The Effects Of Japanese Printing On The Wage Structure Of American Printers With Special Reference To That Of The Pacific Coast, David Sum Young Jan 1962

The Effects Of Japanese Printing On The Wage Structure Of American Printers With Special Reference To That Of The Pacific Coast, David Sum Young

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The Japanese industries have proven to be strong competitors to various American industries. This has been especially true in the electronic and household product industries, where the quality of the merchandise has improved so greatly that it often equals or betters its American counterpart. A significant part of these improvements can be attributed to the use of American technology and American capital invested by Japan. The threat of foreign competition cannot be limited to a small area, as it can prevail in any area where the cost of labor is relatively high in relation to the finished product. Because of …

An Analysis Of Instalment Credit Within Commercial Banks, Wayne Atwell Freeland

Since that period commercial banks have expanded to become the largest single holder of installment credit.

The primary purpose of this thesis is to review and evaluate the principles, methods and procedures used in the investigation and credit decision of consumer instalment credit as established …

A Historical Study Of The Development Of The Bracero Program,With Special Emphasis On The Coachella And Imperial Valleys, Margaret Breed Mackaye Jan 1958

A Historical Study Of The Development Of The Bracero Program,With Special Emphasis On The Coachella And Imperial Valleys, Margaret Breed Mackaye

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Why at the present time do we need added sources of labor beyond that available within the country? One faction would cry, "We don't!" Another would say, "We decry the importation of labor, but there simply aren't United States citizens in sufficient numbers to get these jobs done." A third group would probably answer, "Why worry about it? These laborers will come across the border, legally or illegally; we may as well avail ourselves of their services." Perhaps we should let a fourth group speak: "We must see that you do not misuse these people."


Political Behavior In A Time Of Crisis, 1865-1905, John Cameron May 1957

Political Behavior In A Time Of Crisis, 1865-1905, John Cameron

Senior Scholar Papers

This study has attenpted to explain the nature of the institutions from 1865-1905 that made it inevitable that manipulators of persons on the grand scale should emerge to take control where there was, temporarily, a political-sccial vacuum to be filled. A nation of individuals., accustomed to the idea that each person must fend for himself as an independent unit, moved into an age of interdependence. The people, however. were slow to recognize this fact and slow to organize the institutions which such an era required. Ray Stannard Baker in his American Chronicle has caught the feelings of the average man …

An Analysis Of Sovereignty And Its Application To Segregation In Public Schools, Patricia Minor Murphy

Master's Theses

Division of authority between the national goverment and the state governments has been a problem since the origin of the United States and this problem is especially prominent today in so far as it concerns the public schools. In the present situation, both constitutional and emotional difficulties are concerned; for this reason, history, constitutional analysis, and recent developments in trends of thought are all essential parts of a discussion concerning the present problem of segregation in public schools.

Almost three years ago, the Supreme Court rendered its decision in the Segregation Cases, 347 U.S. 483 (1954), in which it held …
