for the well-being of our people and
the security of civilization action
must be based on these fundamentals
in time of peace as well as in time

made that Vice President Marshall, OF
some cabinet officer other than the
head of the Labor Department, should
open the deliberation to avoid any ap-

as one who would be satisfactory to

gineers, whose spokesman is Harring-
ton Emerson, former professor in the
University Of Nebraska and later efii-
cheney engineer for the Santa Fe
| railroad system. This communication,
made public last night in New
York, says that the present Industrial
unrest is due to the system permit
ting 1.-The acquisition of wealth for
which no adequate service has been
rendered"
They assert that the remedy for
the unsettled conditions lies in the
elimination of 'all unfair privilege
of employer or employe" and remov-
ing from selfish or incompetent
ducing the necessities of life or sup
plying public service.
You have been called together by
President Wilson," the letter says,
because, in his own words. we are
facing a danger greater than war it
SELF and you have been charged with
the responsibility Of formulating a
plan to meet the present crisis.
I'VE deem it our responsible duty
to you and to the people of our coun-
try to direct attention to those
fundamental principles without which
industrial peace cannot be permanent
ly established.
Explains Cause of Unrest.
"The prevalent unrest in industry
results from a system which permits
the acquisition of wealth, for which
no adequate service has been rem
dered, and tolerates special privilege,
with the resulting exploitation of
men, women and children.
Great powers have been used ar
bitrarily and automatically to exact
unmerited profit or compensation by
both capital and labor. This policy
of exacting profit rather than rem
dering service has wasted enormous
stores of human and natural re-
sources, and has put in places Of au-
thority those who seek selfish ad-
vantage, regardless of the interests
of the community.
Remedies Suggested.
ITO remove these evils and to Sc
cure the conditions that will promote
further economic development. we
must:
81. Eliminate all unfair privilege OF
employer or employe, and make busi-
ness and industry fulfill their re-
sponsibilities to the community.
"2. Free all industries producing
socially necessary commodities or
supplying public service from selfish
or incompetent autocratic control
