifestation. A vigorous and decisive pub.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Industrial Conflict: A Series of Chapters on Present-Day Conditions Real Conflict between Employer and Employed - Letters from Labour Leaders and Large Employers of Labour - Mutual Interest in Large and Cheap Production - Conflict Arising from Distribution of Product. For more than a hundred years writers in various countries have been discussing questions of labour, production, and distribution; but there still remains something to be said. What is needed is a statement in clear English of the essential facts and fundamental principles involved in the relations of employer and employed. We are in the midst of a time of great upheaval. Any day there may be actual conflict in particular trades, and every day there is potential conflict in all the trades. The literature of the subject may be divided into two general classes. One group of discussions, the more scientific in form and the more difficult of comprehension, considers how matters would go on if the actual working world were such a place as the theoretical economic world in which the writer lives.

Download or read book The Industrial Situation written by J. Schoenhof and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Industrial Situation: Question of Wages The nature of this work needs some explanation. When I wrote the first chapter I had merely the intention of criticising in the public press the misconceptions under which the great ques tions of the day were held by the political powers then in control of the machinery of government. Not alone did the government organs show an incomprehensible ignorance of the true elements of price-making in products, but the public press, the legislative authorities, the public speakers, showed the same absence of a correct understanding of the relations existing between the earn ings of the working classes in different countries and the prices of their product. The fact that the American laborer earns more than the European, is still taken as an indication of our inability to compete in neutral markets, or in our own markets, without the aid of an artificial device known as a protective tariff. In all these discussions it is usually overlooked that the labor-price by the piece is the only price, the only wage value, which concerns us. That the labor-price by the piece may be a relatively low one, while earnings are high, has seldom been brought out in the reports collected by our official informants. To all students of the productive processes prevailing in the different countries, and of the labor question in general, the facts relating thereto would have been the only valuable contribution the government's organs could have added to the literature of the day.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Conditions of Women's Labor in Louisiana: New Orleans and Louisiana Industrial Survey It may surprise the person unacquainted with Louisiana industry, even tho a resident of the city or state, to discover that the industrial problem is concerned almost entirely with white workers. At least 85 per cent of the women workers in this city (excluding domestics in homes) are white. Colored workers are found most frequently in laundries, the kitchens of hotels and restaurants, and a few miscellaneous shops such as nut and cotton pickeries. Even in these industries, however, they are generally outnumbered by the white workers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-10-23 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on the Industries of the United Provinces IN April 1907, the Government of the United Provinces deputed me to enquire into the condition of the local industries and the possibilities of their develop ment. A report based mainly on available written materials, printed and unprinted, supplemented in some cases by personal inquiries and observation, was submitted in the following July. This report was placed before the Industrial Conference that met at Naini Tal in the autumn of last year, and was at the same time communicated to the press. Since then, under the orders of the Government, I have pursued the inquiry by touring through all the industrial centres of the province. I have also had the advantage of going round the principal industrial towns of the Madras Presidency in the company of Mr. A. Chatterton, and have paid short visits to various places in Bengal, the Central Provinces, Western India, Rajputana and the Punjab. The preliminary report has been almost entirely rewritten. An account of the industrial condition and possibilities of the province is now published in the form of these Notes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industrial Goodwill A few years ago I visited the employment office in a factory of several thousand workers. Scattered about were a number of sturdy immigrants fresh from the old country. On that day the manager was hiring Swedes. He said that the week before he had been hiring Poles, and before that he had taken on Italians. It was a good idea, he said, to get them mixed up. He told me of other large firms in that city with similar employment managers and a simi lar policy. They had an informal club that met usually once a week. One of the things of which they were proud was their plan of forecasting the labor market. If labor was getting restless they could anticipate it by a concerted raising of wages 10 per cent until the storm blew over, and then reduce the wages back again, thus counteracting the work of agitators.
