- W47821066 abstract "A generation ago, those of us who felt that industry had to do with men and brethren were deeply stirred by R. H. Tawney's little book, The Sickness of an Acquisitive Society. The outlook was Christian of the Left. Tawney indicated the shareholder as the root of all industrial evil. Over against the worker, restless, anxious, fearful, exasperated, militant, stood the cause of all this woe the shareholder, impassive, sightless, uncaring, ignorant, irresponsible, holding out his plate for more and always more. Mr. Tawney recognised that management, being in direct contact with the worker, was very apt to become human. But the shareholder, pressing on the manager, never became human. The men who made his dividends were not present to his mind at all. He wanted more. And so management could not become human, but had to submit to the constant pressure from behind. Well, times are changed and we are changed in them. Between the shareholder and the worker there has arisen a towering and complex structure of labour legislation and complex arbitration systems. There is light and air and space in the workshop, guarded leisure, a living wage plus overtime on a forty-hour week, and the factory's caretaker probably receives about the same wage as its industrial chemists. And the pressure of irresponsible force at the moment is felt from the opposite direction from the worker backed by the state of things known as over-full employment more jobs than people qualified to do them. No chance of the sack. But the shareholder still stands on his pitch, holding out his plate for more, though now pitying himself because he feels that what he gets are crumbs after taxation and labour costs, and the demand for more capital have had their share. And because of expanding industry's incessant demands, the shareholder and his money are in short supply." @default.
