Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industrial Government All of them, of course, had features in common, but these ruling ideas stood out rather clearly as we neared the end of our journey when we could look back and compare them one with another. All of them were very alive and were making great changes in short periods, both in system and person ality. One was passing from autocracy into govern ment by employees; another from scientific manage ment into unionism; another from welfare into self government; another from political to industrial form of government. One interesting fact was found: the sudden or grad ual moral conversion of an employer from business to humanity. Employees noted it, and could not at first believe it, or were still incredulous, and told us about it, and so did the employer himself. In some cases it was unionism or strikes that did it. In others it was business foresight of the labor problem. In others it was sermons by an industrial evangelist.

Which did not always need formal expression, was effective in upholding public order and morality. This sentiment had its sources chiefly in home life and training. In the in uence of religion, and in the traditions of ancestral character and public spirit, and of honorable service of pub lic interests, which were transmitted in families from gener ation to generation. The war developed in uences which seriously impaired the vitality of local self-government and of the moral and social guardianship of public order and honor. The most potent factor in this evil change was the new thirst and passion for wealth which appeared amid the morbid conditions of the life of the people after the great con ict. Under the in uence of this all-absorbing ambition the moral administration of the local communities was to a great extent abandoned, and it has never been resumed. Multitudes of citizens, relinquishing the warfare against dis order into which all true men are born, devoted their pow ers wholly to the acquisition of wealth, and this pursuit soon became a mad struggle for success and pre-eminence which produced unwholesome intellectual and social condi tions still everywhere prominent in the national character and life. Here was the source and birth of American socialism. It is the fashion to assert that socialism in this country is of foreign origin, and this notion is a comfort to many persons, but the socialism which is most vital and dynamic among us to-day is the growth of our own soil. It had its origin in the changes in thought, feeling and action produced by the rise of an over-mastering desire for wealth which has weakened all properly social motives and e brts, diminished civic patriotism, and in a great measure destroyed the sense of a Spiritual and moral community. With the decline of the life and e iciency of the local com. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Industrial Revolution The classes that labour with their hands for weekly wages have now entrusted to them much of the power possessed by the Government of this country. The future of this country, and the parts of the world dependent on it must be largely settled by the use, wise or foolish, good or evil, they will be making of this power. Their own future depends on it. If they refuse to think, if they choose to listen to fools' advice, if they do not take advantage of the opportunities they have for making themselves better, morally, physically, and intellectually, the world will pass them by speedily and inevitably. Goodwill is no excuse in face of facts only good deeds will count. Knowledge and the will to use it, and the courage and perseverance required to use it rightly, these are the necessities of progress and of well-being of any kind. Ignorance that may be felt (but that may by honest effort be destroyed) is the cause of many more of our troubles than we like to admit. Science, not Creed, is the Deliverer, if we will only take the trouble to follow it. There will be plenty of mistakes on the way, but if a man means to learn by his former mistakes, he nearly always has the chance, and the advance, though slow, will be continuous.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Industrial Evolution of the United States The plan of this work comprehends a plain, simple statement of the leading facts attending the planting and development of the mechanical industries of our country. No attempt has been made to discuss some of the influences which have affected their development, such as the varied effects of tariff legislation, financial experiments, foreign policies, or economic conditions and principles. To have entered upon an ambitious field involving such important elements in the evolution of industry would have led to a work much more extensive than that contemplated. The results have been given, however, in such concise form as to present the general story of our industrial growth and the logical effects of such growth as shown in the various phases of the labor movement. Modern industry brought this movement as it is now understood into existence, and its influence upon future development will be important. As invention has been the vitalizing principle of the factory system, it has been deemed wise to incorporate chapters on the influence of machinery. These chapters, the last three, are largely from addresses which I have made, and the line of thought followed in them is the result of extended observation and the wide study of facts, a study which has led me to change the conclusions reached by the earlier consideration of what I now see was a limited range of experiences.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Government and Industry Although the principles considered are general in their application, they are studied mainly in reference to British experience, and therefore it should be recognized that their treatment here is not adequate, for it is an absurd provincialism to believe that the State is, in essence, the United Kingdom or that government is peculiarly British. Of course the various systems of government and the many different organizations of industry in other lands should be studied in order to establish a valid conception of the whole subject and for this reason alone it should be clear that the following is only a preliminary study. The excuse for not dealing in detail with non-british government and industry is in part personal ignorance, in part lack of evidence. Nevertheless, it does appear to be true that in the United Kingdom a characteristic and very important political and economic tendency is being developed more rapidly than elsewhere.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Government Industrial Arbitration Prior to 1824 a long series of laws, going back as far as the Statute of Apprentices in 1562, (a) had contained provisions for the settlement of individual disputes between masters and servants. Prior to 1747 these provisions appear in acts containing various other labor regulations, but in that year a special law, (b) dealing solely with the settlement of disputes, appears. This law, like all the earlier provisions, simply referred disputes to the justices of the peace or local magistrates, in harmony with the existing method of State regulation, which, as embodied in the Statute of Apprentices, had designated those same officials as the authorities to fix the rates of wages for labor generally.

