The Humane Movement in the United States, 1910—1922
This study attempts to continue for the brief period from 1910 to 1922 Professor Roswell C. McCrea's descriptive survey of the Humane Movement in the United States, which covered the distinctive features of legislation and organized efforts for animal and child protection. Professor McCrea gave an outline presentation of the historical background and development for at least a generation prior to 1909-1910. While making free use of Professor McCr…

The Service of the International Labor Office to Legislative Projects
Social and Labor Legislation
Noteworthy changes in social legislation, including labor legislation, enacted in 1930 by Congress and the legislatures of 12 states of the United States are reviewed. Old age assistance in the form of poor relief, somewhat humanized, rather than old age pensions, is provided by law in New York and Massachusetts. Labor legislation dealt with improved service under workmen's compensation laws in four states and Porto Rico, notably in Virginia, and…
Social Legislation
The output of 1928 was meager, notwithstanding only nine state legislatures and Congress held sessions. Social legislation in its comprehensive aspects includes subjects like labor legislation, which is treated in a separate article (q.v.), public health, also covered in a general article on "Public Health and Medicine" (q.v.), and many important administrative measures, which are treated in a special article on "Government" (q.v.). The topics br…

The Minimum Wage as a Legislative Proposal in the United States
The economists have at least made out a presumptive case for the desirability of a minimum standard below which wages should not be allowed to fall in the low-paid industries.The suggestion is not that wages should be fixed by law or that the principle of competition in the fixing of wages should be entirely abandoned.It is rather that further limits should be placed on competition with respect to the labor contract beyond those that now obtain i…

Child Labor and the Public Schools
The restriction or the abolition of child labor will impose new duties and open up new opportunities for the public school every- where.What is the cost of child labor, not to the children in terms of stunted bodies and dwarfed minds, but to society, in terms of racial and industrial deterioration?We frequently ask that ques- tion and usually answer it by coming to a firm conviction that it does not pay.It is not worth the price we pay for it.It …

Child Labor a National Problem
The evils of child labor cannot well be exaggerated.Neither can they be quantitatively measured with any precision.I would like to have accurate statistics of child labor in the United States, which we have not got so far, but it makes comparatively little differ- ence whether a million and a half or two million and a half children of tender years are at work.It is fundamentally wrong, it is a con- tradiction of the basic principles of this free …
The Public Charities of Porto Rico
Briefer Communications
Professor Lindsay's thoughtful paper on &dquo;The Unit of Consider- ation in Sociology&dquo;* suggests to me a number of queries which I submit for what they are worth.It is growing more and more evident that the people who call themselves sociologists are of two varieties: First, those who start by abstracting something or other which they are pleased to term &dquo;social&dquo; from the sum of associated human activities or their
The Foreign Policy of the United States: Commercial and Political
The Unit of Investigation or of Consideration in Sociology
In the general literature of the social sciences during the past decade one cannot fail to notice an increased and almost disproportionate interest in the problems of theoret- ical sociology.Some advance has been made in definiteness. of purpose, in uniformity of methods, and in identity of subject-matter.We have perhaps emerged once more from the cloud of discredit in scientific circles that surrounded sociology a generation ago.Yet progress in …

in his little work on &dquo; Trusts &dquo; (p. 4),defines a trust as &dquo; a combination of many competing concerns under one management, which thereby reduces the cost, regulates the amount of production, and increases the price for which the article is sold.&dquo;As Mr. Cook is severe in his denunciation of trusts, we may fairly infer that this definition is not unduly favorable.Now certainly it is not an evil to &dquo; reduce the cost&dquo; o…
