Scott King : Keep the home fires burning and Mother and Child (Luton)
No full textFor ‘As You Change, So Do I’, artist Scott King will produce Keep the home fires burning, an event that will include performances by a lone violinist and local Bedfordshire musicians at Luton railway station during the morning and evening rush hours on 29 September to send off and subsequently welcome back commuters to London. Importantly, the artist will work alongside the renowned filmmaker Paul Kelly to create a document of the town’s commuter population on this day that will result in a short, three-minute film that will operate in much the same way as a pop video.
King will also involve local residents to reconstruct Henry Moore’s famous series of sculptures Mother and Child, works that were made during the 1920s through to the 1960s, and which became a staple for civic public sculpture during the post-war era in the UK.
Titled Mother and Child (Luton), new images taken by photographer Elliot Kennedy will result in a series of projected impressions of families from the local community, a selection of which will be shown in sequence between September and December 2016 on the site of the old Gurney’s hat factory wall on the corner of Bute Street and Guildford Street.

The contrast between north and south in England, 1918-1939 : a study of economic, social and political problems with particular reference to the experience of Burnley, Halifax, Ipswich and Luton
No full textThe thesis begins with a discussion of present views on the
nature of the contrast between North and South in England. It proceeds to test those views against the experience of four English towns - Burnley, Halifax, Ipswich and-Luton - between 1918 and 1939. Chapter Two examines the causes and extent of economic growth in the four towns, and devotes special attention to employment and factory construction. A discussion of industrial change in the four towns as individual entities comprises a major section of this chapter. Chapter Three discusses incomes. An attempt is made to establish the proportion of the population in
each of the towns living in poverty. Account is taken of the
impact of rent and union activities on incomes. Chapters Four, Five and Six analyse social conditions in the four towns. Chapter Four looks at changes in population, the role played by migration, compares the health of the towns, and concludes with a discussion of the development of the public health services. Chapter Five takes for its subject the provision of housing and the demolition of slums, and incorporates a note on town planning. In Chapter Six, the educational services are compared and special attention
is given to the impact the depression had on their development. Chapter Seven reviews the financing of local government and compares the contributions made by the rates and by Central Government grants. Year-to-year management of local authority finance is surveyed, and the varying roles played by the Chairmen of the Finance Committees are considered. Chapter Eight examines local government, and isolates for special consideration movements in party support; the contrasting fortunes of the parties, and
especially the rise of Labour and the decline of the Liberals; changes in the social composition of councils; the role of clubs, societies and religious organisations; and the contribution these factors made to the quality of local government, and to the interest the public showed in municipal elections. Chapter Nine looks into the relationship between councils and the business
organisations they controlled, with special reference to the
transport systems, which underwent a crisis in this period. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the relations between chairmen and local government officials. Chapter Ten presents the main findings of the thesis, and sums up the factors responsible for these conclusions
