lations of the British and German Empires," by E. Crammond, appeared in the _Journal of the Royal Statistical Society_, July 1914. The same writer published an article on "The Economic Aspects of the War" in _The Quarterly Review_ for October 1914 (6s.). A grasp of the economic development of Germany may be obtained from W.H. Dawson's _Evolution of Modern Germany_ (5s.) and the same writer's _Industrial Germany_ (Nation's Library, 1s.). Mr. F.W. Taylor's _Scientific Management_ (5s.) and Miss J. Goldmark's _Fatigue and Efficiency_ (8s.) explain scientific management. A short account is also given in Layton's _Capital and Labour_ (Nation's Library, 1s.). The course of unemployment in this country may be traced from the returns published each month in the _Board of Trade Labour Gazette_ (monthly, 1d.). Proposals for dealing with possible and existing distress during the war are to be found in a pamphlet on _The War and the Workers,_ by Sidney Webb (Fabian Society, 1d.). For the possible use of trade unions as a channel for the distribution of public assistance, see an article in _The Nation_ for September 5, 1914, and Mr. G.D.H. Cole's article on "How to help the Cotton Operative" in _The Nation_ for November 7, 1914. The same paper published two suggestive articles on "Relief or Maintenance?" (September 19 and October 3). The situation which has arisen in the woollen and worsted industries owing to the large demand for cloth for the troops is dealt with in an article on "The Government and Khaki," by Arthur Greenwood in _The Nation_ for November 28, 1914. Reference may be made to the official White Paper on Distress; other official documents of note are the following: "Separation allowances to the Wives and Children of Seamen, Marines, and Reservists." Cd. 7619. 1914. 1/2d. "Increased Rates of Separation Allowance for the Wives and Children of Soldiers." Cd. 7255. 1914. 1/2d. "Return of Papers relating to the Assistance rendered by the Treasury to Banks and Discount Houses since the Outbreak of War on August 4, 1914, and to the Questions of the Advisability of continuing or ending the Moratorium and of the Nature of the Banking Facilities now available." H.C. 457 of 1914. 1d. "Report, dated April 30, 1914, of a Sub-Committee of the Committee of Imperial Defence on the Insurance of British Shipping in Time of War, to devise a scheme to ensure that, in case of war, British Steamships
