GARY is OPPOSED
TO CLOSED SHOP"
Tells Heads Of Subsidiary Conference
Why He Refused to Meet Repre-
sentatives of Unions.

PITTSBURGH, Sept. 1S.-A letter
from Chairman f. H. Gary, addressed
TO the Presidents of the subsidiary
companies of the United States Steel
corporation, giving the reasons for de-
elining to deal with labor unions, was
made public by the Carnegie Steel
company yesterday The letter, which
is dated New York, Sept. 16, reads:
Not long since | respectfully de-
clined to meet for the purpose of dis
cussing matters pertaining to labor at
our various plants number of gentle
men representing certain labor unions.
They claim this furnishes cause for
complaint and have stated that they in
tend, If possible, to prevent a continue
ton of operations at our mills and fac
tories.
/ deem it proper to repeat in a let
ter what heretofore has been said to
you verbally. / entertain 10 feeling
of luminosity toward the gentlemen per-
sonally and would not hesitate to meet
them as individuals, but / did not and
do not consider it proper to confer with
them under the circumstances.
The declination was made for two
reasons: First, because / did not be-
lieve the gentlemen were authorized to
speak for large numbers of our employ,
es, whose interests and wishes are of
prime Importance; secondly, because a
conference with these men would have
been treated by them as recognition
of the "elosed shop method of en-
ployment. We do not combat labor
unions as such. We do not negotiate
with labor unions because it would in
dictate the closing of our shops against
non-union labor; and large numbers of
our workmen are not members of un-
ions and do not care to be.
The principle of the "open shop is
vital to the greatest industrial prog
ress and prosperity. 1t is of equal ben.
eft to employer and employee. 1t means
that every man may engage in any line
of employment that he selects and I'M
der such terms as he and the employer
may agree upon; that he may arrange
for the kind and character of work
which he believes will bring to him
the largest compensation and the most
satisfactory conditions, depending up,
on his own merit annd disposition.
The "closed shop" means that nc
man can obtain employment in that
