Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Union Labor in Peace and War
What will happen in the rest of Europe and in America when the war ceases, when the external pressure is relieved, when the temperature goes down and thirty million men suddenly are thrown back upon their own resources?
Thirty million men and their dependents, equivalent to the total population of the United States, are now being fed, clothed and housed by the belligerent governments. Who can imagine the tremendous upheaval resulting from the sudden unemploy ment of almost the entire working population of the United States? England by no means has the largest army, yet England is planning to distribute the process of demobilization over twelve months at least 1n order to forestall chaos and misery. The problem of merely getting the boys out of the trenches and back to the benches 1s daily assuming larger proportions.
