“ The questions people are now asking about industry are new questions. What kind of community life does the industrial order render possible? To what extent does modern industry make for the intensification of citizenshio ? These questions are not those that used to be asked. The aspects of industrialism that used to engage men’s minds were almost exclusively economic. Now it is the social aspects that are beginning to demand attention. The criterion is not so much quantity of commodities as quality of life. Modern industrial organisation is being regarded in the light of the human ends which it serves. The great problem of the future is the adjustment of this organisation to minister to the development of citizenship.”— D- _G. A. Johnston in his book “ Citizenship in the Industrial World.”
