Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Rural Problem In the autumn of 1912 the Fabian Society formed a Committee to inquire into Land Problems and Rural Development, and to report to the Society upon the whole subject. The members of the Committee included men and women with a very special knowledge of certain aspects of country life. They heard the evidence of witnesses of varying shades of political and economic opinion, and consulted many of the leading living authorities on different branches of the subject. It fell to my lot, as Chairman of this Committee, to draw up a Report, the original draft of which appeared in August as a special supplement to The New Statesman. The draft, with some correction and modifications, and with the addition of numerous appendices, was afterwards adopted as the Report of the Committee; and it is this Report which is now made public in the following pages. One member, Mr. Oldershaw, disagreed with the Minimum Wage policy, especially as regards its effect on the farmer; the rest of the Committee were at one on all the main issues. It was intended to include a chapter on Women in Agriculture, but the facts were so difficult to obtain that we decided merely to draw attention to the crying need for further official information.
