overspeeding and for unnecessary
wage reductions. A worker employ

the industrial shirker-the man who

What is Cooperation?
Cooperation consists of so con-

Cooperation says that you will do
your work SO well that there will
not be the slightest doubt as to
what is expected of others.
Cooperation is making yourself
agreeable so that those about o

Cooperation is a frank, open,

Cooperation is consideration.
Cooperation dictates that you
will acknowledge authority and that
you will not %overstep the POUNDS OF
your own authority.

AS a result of the adjustment
which has confronted the business
world for many months. forty of the
leading corporations o. the country,
capitalized at yer 100000, 600,
passed dividends last year. In other
words, the individuals who had in
vested their capital in these p~articu-
lar stocks received no return on
their money. The loss t O
the stockholders, based on previous
dividends, was approximately $17,-
900, 900: in some cases, the shrink
age in values and the losses sustain
ed through poor business entirely
wiped out the profits of previous
years.
These figures should be convinc-
ing arguments against the stand pat
attitude of certain changes necessary.
1t is evident that everyone, employer
and employee alike must share in
the Feadjustment, and that manage
ment and labor must work together
to get our industries back on a sound
business basis.
Piece Work
The principles underlying the
practical application of piece-werk
appear to be gaining wider aceep-
lance as the reconstruction or Amer
lean industry proceeds. Paternalism

deed, 1t seemed that past experience
was to be thrown to the winds and
tat as an aftermath of our over
etraineF efforts to speed up produce
ton at all costs, the American man
ufacturer would find himself burden
ed with a collection of painfully
new theories pertaining to the hu-
man element in production. For
t .lat.ly, however, a number OF basic
economic principles, which for a
time were overlooked, have again
asserted themselves, and American
business Is emerging into the cold
grey dawn of the morning after with
several more or less strong convic-
tiens, not the least of which is that
a dollar must from now on buy a
dollars worth of honest work. 1t as
dawned upon most manufacturers
that through the wider application
of piece work at least a reasonable
solution of the production problem
may be looked for and the present
trend is Enthusiastically in this direc-

distinguished member Of the farm bloc

Most of the wives Of members of the
