Unemployment
Following the First National Conference on Unemployment, which was called under the joint auspices of the American Associations on Unemployment and on Labor Legislation, efforts were made to carry out the duties placed upon the two organizations by resolutions adopted by that conference. The resolutions outlined the field for study and urged especial attention to organization of the labor market, regularization of industry, vocational guidance, systematic distribution of public works, and unemployment insurance.
Fortunately, preparations for three steps in this direction were already under way, and with the proceedings of that conference it was possible to publish in May, 1914, reports upon the operation of public employment bureaus, the status of unemployment insurance legislation, and a classified critical bibliography.
Immediate efforts were made by the secretary to raise the necessary funds for further study, with sufficient success to warrant the employment of several assistants who have devoted themselves to this work. Juliet Stuart Poyntz began work on June 1, 1914, and has concentrated on the investigation of seasonally in industry, particularly in the district in and around Boston. In the prosecution of this work the cooperation of several local and state organizations was secured, including particularly the Boston Chamber of Commerce and the Minimum Wage Commission, the Public Employment Bureau, and the Bureau of Statistics of Massachusetts.
