Governor Cox's declaration that
I'VE need a definite and precise state
ment of policy as to what business men
and working men may do and may not
do by way of combination and collec-
tive action" is timely. Until recently
collective action has been largely one
sided. Labor has acted collectively
while the employer of labor has acted
individually and alone. This situa-
ton now appears to be undergoing
change. Employers are organizing
and preparing to pr up united front
one of the first results of their action
may be the open shop. That is an
end which they have in view 1t is
time that the pubIics rights be clearly
defined as well as those of workers
and employers.
