Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Labor and the Next War The working people of the United States live in a new period of history. The old period ended in 1917 when we entered the world war. As a result of the war the United States is a nation that differs much from the old nation before the war. We live in an imperialist period of American history. What does imperialism mean? It means the extension of power and American rule over other peoples and nations. It means a lust for conquest. It means the suppression of the aspirations of peoples overseas. It means either control of or dictation to their governments, and this eventually leads to annexation. It means large naval power to keep these peoples in submission. It means a permanent militarism which cursed the peoples of Europe for a generation before the world war. Workingmen may ask, How does all this affect us and our families? Why should we worry? The answer is that no government can be a tyrant abroad without becoming a tyrant at home. It cannot suppress freedom overseas without suppressing it at home. It cannot make slaves of other peoples without making slaves at home. If it cares not for the institutions of other peoples it will have little regard for any at home that stand in the way of its domineering rule. If it imposes autocracy on others it eventually will impose autocracy on you. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

America has known no firmer voice in the trying months that have passed. It has been a voice for democracy, a voice for freedom, and a voice stem and harsh in combating those insidious forces of pacifism and pro-germanism that cropped up here and there in our midst as we struggled against the common enemy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Union Labor in Peace and War What will happen in the rest of Europe and in America when the war ceases, when the external pressure is relieved, when the temperature goes down and thirty million men suddenly are thrown back upon their own resources? Thirty million men and their dependents, equivalent to the total population of the United States, are now being fed, clothed and housed by the belligerent governments. Who can imagine the tremendous upheaval resulting from the sudden unemploy ment of almost the entire working population of the United States? England by no means has the largest army, yet England is planning to distribute the process of demobilization over twelve months at least 1n order to forestall chaos and misery. The problem of merely getting the boys out of the trenches and back to the benches 1s daily assuming larger proportions.

Download or read book Chicago To-Day written by W. T. Stead and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-20 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chicago to-Day: The Labour War in America The recent terrible outburst of industrial war in the United States of America leads me to issue this brief and rapid survey of the events which have occurred this summer at Chicago. During my sojourn last winter in that great city, I had the opportunity of making the personal acquaintance of most of those who are leading the forces on either side, and since my return to London I have neglected no opportunity of keeping myself informed of the way in which things were going. In this volume I have endeavoured to piece together several more or less fragmentary studies of the labour movement and the problems which it raises in America to-day. Three of the chapters have appeared respectively in the Contemporary Review, the New Review, and the Review of Reviews, but the bulk of the work is now printed for the first time. I hope I may be excused for reproducing some passages from my earlier book, "If Christ came to Chicago?" They are very brief, and they are necessary to the due presentation of the case. With that exception this book covers new ground, and may be said to be in some sense as a sequel up to date of the other volume.

