Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Johns Hopkins University Studies in Historical and Political Science, Vol. 11 It is strange that in an age when social questions challenge so largely the thoughts of men, little attention is paid to fact in comparison with dogma. We ought not to consider it a disparagement of theoretical principles to say that they have been pushed too far, the natural result being a threefold grouping of society: scholars preaching philosophical beatitudes, radical divisions caring for little else save immediate material ends, while between them lies the great conserving body, by no means unsympathetic, but very often inactive from having no clear conceptions of what ought to be done. By no means socialistic in my ways of thinking, I nevertheless feel that before prescribing ideals it behooves us first to know whether the environment is adjusted to their possible realization. Neither dogmatists nor agitators have any love for the statistician, for the simple reason that he disturbs the dream of the one and the occupation of the other. But I believe thoroughly that it is he who can find the key to most of the social problems of labor. His methods are the surest, as he devotes himself to the diagnosis of separate complaints instead of manufacturing universal cures. The United States Department of Labor, under the able direction of the Honorable Carroll D. Wright, may fairly claim the honor of having in its sixth and seventh annual reports presented a grouping of facts in a fuller, more scientific and more useful way than has ever been done before in relation to the social-economic position of industrial labor.
