COMMERCE BODY
FOR OPEN SHOP

Washington, July 31.-By an over
whelming referendum vote, the mem
bership of the Chamber of Commerce
of the United States has adopted a
platform on Industrial relations.
which, among other things, declares
for the right of "open shop operation
of industry and for making labor or
ganizations the same as organizations
of employers, legally responsible to
others for their conduct and that of
their agents.
Answering two allied propositions
submitted at the same time, the
members took a position that strikes
in public utility operation should be
forbidden by law, and that tribunals
should be set up with the power to
fix wages and working conditions for
employees of utilities. The results of
both votes were made public today by
the. chamber.
