To-day, the hard worker has turned into a discontented agitator. The change is commonly alleged to be a result of Communistic propaganda. However, if one would face the facts of contemporary history, one would find that labour's awakening is caused not so much by any single external influence as by the complicated political, economic and intellectual developments within."
