HUMAN SIDE OF THINGS

Chicago Daily News-At this time
when the utmost efforts are being put
forth to establish ~permanency of good
will In industrial relations, intense in.
terest attaches to the recent strike
at the plant of William Demuth e.
Co. at Brooklyn Moor, Long Island.
". Y, makers CT pipes for smoking.
This was one OF the earliest of Ameri
can firms to adopt the ~so-called Leitch
plan OF industrial government, in
volving the representation of all human
elements Of a factory in a plant gov
eminent consisting of house, senate
and cabinet. Great praise has lately
been given to this plan and partic-
larry to it's adaptation to the Demuth
plant. where it was established more
than two years ago. The idea OF the
Leitch plan Is to introduce virtual
self-government for workers, or at
least to give them an audible voice
in company management. AS de-
scribed by William L. Chenery in the
Survey, the plan is substantially this:
"A congress and q cabinet were set
up. The congress consisted of a house
and a senate. The house, with about
thirty members, was made up OF rep
resentatives Of the workers. The n
ate was composed of the foremcn.
The cabinet was made up of the ex-
ecutive officers Of the Arm, with the
president OF the corporation as its
presiding officer. The analogy to the
form of our government is obvious,

TREATY RATIFICATION

Officials in Washington ~professed
to have no information as to the rea-
sons for the postponement of the
exchange at Paris of ratifcations of
the treaty of Versailles by Great
Britain, France, Italy and Germany,
which would have brought the treaty
into immediate force. There was a
suggestion that ratification had been
postponed because the league of ma
tons would have to assemble within
within fifteen days after the treaty
went into effect, but state depart.
ment officials would not express an
opinion on this point. Those asserting
that the league must meet within IF
teen days after The treaty takes eff
feet pointed TO article As of the docu-
ment. which provides for the appoint.
ment of a commission within that
time to fixe the limitation line of the
Saar basin, which is to be admins
tered by a commission representing
the league. The boundary commits
sion is to be composed of FIVE mem.
bers, three TO be appointed by the
council of the league and one each
by France and Germany. The league
covenant arranges that the league
council shall consist of representatives
of the five great powers, the United
States, Great Britain, France, Italy
and Japan, and of Belgium, Brazil,
Greece and Spain. Only three of
these nations have ratified the treaty.
While protesting to have no official
information on the subject, officials
said they assumed that If the treaty
were put into force with only three
of the allied and associated powers
completing ratification, those powers
would proceed with the organization
of the league. Directly the peace
treaty m into force, many of its
clauses will become effective. Chief
among these it that requiring Ger

will doubtless be found the explana-
