Labor relations in the Gold Coast (Ghana), or such aspects as as collective bargaining, free trade unions, & arbitration, cannot be discussed as though a free market economy existed there or on the assumption that it will develop as in Europe & in America. The state is the dominant employer of labor & the principal source of capital; without its initiative the economy would not have developed. So long as this persists an effective free trade union movement will be difficult to secure, & it is as yet too early to attempt to predict how the trade union movement will develop. To a considerable degree the direction of African thought may depend on the understanding shown by the West of the magnitude & complexity of the econ pol'al problems facing the new statesmen in Ghana.
