Excerpt from Personnel and Employment Problems in Industrial Management, Vol. 65: The Annals; May, 1916 In the same interval labor, at least Skilled labor, has developed in average education, in average intelligence, and in the power to think, in aspirations and workingmen have become ambitious to live fuller lives in cleaner homes, to educate their children better.

Moreover, labor has become highly organized, not for cooperation with capital, but in self-defense against capital, to fight capital. Capital in the past has in some instances taught labor selfishness and certain forms of tyranny. Labor has learned its power to threaten and even to paralyze industry.
