Excerpt from Industrial Unrest: A Practical Solution, the Report of the Unionist Social Reform Committee
I apprehend that this is the spirit of the Committee's Report. It gives a fuller recognition of the rights of the community to exercise, through the pressure of public Opinion, its power of bringing employer and employee to a rational frame of mind. At the same time it recognizes that an agreed wage of an adequate character ought also to be made the avowed and explicit object of modern statesmanship. We are, in fact, to have consent and not force and revolution in adjusting the interests of the employers and the employed to suit the convenience of the community as a whole. This surely is the doctrine of a wise conservatism, and while the lesson of 1911, 1912, and 1913 is still in our minds and before the panics of the future, which may await us, can supervene to disturb judgment, it will be better to take a calm decision and support the recommendations of the Committee.
