INCOMPETENT HEADS IN ARRANGEMENTS
 CAUSE BIG WASTE
Will Always Be Industrial Turmoil Under Present System,
 Says Perkins.

Chicago, July 2I.-"There can be no fast and just and set system of production and distribution until a more practicable, concise system has been devised and put into operation,' writes George w. Perkins, president of the Cigar Makers International Union, in the official magazine of that organization.
 "The unscientifc, haphazard, plan less plan now in vogue must be sup planted by a system which eliminates the rightful-almost criminal-Waste in industry.
 "Chief among these are the waste in management, seasonal periods Tn occupations, the turnover system and control of the credit system by the privileged few.
 The remedies for these ills are now at hand. It is a crime if they are not put into force.
 Some of the frightful and mex cusable defects of the present system are set forth in the book entitled Waste in Industry prepared by committee of the Federated American Engineering Societies, appointed by Herbert Hoover. This committee in vestigated several basic industries, and reported that low production was due to faulty material control; to lack of standardization in production; to faulty production control; to lack of cast control; to lack of research; to faulty labor control ito lack of op- portunity for training of proficient workmen, and to faulty sales policies.
 'It is also found that lost produc- ton was largely attributable to i'll health of the workers, at least AZ per cent. of which was preventable by proper management. It likewise dis covered that lost production was due to industrial accidents, 75 per cent. of which could be avoided by ade- quate safety measures.
 "The committee estimated that time lost through preventage illness totaled $50, ,ooo days, and that time lost through industrial accidents amounted to 296,ooo,ooo days. In oth-
The Connecticut labor news., 1922-07-21

CT words, of the 42,ooo,ooO men and women gainfully employed, on an av- craze of I5 to I6 days were lost to each of them annually because of faulty management.
 'In addition, the committee reveal ed the astounding fact that of the 500, 900 workers that die annually, probably the death of one-half could be postponed and that of the 23,ooo fatal accidents at least I8,ooo could be avoided by efficient management. It IS difficult to conceive more h1deous criminal indictment.
 This committee likewise investi- gated the much-heralded restrictions of trade unions upon production, While the committee did not venture an opinion upon the advisability or necessity of these restrictions, 1t did find that the economic waste occas- toned By these restrictive measures amounted to less than 25 per cent, while management was held to be re- sponsible for approximately GO per cent.
 Thus it is evident, from reliable data scientifically ascertained, that the charge made against the trade unions for the curtailment of production is true only to limited degree. It is evident that this degree of lost production is incompatible with the economic waste and destruction of human life that may rightfully be against employers and man aoement"

Open Shop De6ed
 By Arkansas Mayor
Demand That Unions Be Barred on
 City Contract Gets Quick Reply.

Efforts to force city officials of Lit tie Rock, Ark, to rescind an order requiring that only union labor be employed in the construction of a new city hospital failed because Mayor Brickhouse could not be brought under pressure.
 The issue arose when the Builders Exchange addressed resolutions to council demanding that the hospital be built under "open shop conditions The exchange represented that "every bank and nearly all business con cerns in the city are ardent support CTS of the open shop as sufficient reason for its demand
 Mayor Brickhouse, however, takes the position that union workers are also an important part of the public and are entitled to some considera- ton.
 The union clause in the hospital contract was inserted, the mayor says, in recognition of the generosity shown by labor unions during the campaign for funds 10 erect it. Many thousands of dollars were contributed by labor rganizations, the mayor declares, and he deemed 4'it only jus tice that the unions should have share in building the hospital"

Court Stops Slash
 of Brewers Wages

Eight Cleveland brewers have been enjoined by a common pleas court from reducing wages in violation of their contract with the workers. The court declared it's decision was based upon the Coronado opinion of the Federal Supreme Court
 Under an agreement signed Febru- ary I, 1921, with the Brotherhood of Stationary Bremen and Oilers, the men were to receive 75 cents an hour The agreement was for one year and automatically renewable for another year unless one of the parties gave a written notice to the contrary. The breweries reduced the pay to 64 cents an hour without terminating the agreement and the union sued
 Timothy Healy, president of the union, gave his personal attention to the litigation, regarding it as mark ing new phase of labor's efforts to defend it's rights.

Y., this week and the entire factory will even tually be moved here. It will employ from 100 to I5o men and women nor mally and will expect to secure what help it can get here, instructing learn CTS, besides bringing some employees with it.
 The factory will manufacture san dals, shoes and overgaiters and IS ex- pected to prove a valuable addition to the manufacturing concerns of this city.

