The present war, with its extraordinary need for an efficient merchant marine, and the recent transfer of the Bureau of Marine Inspection and Navigation from the Department of Commerce to the Commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard... clearly demonstrates the importance of Federal control over labor and safety standards in the merchant marine during the national emergency. Chapters include: Seamen's Need for Protection; Recruitment of Personnel, and Training Facilities for Seamen; Collective Bargaining and Seamen's Organization; Seamen's Right to Strike, and Settling Labor Disputes; Regulation of Seamen's Working and Living Conditions at Sea; Regulation for Seamen's Working and Living Conditions in Port; Safety of Life and Property at Sea; Inspection and Enforcement of Legal Standards; Past Achievements and Future Problems; Specific Conclusions; Appendices of statistics such as development of the American Merchant Marine as to Tonnage and Foreign Trade from 1789 to 1940, Nationality of Seamen, Strikes in Water Transportation, Average Seaman Wages, Casualties of the American Merchant Marine, and more.

In-4, broché, couverture papier bleu fort (rel. ancienne), (4), 80 p. Edition originale. Comme fonctionnaire au Bureau des Tailles d'Angoulême, Léonard Antoine du Tillet de Villars (1738-1809) fut l'un des premiers défenseurs de la nécessité d'établir un cadastre national, unique et centralisé afin de réformer l'impôt, sa répartition, le calcul de l'assiette et la perception, vers plus de justice fiscale. Le cadastre servira, par ailleurs, d'outil statistique pour mesurer de la richesse du royaume et de sa population et comme tel permettra d'évaluer les facteurs favorables à la puissance de l'Etat. Turgot qui ne partageait pas le point de vue centralisateur de Tillet du Villars le démît de ses fonctions. Cette étude constitua une source théorique de première importance pour Gracchus Babeuf, organisateur de la "conjuration des Égaux" et précurseur du communisme (cf. V. Daline, 'G. Babeuf', p. 110, 128 et 145). (INED, 1693. Kress, S.4977. Stourm, 'Finances de la France', p. 142). Bon exemplaire.
