Excerpt from The Labor Movement: The Problem of to-Day
HE worker, the thinker, the student, the statesman and the capitalist are all forced, by the pressure of events, to consider the Labor Movement and the Labor Problem. All are witnesses of the power of combination for good or evil. All may know that systems of industry change by slow, evolv ing processes, and that these processes of growth culminate in crises of mighty import. The capitalist, seeking profit or gain, and the worker, seeking better and easier condition, may work as partners, with common interests, or wage unrje Iehting war for the mastery. That the victory will come to the side of justice and equity, is the certain prophecy of history.
This book is an attempt to contribute something to the peaceful solution of the Labor problem. The history of the Labor Movement is the history of civilization. It has mani fested itselfin all times and under all conditions oflife. The eternal query of life is, How to obtain comfort? The prayer, Give us this day our daily bread, is uttered by Pagan and Christian alike; and this demand for sustenance is supple mented by the hope for equity. So long as outward evidences of aggregate prosperity are present, we are apt to forget or neglect to know the conditions of some Of those who con tribute to the results. In Europe, the frequent and almost continuous periods of distress have compelled attention; and philanthropist, statesman and student have done much, especially in England and France, to provide a literature covering almost every phase of the movement. Dr. Edmund J. James, of the University of Pennsylvania, has so admir ably condensed that history in his three chapters of this book.
