Abstract
Abstract At one time, historians believed World War I had delivered a coup de grace to the Progressive movement, the series of campaigns that had arisen before 1914 to reform American society. There is considerable evidence for this view. We have noted the way business groups, assailed by reformers in the pre war years, took command of the councils of defence, the War Industries Board, and other volunteer agencies and used them to reassert their influence. We have seen how people who wanted to make fundamental reforms in the relationships between social classes (for in stance, members of the Industrial Workers of the World and certain elements of the Socialist Party) were persecuted during the war years.
