...manufacturing situation however, presents a different aspect. The main feature is the sharp fall in prices beginning in the spring of 1920 which was accompanied by an equally sudden drop in the output of manufactured goods. This decline can be fully understood when it is stated that the period January-October 1921 is to the same period in 1920 as 79 is to 108.

None of these schemes accomplish the result he had hoped for, and Taylorization--making production 100 percent efficient--served only in raising Russia's output to 25 percent of the normal. The absurdity of his last scheme--that of using the water powers of the Ural Mountains to generate free electricity for the whole country--would seem to indicate that his dreams are already falling...
...modern closed shop is an efficient shop. The restrictions on apprenticeship of former times were due to a necessity for maintaining a high quality of output. With modern introduction of machinery, these restrictions are rapidly disappearing. The charge that closed shop men "slack" on the job can be applied to all labor. The open shop drive system does more to injure industrial efficiency than...
