ENDORSES TAFT
In Recommendation for Commission
to Investigate Industrial
Conditions.

NEW YORK. Feb. 16-Theodore
Roosevelt has an editorial article in
the current issue OF the Outlook, on
Phase OF industrial Justice"
After describing a visit TO a model
factory and dwelling on certain
phases of the relations between en-
ployer and employee, Mr.. Roosevelt
says:
The president in a recent message
has recommended the creation OF
Congress OF a commission TO look into
industrial conditions in this country.
IL is earnestly TO be hoped that Repub-
licans and Democrats. wise progress
sives and wise conservatives, will all
alike back up this action. Such a
com mission could not but do good. IL
properly made up. il would approach
the matter OF industrial relations with
out prajudise as between eIupIuyers as
sociatiOns and labor unions. II would
look at the matter from the point OF
view OF public interest. with concern
10 work for the prevention of unneces-
sary labor disputes and for setting
those that do rise on a Just and per-
manent basis.
Such commission of wise. public
spirited and well-informed citizens
would look carefully and without
prejudice into the existing grievances
OF labor and would examine the
means which are available for fight
ing them. and the plans which are
being tried in this country or abroad
for preventing and settling disputes.
IL would examine into the function
, and efficiency of State and Federal la
Dor bureaus and would report as TO
existing labor laws, so that we might
know whether they are adequate and
correspond TO our present needs as a
people. IL would work along lines of
profitable inquiry which might be sug-
gested. Surely there Is now a wide
spread and deep public interest in
ms vital subject. and an earnest de-
sire 10 know whether our existing
mechanism for preventing and set
ting labor disputes and for helping
the cause Of social justice as regards
both employer and wage worker can
not he improved
Undoubtedly the remedy must in
large part be found In the action OF the
several states rather than I'm the fed
eral government. and undoubtedly ~
must also in large part be founu in
voluntary arrangements between en-.
ployers and employees and in a higher
general recognition OF the need or
justice and fair dealing But only an
inquiry by the federal government can
