Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Second Biennial Report of the Indiana Labor Commission: For the Years 1899-1900 To the Hon. James A. Mount, Governor of the State of Indiana; Dear Sir - The following pages comprise the Second Biennial Report of the Indiana Labor Commission, and include a record of its stewardship for the years 1899 and 1900. During the time that has elapsed since the last report, November 1, 1898, labor conditions in Indiana have shown gratifying improvements. This is not because strikes have been less frequent than during the preceding two years - for there has been an increase of eleven over the period covered by the Commission´s former report - but for the reason that those which have occurred have involved fewer persons; have included fewer days; have been based on more reasonable demands, and have been more easily adjusted. It is an agreeable fact that in only four instances have strikes occurred because of attempted reductions of wages; and in three of these the reductions were in factories where skilled workmen were employed, and it was contended by the employers that the reductions were made necessary in order to compete with machine-made products. During the preceding two years the duration of strikes averaged a fraction less than thirty days. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
