To Russia and to Roy

Broun, Heywood | September 18, 1935 issue

This article focuses on the working conditions in the U.S. If anybody thinks that working conditions were bad in the early days of 1935, just let him wait and see what "adequate" is going to mean in the winter of 1936. Of course it may be argued that big business has learned its lesson and that it will curb its rapacity just a little. There is not the slightest evidence that big business ever learns. A laissez faire policy is announced at a moment when the country is filled with huge supplies of cheap labor.
