NOTES OF PRESIDENT MITTEN's TALK
TO p. r. T. EMPLOYEES

With employees satisfied and public we'll served,
with P. R. T. property built up, and the equiv
alent OF 90 earned upon P. r. r. $3OOOOOOO
paid iii capital, cooperative accomplishment has
reached the goal set for it in 1911
With great accomplishment to Our credit, we
have conc together this evening to consider
cooperative pledge for the future, through which
Men and Management will take another forward
step in cooperative accomplishment.
P. r. r. Men and Management today stand
out as best qualified to work out practicable
and satisfactory apportionmcnt as between
capital and labor, OF added income produced
through cooperative effort.
J. X. I. Men and Management can undoubted-
ly repeat the good work OF 1921 and produce
net income Of 81 $4,000 for 1922. which is the
amount required to pay dividend OF 60 on
P. r. I. capital stock.
Operating costs of 1922 can, am sure, be
reduced at least sl,50OOOo b. extra effort of Men
and Management and this without any lesscnns
Of service.
The Cooperative Plan OF 1918 provides wages
based upon the average OF four cties-Chicaeo
Cleveland. Buffalo and Detroit, which assures
proper comparison with wages paid elsewhere.
The four-city average will continue as the wage
base, and this would be quite all right in pay
ment for ordinary service; but to my mind,
P. r. T. employees, having put P. r. T. again on
the map as a result of ten years cooperative
effort are now entitled to participate in the
financial result of further cooperative accomp-
Gshmcnt.
The Plan which propose to submit for ap-
proval OF p. r. T. stockholders provides that
cooperating employees receive in recognition of
cooperative accomplishment, a cooperative
dividend. limited to the added net income pro-