ACCIDENTS

In 1919 there occurred in indus try about 23,ooo fatal accidents, about 575,ooo non-fatal accidents causing four weeks or more of dis ability and 3,ooo,ooo accidents caus- ing at least one days disability. The figures for 1918 were about I3 per cent. higher.
 The time lost is estimated to be 2o6,ooo,ooo days. Allowing for an average wage of $4 per day during the time actually lost, adding an esti- cause of disability or death, but sub tracting the subsistence of those killed, this gives an economic loss to the country of about $853 3,ooo,o ,ooo for, the year 1919.
 This is not the whole loss charge able to accidents.
 In one state Wisconsin, the costs to employers for medical and surgi- cal aid and hospitals bills, and the overhead expenses of insurance, equaled SC per cent. of the actual compensation paid to workmen. The compensation paid the workmen was about 22 per cent. of the total actual and prospective wage loss. Records from other states indicate that this is probably typical. On this basis the total direct cost of industrial acci- dents in the United States in 1919, including medical aid and insurance overhead, was not less than $I,oI4,- 100000. Of this $34o,ooo,ooo was borne by empolyers and $665 ,ooo, 900 by employees and their dependents.
 These approximate figures are low because they do not include medical expenses incurred by workmen and h,, T, ance company; overhead cost or per sonal accident insurance carried by workmen; cost of training new men to take the place of those injured; employment and welfare department expenses in keeping track of injured workmen and their families. The addition of these items would bring the total well over a billion do1lar> per year.
 In this calculation no account has been taken of the indirect loss of pro duction due to the stoppage or slow ing up of work when an accident occurs This affects not only the operation at which the man is in jured, but associSscd operations as well. It applies also to "near-accl- dents' in which no personal injury occurs.
 Experience indicates, and authori- ties agree, that 75 per cent. of these losses could be avoided, with a sav- ing in direct, clearly ascertained losses alone of a quarter of billion dollars per year to employers, and half a billion to .employes.
 An official of a large insurance company believes that by proper safety measures, the waste due to accidents in the building industry can be reduced 75 to So per cent. in two to five years of earnest effort, and that construction labor cost can be cut 3 per cent. by these measures. Another official estimates, from actual accomplishments in safety measures, that total of more than I2 2,ooo,ooo days a year could be saved the industry by the application of safety methods In certain industries, on the other hand, such as boot and shoe manufacturing, accidents are in ignifcant-From Waste in Industry, Federated American Engineering So- cities.

BRITAIN IS FACING
 GRAVE CRISIS DUE
 TO UNEMPLOYMENT
Hundreds of Millions Already Spent For Relief-Additiona1 Sums
 Allotted

London, July 21,-The unemploy- ment situation is becoming desperate Up to date the British government has expended approximately $4oo ,ooo,- 900 in relief to the jobless and is planning to spend $25o, o,ooo, ,ooo more.
 In addition the poor law guardians have expended a total of more than S2Oo, ,oOo, ,oOo.
 In many sections of the country the guardians are at the end of their f. nancial resources and they are ap- pealing to the government to assist them. Up to date Prime Minister Lloyd George has refused To do SO, he says, would mean an increase in the income tax of nine pence on the pound
 Perhaps the worst feature If the situation is, what is known here as the "gap in relief" After a worker has received unemployment dole for five weeks he is denied assistance for five weeks. During that time he must be sustained by private charity or starve.
 Coal Miners Hard Hit.
 The situation is especially bad in South Wales among the coal miners. These Welsh miners have been among the most militant or Br1t1Sn trades unionsts, and 1t is said that the colliery owners, in order to pun ish them, are abandoning their mines The misery in that section is hard to describe. Evelyn Sharp, a noted writer, has attempted the task She tells of two women who have gone mad and of mothers who are com pelled to fashion their children's clothes out of table cloths and cur tains Hike the German housewives during the war"
 They do not want us to live. They want to break us because the miners of Wales are peculiarly self-re specting and independent set," said. one old coal digger. In support of his contention he pointed out that in the vicinity of Blaine, Wales, the owners have abandoned the mines al though there was sufficient coal in the ground to keep the miners going for 50 years.
 "The owners said they could not work the ptis at a profit, but when the miners offered to combine and pay the usual royalties the owners simply ignored the proposition"

IS TRUTH UNKNOWN
 TO GOV. ALLEN?
His Latest Outburst So Far From It
 as to Cause Query.

Pittsburgh, Kan, July 2I--"Is the truth unknown to Governor Allen?" asks the Workers Chronicle in it's comment on the governors latest outbllrst in a New York banquet on the Kansas "can't-strike" law
 The shame of 1t is," says the Workers Chronicle, that thousands of people will believe such false state ments just because. a governor made them, and Allen has spent more than two years bouncing all over the United States telling tales as bad, or even worse, than he is quoted above.
 "Why didn't Allen tell his audience that we have had more strikes, more troubles, more taxes, less benefits and less prosperity since the court was created?
 "Why didn't he tell them that a 100 per cent strike order is on now in Kansas, and in spite of his peonage court law?
 "Why didn't he tell them that not a single union official in Kansas has been arrested for promulgating this last 100 per cent. strike order when nearly all mines in the country are shut down?
 Why didn't he tell them that no one pays any attention to his indus trial court law?
 Why doesn't he tell the truth once in a great while, just for changer"

STRIKES

Newspapers have been print ing figures about the number of workers on, strike.
 According to these figures there are about 1,25O,O0O workers who have resorted to the strike as final protest against the arbitrary imposi- ton of unjust terms and condi- tions of work.
 The figures are approxi- mately correct.
 But the newspapers wall about the great loss involved the loss of wages, the loss of pro- duction, the loss of profits.
 Yes, principally the loss of profits.
 But who says anything about losses due to other factors?
 We print here figures about losses due to preventable acci- dent and preventable illness. Staggering hguresI
 These figures were found by engineers appointed by Her bert Hoover and these same engineers found that manage ment Is to blame for substan- tially 75 per cent. of the loss through waste in industry.
 Other enormous causes of preventable loss are excessive turnover" improper distribu- ton, faulty routing of supplies and production policies made to suit the financial market instead of the commodity market.
 Strikers are idle because a principle Is at stake. If workers never struck wages would soon be back at the sixteenth century level and workers would again live in novels and caves.
 The strike-the act of teasing work-is the modern protect against unacceptable terms and conditions, the only effective pro- test. It is not a wasteful effort. It is conserving, constructive, effort to maintain a rising standard of
