Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. The Cost of Living in Various Communities, February 15, 1935, Method of Survey. National Industrial Conference Board, Inc. (NYC), 1935. 11"x 8.5", mimeographed on laid paper. Original wrappers, staple bound. Mimeograph. Imprinted "Confidential: Not for Publication". [++] The Board set out to find what the average blue color working family of four needed to survive in the United States in 1935. The Board first determined what the annual purchasing/replacement needs were for a family to form a baseline for computing the cost of living. That is what is covered in this work, how many times (or how much) of an item was in the budget to be replaced or supplemented x-times/yearwe don't see the actual dollars-and-cents of the issue, but we do see an outline of what was consumed and how often the goods would be replaced over the course of a year (or more in 20% of the cases). What this reveals, I think, is really how very little was spent on just about everythingfrom sugar to sweaters--here in the height of the Great Depression. For example, in the clothing category (for boys 12 years old), the Board figured for one set of the following, per year: 1 each per year of suits, pajamas, stockings, shoes, galoshes, gloves. Winter coats (multi year wear of one) Twice per year replacements of neckties, shoes, trousers. For adult male: 1 unit per year of trousers, wool work shirt, shoes, galoshes, felt hat; 2 allowed per year of neckties; 3 per year of socks; also 6 handkerchiefs. Women: coat every 3 years, 3 dresses/year; once a year for a large sweater, vest, bloomer, nightgown, pumps, slippers; twice a year for corsets and slips. Interesting to note that in the food department the family needs are reckoned in pounds/year, the heaviest yearly staples being potatoes (600 lbs), carrots (200 lbs), white cabbage (200 lbs), tomatoes (140 lbs), bananas (100 lbs), butter (78 lbs)--and of course there was sugar (156 lbs).

In 1933, the Nazis closed the unions, and Gottfurcht became an insurance agent. This enabled him to create an illegal trade union organisation in Saxony, Thuringia and Silesia. He was arrested in 1937 and charged with treason, but was released due to a lack of evidence, and in 1938, he was able to emigrate to the United Kingdom. In the UK, Gottfurcht joined the Labour Party and tried unsuccessfully to influence British government policy on Germany after the war. He also joined the Union of German Socialist Organisations in Great Britain. He was briefly interned in 1941, but on release set up an organisation of German trade unionists, and broadcast on the German language programmes of the BBC.

Making use of the initials of recently deceased party leader Eugene Victor Debs in its call sign, the station operated from Woodhaven in the New York City borough of Queens."--Wikipedia Also: ""Joining the Socialist Party with the Debs radio project were a number of national and international trade unions, including the United Mine Workers of America, the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union, the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America, the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, and the United Hebrew Trades.[7] Also joining the fundraising effort were the left wing fraternal benefit society the Workmen's Circle and the financially successful Yiddish language social democratic daily, The Jewish Daily Forward, headed by Abraham Cahan."--Wikipedia) "The International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union was once one of the largest labor unions in the United States founded in 1900 by local union delegates representing about 2,000 members in cities in the northeastern United States. It was one of the first U.S. Unions to have a membership consisting of mostly females, and it played a key role in the labor history of the 1920s and 1930s. The union is generally referred to as the "ILGWU" or the "ILG". The ILGWU grew in geographical scope, membership size, and political influence to become one of the most powerful forces in American organized labor by mid-century. Representing workers in the women's garment industry, the ILGWU worked to improve working and living conditions of its members through collective bargaining agreements, training programs, health care facilities, cooperative housing, educational opportunities, and other efforts. The ILGWU merged with the Amalgamated Clothing and Textile Workers Union in 1995 to form the Union of Needle trades, Industrial and Textile Employees (UNITE). UNITE merged with the Hotel Employees and Restaurant Employees Union (HERE) in 2004 to create a new union known as UNITE HERE. The two unions that formed UNITE in 1995 represented only 250,000 workers between them, down from the ILGWU's peak membership of 450,000 in 1969. [++] The White Goods Workers' Union Local 62, also known as the Underwear and White Goods Workers Union, was chartered in 1909, but was not fully organized until 1913. Rose Schneiderman and the Women's Trade Union League assisted with the early organizing efforts of the White Goods Workers. These workers consisted mainly of young immigrant girls. Early leaders of the local included Samuel Shore. On March 1913, 15,000 workers went on strike against the sweatshop conditions. A six week strike ensued in which many of the girls on the picket lines were attacked and arrested. Gains won included a 54 hour week, no Sunday, sanitary conditions and an 18 cent an hour minimum wage. This strike made the local. The local and its workers were originally called white goods workers as they manufactured camisoles, chemises, cambric drawers with lace ruffles and drawstrings, and corset covers."--Cornell University IRC Library online.

Robert Oppenheimer, his former graduate-school teacher, and was witness to the Trinity nuclear testing. He helped assemble the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and was part of a team that toured Japan after the country's surrender ended World War II. Following the war, Morrison became a forceful advocate of international arms control, helping to found the Federation of American Scientists, writing for the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists, appearing at meetings and signing statements opposing militarism. His views on disarmament led him to be labeled a communist sympathizer, and he was called to testify before the U.S. Senate International Security Subcommittee in 1953. In 1946, Morrison left Los Alamos and jointed Hans Bethe at Cornell, where he became interested in astrophysics and cosmology. During the 1950s, he began to concentrate on theoretical astrophysics, and he and a colleague proposed a search for radio signals emanating from extraterrestrial beings. He moved on to M.I.T. in 1964, where he authored and co-authored several books and studies on arms control."--Atomic Archives site.
