Editorial Comment
on Current Subjects
THE PROBLEM.

From Golfers.
In every discussion of new indus
trial enterprise invariably the first
question asked is: What will labor
do?" The attitude of the workingmen,
their willingness to cooperate with
employers, the probable cost of labor,
constitute the most serious problem
that faces the progress of commerce.
But how can employers solve this
problem without consulting labor or
its representatives? We can take it
for granted that the old theory of la.
Dor as pure commodity which re-
spends exactly to the law of supply
and demand, or can be cheapened by
manipulation, has gone the way of 9TH
er absurdities of the dismal science"
1t never had place in the minds of
intelligent employers. 1t has been ut
terly destroyed by the political activ-
ity of the trades-unions here and
abroad. But, although the idea of
partnership between employers and
employees has gained ground every
where, there is no organized effort to
put the idea into practice.
Golfers has received a number of
letters from business men urging. a
national organization of employers, not
to combat the labor unions, but to
meet with them and consult with them
as to rates Of wages, hours OF work,
factory conditions, and all the other
details that provoke strikes and lock-
outs. In this matter, as In some 9TH
ers, we may gain by the experience of
England. Sir Alfred Booth, chairman
OF the Cunard lines, told US the other
day how a great strike was averted
by the action OF the British ship and
dock owners. They arranged con-
ference betwene the Transport Work
ers' Federation and the employers as
sociations, and after negotiations ex-
tending over two months an arrange
ment was reached satisfactory to both
sides. The lesson he drew from this
experience was that employers oil
every class must organize themselves
in associations for dealing with labor
affairs exclusively, with an expert
secretariat, and there should also be
national decorations of these local as
sociations. There are three reasons
for this: To prevent the prehistoric
employer from putting the fat in the
fire; to prevent the weak employer
from letting you down; to enable EN-.
ployers to meet organized labor on an
equal footing and without delay"
The last is the most important rea.
son of the three. At present there is
no common meeting ground between
employers and employees for a fair dis.
cussion Of terms. There are number.
less small associations, but too often
they are ruled by the prehistoric EN-.
ployer' who is ready TO fight the I'M
font" regardless OF the Justice Of their
demands. and who Is himself a provo
cation to the headstrong. turbulent la.
