EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, captured by the renowned Harris & Ewing studio between 1910 and 1920, depicts a pivotal moment in a vocational training hearing. The scene unfolds within the confines of a grand boardroom, where a group of serious-faced men, dressed in suits and ties, engage in an intense discussion. The room is filled with the rich aroma of history, as evidenced by the ornate wooden furniture, intricately patterned carpet, and large glass windows that allow the sunlight to filter in. This gathering was likely part of a congressional committee or a local government body, dedicated to addressing the pressing issue of employment and vocational training for the American workforce. The men around the table, representing various industries and sectors, were likely advocating for policies and resources to prepare the country's labor force for the challenges of the modern world. The photograph serves as a metaphor for the old boys network or old boys club that was prevalent during this era. The men in the room, many of whom appear to be seasoned and well-established, are engaged in a conversation that could shape the future of their country. The image is a testament to the power of collective decision-making and the importance of investing in the education and training of the nation's workforce. The Harris & Ewing Collection, housed in the Library of Congress, is a treasure trove of historical images that offer a glimpse into the past and provide valuable insights into the social, political, and cultural landscape of the United States during the 20th century.
