Book Wages and Trade in Manufacturing Industries in America and in Europe  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Wages and Trade in Manufacturing Industries in America and in Europe Classic Reprint written by J. Schoenhof and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wages and Trade in Manufacturing Industries in America and in Europe The question of labor and wages is the one question which ought most to concern American economists and American states men. For the great body of our seventeen million male workers are wage-earners averaging less than $400 per year; and the greatest good of the greatest number is the purpose of the American nation. The protectionists have claimed that a protective tariff raises wages. This is the last ditch of their argument. There began to be doubt about the truth of this claim. Consequently the New York Tribune, the organ of the protectionists, sent a special cor respondent to Europe to obtain evidence in support of it. Mr. Robert P. Porter, who had been special agent of the Census as to statistics of wealth and secretary of the Tariff Commission, was secured for this purpose. Mr. Porter did what he was sent to do. He presented a picture of the distress of England under free trade and of the prosperity of France and Germany under a protective tariff that was most of a surprise to those who knew most of those countries.

Book Real Wages in Manufacturing  1890 1914

Download or read book Real Wages in Manufacturing 1890 1914 written by Albert Rees and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-12-08 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previous wage studies of the period before World War I found that real wages remained stable from 1890 to 1914 despite the continued growth of the economy. This study indicates that this conclusion was based on faulty statistics. Using new estimates of money wages and a new cost-of-living index, Mr. Rees shows that real wages rose considerably in this period, although less than in later years. His findings will require revision of the prevailing viewpoint. Originally published in 1961. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.

Book Historical Review of Wages and Prices  1752 1860

Download or read book Historical Review of Wages and Prices 1752 1860 written by Carroll D. Wright and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-11-10 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Review of Wages and Prices, 1752 1860: From the Sixteenth Annual Report of the Massachussetts Bureau of Statistics of Labor The Bureau has, from time to time, devoted considerable attention to the important subject of wages and cost of living. The chapters upon this topic presented in the annual report for 1879, and in subsequent issues, have quite fully covered the period between 1860 and 1884. It was determined, therefore, to collect during the current year all available data respecting wages and prices in the early part of the century, and to bring the investigation forward to 1860 so as to connect such data with that already published. Statistics of this sort seemed necessary properly to complete the history of the industrial development Of Massachusetts, and the work, if undertaken at all, demanded immediate action, as the information, scattered through Old account books, bills and miscellaneous papers, was rapidly passing out of existence.

Book The American Cotton Industry

Download or read book The American Cotton Industry written by Thomas Young and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-25 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Cotton Industry: A Study of Work and Workers, Contributed, to the Manchester Guardian HE publication in volume form of this imperfect study of the American Cotton Industry affords the Author a welcome opportunity publicly to thank those friends in England and in the United States who assisted him in his investigations. Nothing could exceed the liberality and courtesy with which American manufacturers and others admitted him to their mills and talked to him of their business, knowing, as they did, that everything they said and disclosed might be 'used against them.' This debt of gratitude he cannot himself hope to repay; but if any information in this book should prove to be of value to English manufacturers, he hopes that they will consider it a gift from America, and return it in kind when American manufacturers come to England upon a similar errand. The Author can say without affectation that any merits which his book may have are due to these American and English friends, and that its many shortcomings are due to himself.
