This article discusses the book "The Government--Strikebreaker," by Jay Lovestone. The author begins with a statement of the labor policy of the government during the war and a summary of the promises that were made to the workers when the life of the republic seemed to be threatened. He then traces the position of the authorities in the textile, mine and the railway-shop strikes to prove his contention that the government is America's strikebreaker-in-chief. Following two chapters on the use of the injunction in labor disputes there are a number of sections devoted to the army, employers' associations, and the press.
