Kelley, Florence. Some ethical gains through legislation. *$1.25. Macmillan.
“Legislation and judicial decision concerning the rights of the child, the rights of women, the rights of all labourers to leisure through restricted hours of labor, and the rights of the purchaser to knowledge of the condition of production and distribution of goods, are clearly presented and interpreted. The author is prepared for the work, and by long experience in social, economic investigation as government and state official, as special investigator, as a settlement resident, and as a member of the Illinois bar. The volume forms the latest addition to the ‘American citizens’ library.’”—Bookm.
“One marked distinction of Mrs. Kelley’s discussions is the vividness of the concrete images used to enforce the argument, and these illustrations are not borrowed from books.” C. R. Henderson.
