Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The American Labor Year Book: 1917-18 The following section is devoted to a description of the progress of the international Socialist, labor and co-operative movements, by countries. Last year´s material is condensed and a great deal of what occurred during the years of 1916 and 1917, the information of which could be obtained, is included. The material for this section was mainly supplied by Ludwig Lore, Associate Editor of the New York Volkzeitung, whose close acquaintance with the international movement was very helpful in the preparation of this portion of the book. The editor drew upon his own sources of information for the article on Russia and it roughly represents his interpretation of the events which occurred there up to the writing of the article. The subsequent developments seem to have substantiated the ideas set forth in the article. The last part of the book deals with the Socialist movement in the United States. Special articles on the results of the last presidential campaign, the activities of Socialists holding public office, the Unity Conference of the two Socialist parties in this country, the St. Louis Convention of the Socialist Party and an account of the results of the recent election are included in this section. The present book is almost entirely a new volume. The editor originally planned to reprint a number of valuable articles from the first volume. Lack of space forced him to omit those articles, as well as a great deal of material which was especially prepared for this edition. It will be almost a necessity for those using the Year Book to secure last year´s edition in order to get the background for a great deal of material contained in this volume. The editor takes this opportunity to thank the various contributors whose ready and genuine co-operation was both an inspiration and a great aid. His gratitude is especially due to David P. Berenberg and Spencer Brodney, who gave a great deal of their time and ability to editorial work; to George N. Cohen, who diligently read the proofs, to Frank V. Anderson, who helped with the index and to Edith Heller and Rosalind Kohn who read copy and proofs. The editor again enters his request for helpful criticism and suggestions for guidance in preparation of future editions.
