THE TRUSTS in LUCK

If the solution of the trust problem
depends upon action by the next pres
ident the trusts need not worry. Aside
from some slight interference with
their tariff privileges there is no
menace to their power involved in
the announced policy of any of the
candidates having as much as a fight
ing chance of being the next Presi-
dent.
No one seriously expects President
Taft, If he should be reelected, to
adopt policy hurtful to the trusts.
With his veto power he has defended
them against the slight efforts made
by the present congress to lessen
their tariff graft. He has caused the
creation of the Court of Commerce to
prevent interference with their rail-
road graft. He has appointed judges
who can be depended upon to look
out for monopolistic interests when.
ever there is occasion for SO doing,
and he has done his share in trying
to encourage belief in the silly fallacy
that litigation and criminal prosecu
ton can settle the trust question.
| But President Taft is not alone in
trying to put the people on the wrong
track. Every one of thea leading can
didates is doing the same, some Of
them innocently and sincerely. Even

marvelously in the past two years

Committee Against
Taylor System

Washington, March 20, The house
labor committee. has Just presented
to the house an unfaYorable report
against the Taylor and other systems
Of shop management. The report Of
the committee is unanimous and will
besof inestimable value to the work
ing people Of our country. A thor
ough and comprehensive study of Of
ficiency sistems was made. The re-
port handles the subject in a vigorous
manner, going to the root of the sub
ject. one portion Of which is hereby
reproduced, its philosophy being un-
assailable:
There is margin between the
work performed by the loafer and the
maximum task for q man. and in that
margin lies proper days work..
What constitutes a reasonable days
work can only be determined by prac-
tical experience and intelligent obser-
walton. It can not be wholly deter
mined by stop watch or any other
time-measuring instrument used only
for a brief period of time. BY the stop
watch you may be able to determine
the time in which a piece of work
can be done. but you do not thereby
alone determine the length of time
in which it ought to be done. The time
study of the operations Of any ma
chine can be made with a reasonable
degree Of accuracy, because all OF
the elements can be taken into con-
sideration in making the computa-
ton. A machine is an inanimate
thing-it has no life, no brain, no
sentiment, and no place in the social
order. With workman it is differ
ent. He is living, moving, sentient,
social being; he is entieled to all the
rights, privileges, opportunities, and
respectful consideration given to 9th.
er men. He would be less than a
man if he did not resent the intro
duetion Of any system which deals
with him in the same way as beast
of burden or an inanimate machine
In making time study Of the opera
lions of workman, all of the ele.
ments can not be taken into consider
alton and consequently the computa
ton can not be made with mathemat
ical accuracy. There is no work that
can be performed or that is perform

troll Of these !. organizations in the
hands Of men willing to take chances
of going to jail along with an oppor-
tunity to gain a fortune. Such
change would be no benefit whatever
to the victims.
What would be thought Of house
keeper who would insist on leaving
milk exposed where all the cats in the
neighborhood could get at it, and who
would hope to keep them away by
whipping or threatening to whip
them? What furthermore woulf~be
the correct opinion of sucn a house
keeper if she should not only persist,
in spite of all reason and experience,
in carrying out such a policy, but
would deliberately disregard all sug-
gestions to put the milk in safer
place or at least to put a heavy COW
er on it?
Well, such a housekeeper would.
show as much wisdom as is displayed
by the leading presidential candidates
in discussing the trust question.
1t is the Government itself which
encourages the formation of trusts. 1t
gives special privileges to indiVidu-
ais and corporations which enable
them to gain control of certain COM
modities. That is putting the milk
where the cats can get 1t. Instead
Of urging that these privileges be
abolished our candidates suggest that
the privileged ones be sent to Jail Of
they make use of the power foolishly
bestowed upon them.

lem. He declares that he sees the
solution in a process by which re-
sponsibility for their acts will be
placed on individuals in control of
them ana these individuals held Grim
inally liable. That is the same false
remedy which trust servants, mas
querading as antitrust men, contin-
ually suggest, as we'll as some sin
cere but misguided opponents of
trusts. If that is the policy Of the
Wilson administration the trusts will
be in business at the old stand at the
end of his term, as prosperous and
oppressive as they are today. What
ever may have happened during that
time to individuals interested in them,
the trust system will be left intact.
Jail treatment has not eliminated
or 1esened burglary, highway robbery,
pocket-picking, sneak thieVery, bunco
steering, embezzlement or other forms
of petty stealing, although these
crimes hold but small rewards in
prospect to those who resort to them.
How then can any man with common
sense hope to make a successful use
of the same method in striving to
! eliminate or lessen form of robbery
that may yield to the one resorting
to it the fortune of Rockefeller or
Carnegie? The very most that crimi-
nal prosecution Of trust magnates
can accomplish is to remove from
trust management all whose dread OF
Imprisonment is stronger than desire
flor gain. That would leave. the con

The more skill needed in the work,
the greater the mental process which
precedes the expression Of it. So far
as your committee has ben able, to
learn, there is no method known to
scientific management by which a
time study can be made Of the men

The elements OF the mental process
not being susceptible Of determination

RAIL w Az
NIEDIT ATORS

London, March 20. The success Of
Sir George Askwith as q mediator and
conciliator in labor controversies has
inspired the London and Northwestern
Railway company to appoint an Off
cial whose duties win be analogous,
but Of course, confined exclusively to
the affairs Of the company. The du-
ties deYolying upon this official viii
be to receive and attempt to remedy
all grievances before they become ag-
gravated, The company now assumes
to meet the complaints 'of the men
that minor officials have been in the
habit OF aggravating instead Of rem
edying. Other departments Of the
railway welcome this innovation, for
the new position created will carry
with it considerable authority to or
der changes whenever necessary, and
thus relieve the other departments Of
dealing with these matters. The men
employed by the railway are also
pleased with this change, as they vel
come any opportunity which promises
fair and reasonable consideration Of
their grievances without interference
from petty officialdom. The new meth
cd will also guarantee to the men a
more speedy consideration than was
possible under former methods. 1t is
also announced that other railroad COM
panies are considering the establish
ment of a similar department.

NEW YORK
BEGINS WAR ON
BASEBALL POOLS
BY The United Press.

By The United Press.
NEW YORK, May 9-The belated
discovery Of baseball pools has
aroused the authorities and today
steps are being taken here to bring
about the end of such gambling Last
year some gamblers attempted tho
same thing that is being put through
now. Then they were bolder and
started off by sending booklets, de-
scribing their plans. through the
mails. A town in Pennsylvania was
selected as the home of the gambling
corporation and offices We're being
opened for business when the officers
of the Department Of Justice from
Washington arrived
The preliminary investigation here
has discovered that the baseball pool
is today as firmly established in New
York as was the policy game which
ruthlessly robbed New York's poor IN
the past before it was killed. The
authorities have been unable up to tho
present to find any central organlza-
tion or any head to this newest
gambling scheme. Office boys, ele
vator men and BARRIERS are acting as
agents, but the police appear to be
unable TO find the chiefs.
The success of the promoters has
been such that already scores of pools,
each Independent of the other, have
been organized.
