Book excerpt: Excerpt from The First Biennial Report of the Indiana Labor Commission for the Years 1897-1898 So far as relates to the purpose of the law, little opposition has been shown by either capital or labor. There has been found al most a universal expression of approval. These evidences have been made by verbal expressions, by numerous votes of thanks from labor organizations, and by letters of commendation from employers in all parts of the State, and are so ample that there is no hazard in the conjecture that Arbitration and Conciliation will be accepted as the more satisfactory method of settling labor dis putes in Indiana in future. The Commissioners' efforts have been enlisted in the investiga tion and settlement of troubles to a degree almost commensurate with the vast variety of industries of the State. In the mines, on the highways, in the factories and workshops its energies have been exerted in reconciling the ever recurring controversies which arise. Each dispute has presented new phases and taught new lessons. In some instances it has been a demand for increase of wages; in others a protest against reductions; in addition there have been conflicts growing out of demands for trade regulation; the recogni tion of labor organizations; insistence upon prompt pay and honest weight; protest concerning unfair discrimination against work men; strifes for the regulation of the hours of labor; organized op position to oppressive trade rules; and in many instances two or more perplexing questions have demanded adjustment in reaching satisfactory conclusions. So, also, miners, tin workers, glass workers, building tradesmen, teamsters, shovelers, plate glass bevelers, canners, butchers, coop ers, allied printing tradesmen, brick makers, machine workers, and numerous others have encountered controversies, the settlement of which have involved intricate trade problems requiring patience and diplomacy. The results have not always been satisfactory nor permanent, owing to supervening conditions over which the Com mission had no control. At times flat failures have followed ef forts at settlement.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Second Biennial Report of the Indiana Labor Commission: For the Years 1899-1900 The significance of the term notice and hearing was densely vague, and the attorney-general was appealed to for an interpreta tion of its legal meaning. His decision, in substance, was that, in order to secure an exemption it would be necessary for an employer to post in a conspicuous place in his factory a notice to his employes that after ten days he would apply to the Labor Commissioners for a certificate Of relief from weekly wage payments. Additionally, it was decided that the petition so filed be accompanied by another voluntarily signed by more than 50 per cent. Of the employes af fected, praying for such exemption. This done, the Labor Com mission could, if it so desired, comply with the terms of the request. This provision led to the conclusion that it was the opinion Of the Legislature that sometimes conditions existed where the arbitrary enforcement Of the law would impose unusual inconvenience and expense upon employers. In a few instances this was found to be true, and the desired relief cheerfully given. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-07-22 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fourth Biennial Report of the Indiana Labor Commission for the Years 1903-1904 Dear Sir - Herewith is submitted to you the Fourth Biennial Report of the Indiana Labor Commission for the fiscal years 1903-1904. As compared with preceding reports made by this Commission, this one shows a gratifying improvement in industrial conditions in Indiana. This fact finds expression in fewer lockouts, strikes and boycotts; a smaller number of persons involved; a shorter duration of trouble; a lessened intensity of strife; more gratifying settlements, and a greater number of adjustments without strikes. Formerly troubles came with such frequency as to make it impossible to meet all the demands made upon the Commission. This was largely due to the fact that labor was then slowly evolving itself out of depressed conditions, and that in its zeal to secure the blessings of increasing prosperity conflicts were precipitated at times when more conservative methods would have accomplished better results, and at less cost of time and wages. It must not be understood that this report includes all the industrial troubles that have occurred in the State during the two years comprehended by it. There are still times when two or three prevail simultaneously in different localities - often remotely situated. Under such contingency it is the aim to render official aid where it seems most imperative. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fifth Biennial Report of the Indiana Labor Commission, 1905-1906 It is apparent, however, that most organized workmen will accede to almost any other proposition rather than consent to work with those whom they claim aid employers in fighting their unions. This objection does not seem to lie so much against unorganized workmen as individuals, but because of the many evils which they claim the open shop system makes possible. The idea is in separably associated in their minds with that of cheap labor and long hours, and the Opinion is strongly confirmed, they say, by the fact that in most instances where the open shop proposition has dominated reductions of wages have followed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sixth Biennial Report of the Indiana Labor Commission, 1907-1908 On the following day the prisoners were remanded to the Circuit Court, and were removed to Crown Point to await the result of a Grand Jury investigation. To the La bor Commission the police expressed the opinion that more than fifty rioters had been injured, some seriously, while others had been concealed and shielded from arrest by friends. The refusal of the company to grant the advance asked for, the summary method of treating the petitioners, to gether with the speedy arrest and imprisonment of the rioters, seemed to intensify the excitement and sympathy among the remaining employes of the mill.

This book was released on 2017-12-16 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fourth Annual Report of the Commissioner of Labor, 1888: Working Women in Large Cities Sir: I have the honor to submit herewith my fourth annual report. This report properly belongs with the series emanating from the Bureau of Labor. By law the Bureau of Labor ceased to exist, practically, on the 30th of J une last, the Department of Labor having been created by an act approved J uue 13, 1888. The investigation on which this report is based was made by the Bureau of Labor. As a part, there fore, of the work of the Department of the Interior, and as material constitutin g a part of your annual report for the fiscal year ending J uue 30, 1888, it seems proper that I should transmit this report to you, and in doing so I desire to thank you for your courtesy at all times in aid. Ing me to forward the work of the Bureau of Labor. Your kindness and that of your predecessors has been of great assistance in perform ing the duties assigned to the Bureau of Labor. All future reports, of course, will come from the Department of Labor, and by law will be transmitted to Congress. While the material for this report was col lected prior to the close of the last fiscal year, much other work was done by the Bureau which must naturally be carried forward into the reports of the present and the comin g fiscal years. I can not, therefore, strictly say that the present report constitutes the operations of the Bureau of Labor for the fiscal year ending J uue 30, 1888. The special work called for by Congress relating to the statistics of marriage and divorce does not form a part of the annual report, but by law is to be presented to Congress as a special matter. This work relatin g to mar riage and divorce has been carried through, so far as the fieldwork was concerned, by the Bureau of Labor, under your administration, and your liberal construction of law and hearty cooperation have enabled me to make an exhaustive report relating to one of the most vital questions connected with the social affairs of the country.

This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 938 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fifth Annual Report of the Commissioner of Labor: For the Twelve Months Ended September 30, 1905 It is possible that if a labor bureau were organized by the State on an extensive scale, with branches in all of the principal cities, it might be a factor in the labor situation of the State, but to maintain such a bureau would require a large sum Of money annually and to determine its value would require several years of experiment. And as the State is face to face with immediate and pressing labor problems such as factory inspection and child labor, we would recommend that all the energies of your office he turned in that direction. We believe, therefore. That we are justified in recommending to you that the Free Employment Bureau be discontinued on the ground that it has not become a reliance of or indispensable to any particular group of unemployed, that such discontinuance can be effected without detriment to the interests of any individual or group of individuals, and that the functions it now performs can be as well performed by private agencies.

The large quan tity of data secured and the considerable space required for its ade quate presentation rendered it necessary to devote two separate reports to the subjects covered.