But it is necessary at the outset to make reference to one of them, as it will be necessary on occasion again where otherwise the industrial solution under discussion would not be completely intelligible. With the ordinary democratic theory we are familiar enough; but it is only in the government of subject races that Englishmen of this generation come face to face with the paternal or authoritarian ideal. Yet this ideal is clearly no less applicable to the internal government of a single country than to the government of dependencies by an Imperial Power. Instead of a whole people governing itself through a Parliament elected under a system of more or less universal suffrage, we might have two distinct classes, the governing and the governed - the former understanding, by reason of their superior education, wherein the latter's true interests consist, and having the good-will to act accordingly.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Industrial History of England In the Preface to the Fifth Edition he wrote It has been said that I write with a prejudice against the owners of land: but this is not the case. The landed gentry of England happen for some centuries to have held the pre dominant power in the State and in society, and used it, not unnaturally, in many cases to further their own interests. It is the duty of an historian to point this out, but it need not therefore be thought that he had any special bias against the class. Any other class would certainly have done the same, as, for instance, mill owners did among their own employees at the beginning of this century, and as, in all probability, the working classes will do when a further extension of democratic government shall have given them the opportunity.

No attempt is made at this time to analyze the prob lem presented by industrial monopoly. The important practical question to-day is the attitude of the govern ment towards monopoly, and it has been deemed wisest to interpret it, as far as possible, in a purely objective manner.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Government Control and Operation of Industry in Great Britain and the United States During the World War The present study by the Honorable Charles Whiting Baker concerns itself with the government administration of the industrial life of Great Britain and the United States during the war. Mr. Baker's verdict on the organization and conduct of the various industrial activities undertaken by the government for war purposes is, on the whole, favorable. With this opinion most of our people will very likely agree. Indeed, the editor is doubtful of the correctness of Mr. Baker's opinion concerning the views of the so-called con servative or middle class on this matter. On the contrary, the editor believes that the great majority of our people of all classes would say yes to the question whether the gov ernment administration of such industrial activities as it took over was not good for war purposes under the conditions and circumstances that prevailed while the war was in progress. Indeed, the inquiry which one must put in such a matter is not, after all, whether the administration was good or bad, but whether it was as good as it could be under the circum stances, whether other officers, for example, could probably have managed better. Put in this way the answer must again be, on the whole, in favor of the government. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industrial Location and National Resources: December 1942 Under these developments the Federal Government has necessarily inﬂuenced materially the geographic distribution of industry. The selection of sites for Government-owned plants, including those placed under private operation, has been an immediate governmental responsibility; and the choice of locations for privately owned plants, when financed by Federal funds, has also been subject to considerable governmental control. But the wartime inﬂuence of Government on the loca tion of industry has by no means stopped here. Important, though less direct, locational effects have resulted from the granting of certificates of necessity, allowing the rapid amortization for tax purposes of investments in approved new productive facilities; from the allocation of war orders, including the encouragement of subcontracting; and from the direct restriction of production for civilian consumption. Before the war, the inﬂuence of the Federal Govern ment on industrial location was almost entirely indirect and unplanned. This inﬂuence developed in connec tion with policies directed primarily towards other objectives, for example, regulation of transportation, development of power resources, or establishment of labor standards. Local governments, to be sure, formulated some direct policies, such as zoning ordi nances, but local efforts to attract industry and control location were of limited scope and were made without consideration of their effects on other communities.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industrial Colonies and Village Settlements for the Consumptive Symonds, and we together examined the patients, sampled the climate and other conditions, and argued with Unger and Ruedi. Then for the second time came Hope; more solid Hope. Given a fairly early case, and three years, and recovery was in the offing. And so we went on cheerfully with Davos. But Davos was not for every one; nor was every case an early 'one. Then came the discovery that lower altitudes would do if certain conditions were obtained; and so arose the great sanatorium movement. But slowly we found that patients could not spend their lives in sanatoriums; and one day on making my way up to one of them in England, I met on the way patient after patient, slouching along, bored to death with themselves and with each other; and even worse in morale than in body. Better discipline and better notions of thera peutics mended some of that; still I could not forget those listless saunterers, and it became evident to some of us, however unwillingly, that Hope was drooping again. The sanatorium was doing a great educative work no doubt; but at the end of its four or six months - what then? To send the patient away with recommendations about light jobs, and a regime, was almost a mockery or quite. What about the wage, and the family to be supported? The next lesson was brought home to me by a visit with other commissioners to certain cities, concerning some such problems. Before me now I see a gaunt hollow-eyed man, coughing, and leaning against the wall as he tried to talk to us, saying that his mates when he came out of the sanatorium - good fellows as they were - had bought him a milk that he might creep round, and earn a bit. The brave wife, shawl on head and mill apron on, had just come from the factory, and apologised for the dirty house - as well she might. The poor thing was working all day at the factory to keep the wolf from the door. All being dragged down together into the pit! What is the value of a good house, or a clean house, if no wages! What is there for the children? And what is to stop the infection! Who then would have the imagination, the initiative, the business capacity, to lift this burden, like lifting a world?
