Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Industrial Conciliation and Arbitration
Studies of the sort made by Mr. Knoop in this essay are more urgently needed at the present time than they have been in most periods of our history. In saying this I am aware that the man who tries to judge relatively the magnitude of the problems of his own times is liable to become the victim of illusion. His interest in the social questions just before him imparts to them a vividness and Impressiveness in com parison With which the past is dull, and he 18 led -to feel, as hundreds of others have felt before, that he stands on the threshold of a new era. But, these considerations notwithstanding, it does seem as if the present age would be distinguished in history by the economic changes that took place in it and the attempts that were made to deal with social difficulties. In the field of industry we are faced by the trust which, if not new, is at least more.
