Though it may be hoped and even predicted that each movement in the agglomerative development of capital and labour which presents the two agents in larger and more organized shape, will render the work of conciliation more peremptory and more feasible, it must be admitted that all these conciliatory movements making for the direct fusion of capital and labour, are of an importance subordinate to the larger evolutionary force on which we have laid stress.
We see then the multitudinous units of capital and labour crystallizing ever into larger and larger masses, moving towards an ideal goal which would present a single body of organized capital and a single body of organized labour.

The process in each case is stimulated by the similar process in the other.

Each step in the organization of labour forces a corresponding move towards organization of capital, and _vice versa_.
Striking examples of this imitative strategic movement have been presented by the rapid temporary organization of Australian capital, and by the effect of Dock Labourers' Unions in England in promoting the closer co-operation of the capital of shipowners.

By this interaction of the two forces, the development in the organization of capital and labour presents itself as a _pari passu_ progress; or perhaps more strictly it goes by the analogy of a game of draughts; the normal state is a series of alternate moves; but when one side has gained a victory, that is, taken a piece, it can make another move.
Sec.8.Relation of Low-skilled Labour to the wider Movement .-- The relation in which this large industrial evolution stands to our problem of the poor low-skilled worker is not obscure.

In comparing the movement of capital with that of labour we saw that in one respect the former was clearer and more perfect.
