Abstract

British Labor's Latch-String Out
Horwill, Herbert W. | March 28, 1918 issue

add to cart   close window

In anticipation of the formal adoption of the revised constitution, several progressive middle-class politicians have formally dissociated themselves from liberalism and joined the Labor Party in Great Britain. Charles Roden Buxton may be mentioned as a typical example. A considerable accession of men of this type will greatly strengthen the chances of labor successes at the next election. One of the disabilities of labor in the past has been that its mental processes are slow, and that in making known the results of its thinking it is inarticulate. This handicap has often been noticed in conference between employers and employed for the settlement of strikes and similar troubles.
