Capital and Labor

Strikes

FIFTEEN THOUSAND men quit work in one city, tying up the largest industries in the place. In another city, a street car strike caused every car in the city to stand still for days while men in all lines of business walked, or used jitneys or any other kind of conveyance available. In New York City a strike of engineers, longshoremen, and freight men, leaves hundreds of cars loaded and untouched for days, some of them filled with foods and perishable goods. In the coal-mining sections, a strike was threatened, but a general strike was averted by the proprietors agreeing with their men for a substantial advance in wages, and a reduction in hours. These are only a few items taken from recent newspaper reports revealing the unrest throughout the country.

What are the causes of these things? What is the meaning to us? Do the Scriptures give light upon the present conditions? What will be the final solution of these problems? All these questions, and more, are answered in the book—

“Capital and Labor”

The conflict between the employers and employed, and the reasons for it, are impartially stated in this book, which also gives the one solution to the problem.

These things are a sign of the times, and like many other signs, point to the second coming of Christ. “Behold, the Judge standeth before the door.” “Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.”

This is a most timely book, and should be circulated by the thousand. It will be read with interest by rich and poor; by employer and employed.

Paper cover, 25 cents; board cover with emblematic design in colors, 75 cents. Price 10 per cent higher in Canada.
