Extracts from the December 1918 report of the Federal Board for Vocational Education arguing for the value of handicrafts in vocational training, the reeducation of disabled soldiers, and postwar industry. It discusses the educational and social worth of craft work, leisure and the machine-age worker, and the limits of the arts and crafts movement as an economic enterprise. The last page carries a photograph of an overshot coverlet from the Shuttle-Craft looms in Basin, Montana.
