Summary/Abstract: In mid-June 1913 a professional exhibition on hygiene was organized in St. Petersburg in which Filip Filipović participated in the capacity of Secretary of the Workers’ Council of Serbia and with the help of the Serbian Government. His agreement with the Serbian Government was to submit a detailed report concerning the exhibition after his return from St. Petersburg. The Government wished to use this exhibition as a model for a subsequent exhibition of folk art in Serbia. On his return from St. Petersburg Filip Filipović published a number of articles in the »Workers’ Newspaper«, in which he described the achievements of modern legislation in the world concerning the protection of workers, founding his works on the research of eminent experts: doctors, biologists, psychologists, sociologists, economists, hygienists etc. In this edition of the History of 20th Century a study is given of labor statistics and their use.
