Business principles is Gods work, and
therefore again the proper work of
Christianity
2, In all industrial establishments
the owners, directors, superintendent,
managers, foremen, and the rank and
file of all other workers are under abb
so,ute obligation to regard and treat
each other as members Of the uniyers-
al Brotherhood of Man.
g. Each one so engaged in any in
dustry must be true co-operator in
all processes of production of opera
ton of the business. The very fact
that they are associated together in
such industries is actual proof that
they are fellow workers and cooper
ators.
4. Employers must use their means
in all fairness, for the mutual interests
of themselves and of all the workers,
OF whatever grade, as brothers and CO.
operators.
5. Every worker of all grades must
have personal conscience and pride
in the quality and quantity of produc-
ton, and in the efficiency of operation
and costs of production.
6. The Brotherhood Of Man, as APP
piled to industry, definitely includes
the right and privilege of all workers
Of all grades to present their difficult
ties and suggestions to the sympath-
etc hearing Of the employer on the
one hand, or to the employees on the
other.
7. The Brotherhood of Man recog-
nizes the brotherhood of the workers
in their rights to organize themselves
for mutual benefit, and for the logica!
means by which they may give voice
to their rights, both to the public and
to their employers; in the right to
maintain an effective organization for
al legitimate purposes, such as for
council, methods of procedure, form
ulating OF principles and activities,
both in local and in national matters.
But all in the spirit of the Brother
hood of Man and for the common
good.
s. The Brotherhood Of Man also
recognizes the brotherhood of the en-
ployers in the right to organize them
logical means by which they may give
voice to their rights, both to the pub
lie and to their employees; in the
right to maintain an effective organ
ization for all legitimate purposes such
as for council, methods Of procedure,
formulating Of principles and activi-
ties, both local and national, but all in
the spirit of the Brotherhood of Man
and for the common good.
8. On this basis, the brotherhood
of the workers and the brotherhood of
the employers must logically meet to-
gether on equal terms at regular or
specta! tines for council, methods Of
procedure, formulating of principles
ticnal affairs, and also for the AMIGA
bic presentati ton and settlement of diff
ficulties or misunderstanding which
might arise On either side, But ALWAYS
in the spirit Of the Brotherhood of
Man and for the common good.
10. Any system Of cooperation be.
tween employers and employees which
fits any given industry, and is salts
factory to both, is essentially Chris
tan if based on Brotherhood princi
pies.
II. Based on Brotherhood princi
pies, both the employees and employ
ers' organizations would become more
Of necessity than even now under
the recent conditions, as they would
become the medium Of good will am
ong themselves respectively and be
tween the two sets Of organizations
each working with and for each othel
and for the common good
~. This Brotherhood of Man is the
one remedy for all industrial problems
and all difficulties can be settled b.
the application of these principles.
All other means and policies during
the history of the world have utteri,
failed. The Church claims to have thu
key to the entire round of human pro
blems. The world believes her.
