Excerpt from The Social and Industrial Problem: A Brief Introduction to the Study of Social Economics

Hopelessness is perhaps of all things the most destructive of the qualities of energy, co-operation and imagination on which the progress Of the race so greatly depends; and it is diflicult to appreciate to the full the immensity Of the task undertaken by those early trade unionists whose Object was to give coherence and a common purpose to the amorphous mass Of labour, and to weld these countless human grains into a material fit for the construction Of a stable and prosperous industrial society. The seed which was sown under such discouraging conditions has borne ample fruit. At the present time there are in this country alone about six million organized workers associated in a large number Of trade unions, which themselves are developing an increasing tendency to unified action in the industrial field.
