Abstract: | Preface: An unprecedented amount of unemployment throughout the western world challenges men to use their utmost intelligence to combat this monstrous social evil. yet without an understanding of all the available facts concerned, the problem is incapable of solution. The scope of this thesis is confined to the unemployed in the city of Brandon during the month of September, 1931. The purpose is to present certain aspects of the personal circumstances of their lives, and to discuss the bearing of these circumstances on the local unemployment problem. This study is based on the analysis of the registration of the unemployed of the city of Brandon that was made during the week beginning September 21st, 1931. The statistical method of approach was used both in securing the necessary factual basis and in exploring causual relationships. |
