Government and Business in Germany: Public Policy toward Cartels
Through a careful analysis of public policy and opinion, Professor Marburg considers the nature, allowable range, and economic effects of those business associations designated “cartels” in German usage. Marked contrasts with American theory and practice in similar fields emerge

A Study of Small Business Failure: Smith & Griggs of Waterbury
Historians have recorded some of the more spectacular failures in American business, but the subject of business failure in itself has not been intensively studied. To lay the groundwork for such a study, the experience of individual firms should be examined in detail and attention should be directed to small as well as large business units. The history of Smith & Griggs provides an example of “discontinuance” which came about not as a result of …
Manufacturer's Drummer, 1852, With Comments on Western and Southern Markets
Changes in the role of the commercial drummer during the thirty years prior to the Civil War are suggested by comparison of reports received from a salesman in the 1850's with similar reports received from a salesman for the same firm in the 1830's. The trips and reports of the earlier salesman, who traveled for J. M. L. & W. H. Scovill, a Connecticut brass rolling and fabricating partnership, were described in the last issue of this Bulletin. Th…
Manufacturer's Drummer, 1832
The drummer's rôle in American merchandising prior to the Civil War has already been pointed up in a number of articles in this BULLETIN. To the picture already presented may be added detail taken from reports on trips, to the area west of the Alleghenies, made by two sales representatives of a Connecticut manufacturer in the 1830's and the 1850's. The present article is devoted to the circumstances of the sales trips made in the 1830's. The trav…
In Brass Manufacturing During the 1830's
Two propositions are suggested by a preliminary examination of the marketing of brass and brass products a century ago: first, that the manufacturer's quest for a near-monopoly market through product differentiation is not a new development; second, that this very quest of the manufacturer for near-monopoly has been the life blood of manufacturing progress
Commission Agents in the Button and Brass Trade a Century Ago
Commission agents are of minor significance in the distribution of semi-manufactured goods today. Data from the Census of Manufactures reveal that in 1929 only a small portion of manufacturers' sales of buttons, and of non-ferrous metal alloys and their products, was made through commission houses and agents. Approximately two thirds of such sales were made directly to industrial or other large consumers and one quarter to wholesale merchants. Th…
Aspects of Labor Administration in the Early Nineteenth Century
The striking problem faced by the labor administrator in the early Connecticut button industry was the shortage of native skilled artisans. While unskilled laborers, bookkeepers, and even managers could be drawn from sources in this country, highly skilled artisans were usually available only in England. The shortage of skilled labor thus truly constituted the bottleneck to quality production. In the correspondence of Alexander Hamilton, for the …
Sovereignty and Race as Affected by a League of Nations
Just as the old idea of natural rights has given way to the conception that the state has a right to do whatever it is in the interest of society in the long result that it should do, so it is becoming plain that the doctrine of absolute sovereignty set up to guard the state itself against interference by other states must ultimately give way before the conception of a society of nations
The League To Enforce Peace—a Reply To Critics
World Court and League of Peace
The Washington Meeting of the American Society for the Judicial Settlement of International Disputes
Although the peace movement is still a movement of intellectuals it is no longer confined to idealists. That fact is amply illustrated by the personnel of the congress held at Washington, December 15–17, 1910, under the auspices of the American Society for Judicial Settlement of International Disputes. The various groups of practical men in close touch with affairs—legislators, statesmen, educators and business men—who addressed the congress were…
