Urges Voice for Labor
In Business Concerns
Industrial Democracy Writer
Favors Giving Dividends on
Top of Wages

The crisis that has arisen between
capital and labor can be solved salts
factorily only by giving the workers a
voice in the management Of the af-
fairs Of the concern by which they are
employed, John Leitch, author Of "Man
to Man." and other works dealing with
industrial democracy, told the Brook
Ign Chamber of Commerce yesterday.
Mr.. Leitch said that he believed
the stories that the employees wanted
all the profits Of the business for
themselves were false and were cir
culated by agitators for their own ends.
"What they really want" he said, "is
dividends on top of wages for services
performed"
One of the contributing causes to
the present acute situation, the speak
err continued, was the blindness of the
American business man in years past.
"He has been too busy amassing
money and caring for his machinery"
be said to give a thought to his most
valuable assets-his men.
Labor does not understand capital
and vice versa. They Will come to a
better understanding when they pool
their interests. BY that, mean
they must cooperate. Both sides are
willing to do the proper thing, but
labor is without q head. These people
are forced to accept the leadership of
radicals. who by lying and classifying
have induced them to throw down their
tools and strike.
On one plant have in mind, 80
per cent Of the workers went out be-
cause they were afraid of the remain
ing 10 per cent of the radical element
They feared the radicals knife. If
they had had leader they would not
