Excerpt from Government and Industry
This book is a preliminary survey of a very complex section of social life: it makes no pretence to include all the facts in regards to government or industry, and it implies no claim to finality. It is a study of actual practice with a view to discovering fundamental principles, and it is not a statement of an ideal nor propaganda for a policy; but such a survey may be useful both because the facts referred to affect the solution of such contemporary problems as the nationalization of industries and because a new field of investigation has been opened up by recent governmental experiments and the reports of Commissions and Committees.
As for the evidence, the survey, so far as personal experience goes, is the result of some years of service in three departments of the Central Government dealing with industry; but a fortunate contact in lectures and classes with adult audiences, representing perhaps the most conscious and critical elements in the political community, has provided some evidence outside the departments as to what the citizen thinks and feels about Government and the State.
