Chenery, William L. | August 30, 1919 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the cost of living which takes precedence on the calendars of half the governments of the world. What were once family matters of chiefly private concern have became the substance of ministerial crises threatening the continuance of many administrations. It is relevant accordingly to attend briefly to the findings of those who have sought to determine the precise expenditure required in the nurture of children, for only upon the basis of such findings is it possible to view the problem rationally.
