WASHINGTON, Jan. "A Plumb
plan for all American industry mod
eled after the plan OF the same name
for the railroads. has been prepared
and is expected TO be publicly an
nounced soon
Copies of the plan captioned An
Industrial Program BY Glenn T.
Plumb" are being circulated in Wash
inston and some have been received ln
governmental offices. Briefly. the
plan proposes for all American indus
try the system of tri-parUite railroad
the backing of the great brotherhOoGs
and which. it has been announced
would be made an issue at the cleo
tions. 1t proposes. practically. the
same division OF representation for
capital, labor and the public.
Industry Divided Into Glasses
Industry is classed into four divi-
sions in this summary:
l. Those individuals in owner
ship and operation including the
farmer and the small artisan,
small contractor and manufacture,
who is both capitalist, laborer and
consumer.
2. All industries "formerly in
dividualistic, but which through
organization have so developed
that ownership is separated from
labor and concerns itself only in
direction and supervision of pro-
duction in which il engages the
efforts of others who have
share in ownership"
3. Industries based upon
grant from society in the shape of
franchise, grant of privilege or
monopoly" In this division are
included all public service corpo-
rations except those engaged in
interstate commerce land all in
dustries engaged in exploiting
natural resources" These latter
are described including mines,
gas and water power.
4. Railroads and commercial
transportation facilities. The plan
explains that these are considered
separately from the public ser
vice facilities embraced in the third
division because the former are
"under local control created by
local authorities and subject to
local regulation"
The fundamental interests, in
these industries, the Plumb plan de-
clares. lis the need of society f0r the
products of that industry or the serV-
ice which it renders, that calls the in
dustry into training. In the first two
classes where society has made no
grant, the free working of the law Of
supply and demand projects the public
interest"
Defines public Interest"
Public interest" is defined in the,
follows:
TT is the right of the public to OBJ
tain better cheaper or more products
or service as the progres of the arts
permits the making of more or better
goods or service at a lower cost of
production. The constitution denies
the power of the public so to eNer-
else its power of regulation as to de-
prive the owner of the property of his
investment, actually, honestly ana
prudently made. or of a fair return
on such investment. If society pays
more than this amount which the
owner retains as a profit, society pays
more than it lawfully is required 10
pay and the owner receives more than
he is lawfully entitled 10 receive.
This" says the Plumb plan. in

campaign of the department of justice.
officials of the four big railroad
brotherhoods and the railroad shop
crafts, affiliated with the American
Federation of Labor, have decided TO
see:, a solution for themselves through
cooperation in buying production and
distribution. The step was construed
in some quarters as indicating that de-
mands for further wage increases
would not be pressed pending outcome
of the experiment.
Details of the cooperative scheme
have not yet been completed but plans
have been under consideration since
the farmer-labor conference at Chi J.
cago in November. Another confer
ence will be held in Chicago February
12-15.

the brotherhood representatives had
come to obtain first hand information
regarding results achieved by the de-

him what their organizations planned
TO do to solve their own problems Of

Indications that pressure from rail

might be lessened, was seen in a state

an increase in pay will not solve the
problem" Jewell asserted that higher
wages, accompanied by a proportionate
raise in prices. results in a vicious
circle which leaves the railroad man
