Abstract
- This article presents information on documents and reports on labor. The third annual report of the Bureau of Statistic of Massachusetts on changes in rates of wage and hour of labor, 1909, and the tenth annual report on strikes and lockouts, 1909, arc of special interest as showing an effort to inform the reader in regard to the meaning of terms used in the statistical tables, and also in giving publicity as to the methods of deriving the tables. An indorsement of free public employment bureaus is given in the twenty-forth report of the Bureau of Labor Statistics of Connecticut for the two year ending November 80, 1910. It is stated that these offices have passed the experimental stage and are recognized as a necessity, taking precedence over private agencies. There are now five in operation. This same report has a section devoted to tenement houses and publishes a directory of labor organizations. The National Civic Federation has published a pamphlet, "Views of Legal Committee Department" on compensation for industrial accidents and their prevention.
