{"value"=>"<p>Correspondence and papers of departmental anti-socialist meetings, 1912-1915, concerning the proposed reorganization of the Industrial Economics Department to study the economic principles of Marxism, to examine the conflict between craft unionism and industrial unionism, to investigate government interference in business affairs, and to identify the fundamental differences in aims and methods of the trade union movement, the socialists, and the Industrial Workers of the World. These meetings culminated in the commissioning of a national survey of economic, political, and social progress in the United States since the 1870s. The files also contain miscellaneous papers including lists of members of the department, progress survey questionnaires, draft outlines of the survey, drafts of public announcements outlining the purpose of the survey, reports, and completed progress surveys.</p>"}
