MUNITION WORKERS IN ENGLAND UT of the exigencies of the great war there have developed in England striking indus trial problems. After nearly a year of wasteful production that exhausted men and machinery, government officials realized that instead of "sprinting as if for a short race, the course would be a long one"; and that the labor power of the nation should be as zealously safeguarded as its military strength. The futility of helter-skelter haste was dramatically brought home to all England by the famous shell shortage in the spring of 1915, for which Kitchener was blamed. It was a case of the situation's running away with those who should have controlled it. The sudden call for large amounts of clothing, munitions, food, and other necessities of war time, had taken the manufacturers completely by surprise, and the rush to fill orders demoralized industrial conditions. Overtime became the rule, night work and Sunday work were common. Trade unions saw the gains of years swept away. Nearly a year was gone before the government assumed responsibility for organizing the huge business of making war supplies, and almost another year was required to complete an organization which was efficient. The crux of the situation was of course in the munition industry. August, 1914, found the nation without enough guns, shells and other war equipment to carry on its great military operations and with no way to get them quickly or in large volume. In response to the unprecedented demand for these materials had come an immediate expansion of the industry, which soon exhausted the supply of skilled men and forced employers to recruit their workers from the ranks of the unskilled, both men and women. Stimulated by the exhortations of the press and of...

Download or read book Warhogs written by Stuart D. Brandes and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-12-14 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Puritans condemned war profiteering as a "Provoking Evil," George Washington feared that it would ruin the Revolution, and Franklin D. Roosevelt promised many times that he would never permit the rise of another crop of "war millionaires." Yet on every occasion that American soldiers and sailors served and sacrificed in the field and on the sea, other Americans cheerfully enhanced their personal wealth by exploiting every opportunity that wartime circumstances presented. In Warhogs, Stuart D. Brandes masterfully blends intellectual, economic, and military history into a fascinating discussion of a great moral question for generations of Americans: Can some individuals rightly profit during wartime while others sacrifice their lives to protect the nation? Drawing upon a wealth of manuscript sources, newspapers, contemporary periodicals, government reports, and other relevant literature, Brandes traces how each generation in financing its wars has endeavored to assemble resources equitably, to define the ethical questions of economic mobilization, and to manage economic sacrifice responsibly. He defines profiteering to include such topics as price gouging, quality degradation, trading with the enemy, plunder, and fraud, in order to examine the different guises of war profits and the degree to which they have existed from one era to the next. This far-reaching discussion moves beyond a linear narrative of the financial schemes that have shaped this nation's capacity to make war to an in-depth analysis of American thought and culture. Those scholars, students, and general readers interested in the interaction of legislative, economic, social, and technological events with the military establishment will find no other study that so thoroughly surveys the story of war profits in America.
