Excerpt from Prices and Wages in the United Kingdom: 1914-1920 Neither prices nor wages were left to the unfettered play of supply and demand, and their changes are closely related to changes in administration and control; but the work of the Government Departments is the subject of other volumes in this series, and therefore the reasons for particular regulations and the methods of administration are not here discussed or described, and dates relating to them are only given where they seem necessary for the understanding of the nature of the changes. This volume deals with results, not with causes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
