Sheffield Talk on Trade Unions and Foreign Competition

Speakers discuss trade unions in Sheffield, urging less restrictive rules and more dialogue with masters. They cite 1836 strike lessons, wage-keeping prices, and generous aid to workers during downturns. They warn foreign competition, praise Adam Smith, and call for free labor markets without caste-like trade barriers.
