Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Workman Emile Levasscur, the author of the "American Workman," is a sincere and earnest man. The position he has occupied for more than a generation in the learned circles of Europe he owes not alone to his industry, knowledge and faculty for expression, but to a penetrating intellect and an unusual quality of final judgment of principles and events. It is valuable to have the vast material embraced in the present study pass through the mind of such a man, and to have his pronouncements upon the important questions raised. It will be found that he has brought to the task an admirable understanding of America and sympathy with it. His comprehensive knowledge of the past and of cotemporary conditions elsewhere and his long experience as a leader of thought in his own country enable him to give to the subject a proper perspective. Moreover the tribute he pays to American ingenuity and progress comes with better grace from him and bears a stamp of greater impartiality than if emanating from one of our own citizens. The translator, Thomas S. Adams, is a thoroughly trained economist. His work has been faithfully and ably done. Added value has been given the study by the degree to which Mr. Adams has enlarged the statistics. So far as possible all statistics have been brought down to date. Where the early figures had no particular significance, they were simply replaced by later ones. In other cases a new note has been added or an old one expanded. The additions of the translator are noted thus: [Tr.] Professor Richard T. Ely brings to the attention of the editor the fact that his "Labor Movement in America" referred to by Professor Levasseur was written nearly fifteen years ago, that not merely have conditions changed since then, but that he has modified somewhat the opinions expressed therein.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How the English Workman Lives To the Editor our author's comments appear well worth taking to heart at the present moment, when a certain over-estimation of our position at home, both politically and socially, is unpleasantly conspicuous. The homely miner here Shows us that we have in many respects, and especially, notwithstanding our much vaunted labour legislation, in regard to labour ques tions, still much to learn from the English. And he does so, not from the standpoint Of the fanatical partisan - for he seems to have left his animosity, along with his Socialist gospel, behind him in the Fatherland - but rather from that of his own personal experience. For this reason his words have a weight of their own not found in the works of specialists. The reflections of the writer are here given in their unadorned freshness. May they not miss their mark!

They are not hostile to employers, not inimical to the interests of the general public. They are for a class, because that class exists and has class interests, but the unions did not create and do not perpetuate the class or its interests and do not seek to evoke a class conflict.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Revised American Candy Maker Before going forward in this book, I would like to have a short talk with the workmen, and perhaps I can help them understand their position toward their employer in a more friendly way. In many years at work as workman, foreman and as employer or proprietor, I have found that there is too much unnecessary friction with one another. I have found that workmen feel that they are not fairly treated, and that they have been imposed upon in many ways. I once knew a number of workmen in one shop who, when one of their number was given a job outside of his regular work, would hold a consultation, and would come to the conclusion that there was some plot back of the order, as there was one special person ordered to do the work; this same feeling would be just as strong when the next order would choose another of their number. This strong suspicious feeling, I know, was all unnecessary. Too often we hear the remark. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Mechanic and Working-Man, Vol. 2 of 2 I would have the home of the working-man his most delightful resort. To be so, it should be pleasing, even its outside. Why should it not be a well-proportioned cottage, with its windows overhung by sweetbrier and honeysuckle, and its roof shaded by spreading trees? Why should not the little door-yard be carpeted with grass, and hedged with shrubbery? These are not luxuries of the rich alone Yet it is too common for people to think that because they are poor they must be slovenly and dirty. A little white wash, a little paint, a little turfing, and a few days of labour about the vines and flowers, will serve to change the whole appearance of the humblest enclosure.

Form, then, in Dante's universe, as in writing, is order. And since no right sense of the significance of order can be developed by mere extracts, the whole com position ofa writer should be given the student for consideration. Only thus can he appreciate that the workman hath in his heart a pur pose. Moreover, the student who masters an essay in all its logical setting forth of an idea toughens his mind to grapple with hard books and to get pleasure from conquering them whether he enjoys them or not. And by means Of this grappling his intelligence can be got actively at work striking out ideas and setting them in order. With the twofold purpose, therefore, Of developing in the student through good reading both a sense Of form and also.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Legion Monthly, Vol. 1: December, 1926 When I was a boy in Indiana, the average man had to work from sunrise to sunset to feed, clothe, house and educate his family. My father and mother saved for years to buy an organ so that my sister might learn to play. They could not save from surplus, so they saved from necessities. Both my sisters and myself wore clothing made from the worn-out garments of our parents. I remember vividly the humiliation of my sisters because they must wear copper toes on their shoes, to prevent scuffing. Compare. That with today. The family of the average workman has a car, a radio, a victrola, a piano. Thanks-to quantity produc tion in clothing, they dress practically as well as a person of wealth. The daughter of the family may wear her skirts to her knees and thereby endanger her morals (though I very gravely doubt that); but she certainly doesn't endanger her health as my sisters did by wearing skirts that dragged the ground and picked up dust and microbes.
