Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Unemployment The time is past when the problem of unemployment could be disposed of either by ignoring it, as was the practice until recent years in America, or by attributing it to mere laziness and inefficiency. We are beginning to recognize that unemployment is not so much due to individual causes and to the shiftlessness of won't-works, as social and inherent in our present method Of industrial organization. During the winter of 1914-1915 the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, at the request of the committee on unem ployment appointed by the mayor of New York, estimated after a careful canvass of its industrial policy-holders that persons were unemployed in New York City. In the first two weeks of February a careful canvass was made by agents Of the federal Bureau Of Labor Statistics, on the basis of which it was estimated that were still unemployed at that time. The dis puted estimate of unemployed in that city alone, made during the previous winter by the Association for Improving the Condition of the Poor, seems, therefore, not to have been exaggerated. At the same time relief agencies in many other cities were swamped. Municipal lodging houses were turning away many genuine seekers after work - to sleep on bare boards at the docks, in warehouses, even in morgues. The United States Census for 1900 showed that working people, or nearly 25 per cent of all engaged in gainful occupations, had been unemployed some time during the year. Of these lost from one to three months' work each; lost from: four to six months each; lost from seven to twelve months each. Similar data were collected by the government in 1910, but they are still unpublished. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Persistent Public Problems: Unemployment, Social and Industrial Righteousness This book contains a composite message from earnest, eminent men. They are not dreamers, but practical, busy men of affairs. Men who have made good and whose dominating purpose is to do good. Here are discussed some of those persistent, puzzling, public problems which are more and more claiming the attention of thinking people. Grateful acknowledgment is here made of the gener ous and cordial cooperation of all whose names appear on these pages as assisting in this work. Every student of social problems and all who labor for social and industrial righteousness are confronted with the gigantic and complicated problem of unemploy ment, which has been said to lie in a very special sense at the foundation of our progress in civilization. So closely interrelated as to be really a part of the problem of unemployment are some of our most vexing and alarming problems. For illustration we may men tion the wage question, the problem of the high cost of living, &0. Most programs for the remedy of unemployment, usu ally superficial and temporary in character, omit any con sideration of these interrelated problems.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Unemployment Insurance in Theory and Practice: Research Report Number 51, June, 1922 Unemployment is an industrial problem which is both eco nomic and social in character, world - wide in extent and of first rank in importance. Although present in some form in all periods of industrial and social development, the problem of unemployment has come to be emphasized in modern times because of its scope and because of the seriousness and far reaching character of its effects. It is found in all industrial nations, not only in the cyclically recurring periods of economic depression, but even in times of normal business activity. It is always of sufficient importance to constitute a problem provocative Of efforts toward relief and prevention.

This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Practical Program for the Prevention of Unemployment in America The time is past when the problem of unemployment could be disposed of either by ignoring it, as was the practice until recent years in America, or by attributing it to mere laziness and inefficiency. We are beginning to recognize that the causes of unemployment are not so much individual and due to the shiftlessness of "won't-works" as social and inherent in our present method of industrial organization. It is important that those who are aiming at the prevention of unemployment in America should never forget that it is a problem continually with us, in good seasons as well as in bad seasons. Occasional crises, with their sympathetic demands for temporary relief, should not blind us to the need for a constructive program. In the meantime the community, as a result of its past neglect to adopt some energetic constructive policy on unemployment, is being constantly confronted with an army of idle workers whose distress, which becomes conspicuous with the approach of bitter weather, demands, and, according to the analysis here presented, deserves adequate relief. Much unemployment is due to irregularity of industrial operations over which the workers have no control. Periodic abnormal excess of labor supply over labor demand is caused by the fluctuations of industry, which in its present disorganized form makes necessary constant reserves waiting to answer calls when they come. Hundreds of thousands more of workers are needed in good years than in bad years, and in each industry many more are needed in the busy season than in the slack season. Furthermore, in almost every business, special calls arise for more workers to be taken on for a few weeks, a few days or even a few hours. The reserves necessary to meet these cyclical, seasonal or casual demands should be reduced to a minimum. Industry must be regularised. Much unemployment, also, is caused by the lack of efficient means of transferring workers smoothly and rapidly from job to job. Public employment exchanges must be established.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Problem of the Unemployed The following essay has been written under a deep sense of the need of an honest effort at reducing if not abolishing the commercial and social cesspool of our age - unemployment.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Unemployed: A National Question Mr. Percy Alden, the author of this work, is well qualified, both by personal experience and long investigation of the problem, to give the history of the various inquiries that have been made, and of the practical steps taken by other Governments than our own.1 Some causes of unemployment can be ascertained, and preventive or palliative measures sug gested. These are fully described and dis cussed in this book. But one cause no wisdom can foresee. In our complicated industrial system, changes suddenly take place in the demand for labour against which no foresight of the wisest Government and Parliament can provide. For such a con tingency there is but one form of remedy some occupation with an unlimited demand for workers upon which everyone can in the last resort fall back. Such an occupation is the cultivation of the soil - the first and the last resource of the human race. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Meet Hard Times: A Program for the Prevention and Relief of Abnormal Unemployment The present Mayor's Committee on Unemployment was appointed partly for the purpose of preparing against future unemployment crises. Its main endeavor, nevertheless, has been to deal constructively with unemployment generally by helping to increase the contact between the jobless man and woman and the employer seeking help, by tracing the causes of irregularity of employment and aiding employers in reducing the wastefulness which springs from a large labor turn-over and from the use of casual, irregularly employed and undependable labor. In these studies and efforts to improve employment methods, the Committee has become impressed with the close relation which the employ ment conditions of hard times bear to the general lack of system in stabil izing enterprise and making employment permanent. The special tendencies which in hard times dislocate employment on a large scale are aggravated by a normal insecurity in the hold upon the labor market which is shared by many thousands of our industrial workers. That insecurity is a constant source of anxiety in tens of thousands of homes; it produces incompetence and a lowering in the standard of life, Which, in certain occupations, assumes dangerous proportions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in History, Economics, and Public Law, Vol. 79 The definitions given to the term unemployment by the various authorities cited vary widely, some using it to cover merely the involuntary idleness of able-bodied workers, others cloaking under it all idleness, whatso ever its cause or nature. The limiting extent to which certain authorities apply the term is indicated in the con sideration of their theories. Throughout this paper, how ever, unless otherwise noted, the term is used in a broad sense; in the writer's opinion the vagrant and other types of unemployables are legitimate elements of theproblem of unemployment, even though the social or industrial cause be one step further removed than in the case of the temporarily unemployed wage earner.
