Abstract

The United Front in Britain
Hutchison, Keith | April 2, 1938 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents discussion on two books. The books are: "The Post-War History of the British Working Classes," by Allen Hutt and "Wages and Income in the United Kingdom Since 1860," by A.L. Bowley. As seen by Hutt, the post-war history of the British working classes is a sad chronicle of a militant rank and file held back by timid, vacillating, and sometimes treacherous leadership. Time and again readers are given a picture of an aggressive army of labor brought to defeat or retreat by Fabian tactics born of a belief in the inevitability of gradualness. It is a picture not without truth but one painted far too much in primary colors.
