Reading edition
Mr. T. S. Halsey is a contributor to “Trade Unionism and Labor Problems,” published by Ginn & Co., Boston, 1905. He recites (p. 284) how a corporation had manufactured a product again and again. Both workmen and foreman were positive that the working time was at the minimum. The premium plan of payment was introduced, with a reduction in time of 41 per cent. as the result.