This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Labor and the War Reconstructors for a New World Public attention has been absorbed in what has been happening in Russia. Now in Germany. The working class revolutions there have been so much more spectacular as to have quite overshadowed the formidable British labor movement or to have been confused with it. Some writers on the great war have said that the thing which set this war off from any known for a thousand years has been that it was the wrestlings of whole peoples; that here we have been dealing with folk movements unlike any that had occurred since the days when Saxons and Franks, Teutons and Huns and Slavs swept over western Europe. However that may be, there has been another folk movement at work in the midst of war in Europe which is tremendously significant. It asserted itself disruptively in various stages of the Russian revolution. The same forces are at work elsewhere. And in England we have the attempt to harness them in a great constructive working class movement which will make for changes in the economic and political life, in the period following the war, as sweeping as the changes wrought by those middle-class movements which manifested themselves in the ascendancy of nationalism, and in the struggle for liberalism within the nations. In all European history, we have had in England forecasts of fundamental changes that were coming on the continent. The English reformation preceded the continental reformation; the English swing to parliamentary government and democracy preceded the political revolutions on the continent. For the most part Englishmen did not go through anything like the travail and bitterness which the continental peoples traversed in running the same course. They did not come out at the same point; but they showed the trend, and they showed it in advance. Even so, what has been going forward under the stress of war among the wage-earning population of the island commonwealth foreshadows changes which will affect and condition the whole fabric of western civilization. Being a folk movement, it is not possible to compress it into any one channel. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Labor Conditions and Legislation During the War The subject of this monograph is one of wide public interest. Perhaps no one subject connected with the war, aside from those having immediately to do with direct military operations, has aroused a greater interest in the minds of the public than have changes induced in the labor situation. The editor requested Professor Hammond to take up the subject, believing that his years of study of labor questions, and his familiarity with inno vations. In Australia and elsewhere, would enable him more quickly to understand and more justly to appreciate the impor tance of such radical changes as the war induced in the condi tions of employment and life of the workers of the world. His treatment has justified this confidence. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Labour and Capital After the War I Commend this book to the attention of all thoughtful and patriotic men and women. The question of the capacity of our industries to adapt themselves to after-war conditions is a vital one. Unless in the days to come we can maintain and expand our product of manufactures in such quality and quantity as to provide exchange for our needed foodstuffs and raw materials, as well as to redeem our external war debt, we cannot hope to keep our place in the world. In the application of science and in the machinery of organisation great strides have been made during the war; but these are dry bones without a solution of the problem of the human factor. The cause for which the war has been fought, and the tragic sacrifices it has involved, give a supreme importance to the human relationships of industry. Liberty will have been won, not by "man-power," but by "spirit-power." Liberty itself is only a foundation: to build on it a worthy and enduring fabric needs the same "spirit-power." With a new sense of human values, we may hope to link all the workers in industry in a frank partnership for the common good. The safety of the State calls for the fullest development in a united purpose of all gifts of brain and hand.

This book was released on 2018-08-03 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Labor's Relation to the World War I know that amongst our own people the claim was put forth that no man should be permitted to go upon these vessels as a passenger, taking the chance of having his life destroyed and thereby endanger ing the peace of his own country, and that our country should prohibit passengers from. Going upon vessels. But that was only a part of the problem. Suppose that we had as a Government, as a people, said to those who desired to travel upon those vessels as passengers, You must not travel upon those vessels, or, if you do, you do so at your own risk. We would not then have solved the problem, because there were the seamen to take into consideration, the sailor upon the bridge, the fireman and the engineer in the hold, the cook and the steward and the vast numbers of men who daily earned their bread in manning the vessels. Even if we had taken the passengers off, we would then have been placed in the position of having to abandon our overseas trade altogether or of supporting, maintaining. And defending our sailors in their right to earn their bread in their daily vocation. I don't know what your judgment may be in the matter. I know what my judgment is, what the judg ment of the administration was, and that is that the sailor earning his bread before the mast is just as much entitled to the protection of the United States Government as the most wealthy millionaire.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of Organized Labor in America The historical background has been left without revision. The other parts have been condensed in many places in order to add the newer material while many chapters, especially in Parts, II, III, and V, have been quite entirely rewritten. It is the author's belief that the study now presents an interpretation that is reliable and representative Of current developments. The effects of the war period and the post-war period have been important, but the essence of the movement has been changed far less in America than elsewhere, and because of this the task of revision has been much simpler than it otherwise might have been.

It has for over ten years made it a condition that it would not employ persons who were members of such organizations or retain in its employ those who became members. Its policy in this regard was so well known that it was understood that those who accepted employment were considered to have agreed thereto. 5. The labor union involved in this matter has no membership whatever among this company's employees, but is an organization carrying on a propaganda to induce our employees to become members. 6. The labor union which invoked the interference of the National War Labor Board sought to secure an interpretation of the Boards principles that would in effect become a mandate of the Board in support of its propaganda to secure members from the staff of the company by inducing them to violate the conditions of their employment.

This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Labor and Reconstruction in Europe The modern struggle for Democracy began with the demand of the nobles for the right to share with the king the privileges and responsibilities of government. That was followed by the middle or commercial classes insisting upon the same privilege. Later the workers demanded a voice in the affairs of state. By the middle of last century the people of the United States had achieved almost universal manhood suffrage. Since then those intrusted with the affairs of government have been responsible to all of the people for their acts rather than to any one group. But the change came so gradually and with so little of upheaval and conflict that it took the dangers and duties of a great world war to bring home to the masses of the people a full realization that they are the real power and final authority in a Democracy.
