Book Description

Excerpt from The Problem of the Unemployed The following essay has been written under a deep sense of the need of an honest effort at reducing if not abolishing the commercial and social cesspool of our age - unemployment. In this decade, when national ideals are taking a new and higher form, Unemployment, as a "problem of industry," should yield to the higher industrial and social righteousness. We desire to acknowledge our indebtedness to Dr. Josiah Strong, of New York; Mr. A. C. Pigou, Mr. Percy Alden, M. P.; and Mr. W. H. Beveridge, of England, whose writings have greatly helped the writer to arrive at definite conclusions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
