Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Irresponsible Five: A New Family Compact If a government commission had issued a report upon boiler-making, newspaper printing, the manufacture of brick, or any one of the different processes that make up the industrial life of a civilised country, an analysis of that report would devolve, naturally, upon the men in the industry dealt with by the report. These things are technical; and only the men engaged in the specific industry reported upon, are in a position to analyse the report. The old adage that a shoemaker should stick to his last, contains, at least, this element of truth: that no one but the shoemaker knows much about a last. In the same way, criticism of the Drayton-Acworth report devolves naturally upon men engaged in the railway business.
