Personnel WORK
: CONFERENCE TOPIC
Speaker Says Interests Of
Employer and EmpIoye
Should Merge.

Speaking on Personnel Work in
Retail Stores" before a group meet
ing Of the National Conference of So
cial Work in Calvary Baptist Church
today. George D. Halsey, personnel
director of Woodward e. Lothrop de-
partment store here. declared the in
terests Of the employer and employe
are Identical in properly planned ana
manned organizations. His address
was followed by Miss Louise c. Oden-
crantz. employment manager. Smith
& Kaufman. Inc, of New York. who
spoke on Personnel Work in Fac
tory Miss Mary Antoinette Can
non of the New York School Of Social
Work presided.
Mr. Halsey said in the past there
have been two different efforts at a
solution of the great problem of the
relation of employer and employe. The
first, he continued. took the stand that
the interests of employer and employe
were fundamentally opposite-the
former working to get all he coulo
for the lowest possible wage ana the tae
latter working to sell his services Tor
the highest possible wage.
The other attempt, Mr.. Halsey re-
lated, was on the part of the. en-
ployer "generally, though not always
sincere. who out of the goodness OF
things, such as better washrooms'
lunchrooms, free medical care, free
summer camps. free entertalnments
and other welfare activities. II the
employe should dare to ask ques-
tion about any of the activities or
about his rate OF pay. the employer
became much aggrieved and talked
about ingratitude and how things
were different when he was boy
I'VE all know" concluded Mr.
Halsey, that neither of these ex-
tremes offers solution. but some
where in between lies the road to
industrial harmony. 1t is the eff
fort of modern personnel administra-
tion to find and follow this road
taking from the foreman the sole
right to hire and fire. personnel work
is doing much to eliminate one OF
the chief causes Of labor turnover In
the United States.
Workers in general have made an
important gain through personnel
work in the opportunity it gives for
Odencrantz. An employe is no longer
dependent for his job upon the whims
of foreman. Labor turnover is a
serious disease of industry in the
United States, and while it is due to
many causes and conditions, the sole
right Of foremen to hire and fire is
one of the big contributing causes
In fact, the influence that a central
iZed personnel department has in re-
it's hands from the foremen this right
of hiring and discharge is one of
the best selling points for personnel
work in the United States

HOLDS MANS DANGER
LIES WITHIN HIMSELF
Medical Expert Tells Social Work.
ers Study of Human Lie Is
Most Vital.

Man is learning that his greatest
danger is not in the tornado or in the
epidemic, but in himself" DR.. Frank
wood f. Williams Of New York, m.adi-
cal director of the National Commit
ee fer Mental Hygiene. told a g'n-
eral session of the National Confer
ence of Social Work yesterday.
I'VE have studied the sun, moon and
stars. the earth and all it contains
except man himself said DR.. Will
liams. Millions have heen spent in
getting wage conditions, living con-
ditions. how to save man from physi-
cal ills, how to add to his staturea
weevil and hogs from the cholera.
All of this is important, but soon we
shall begin to spend few millions
on the study of man himself-not
alone how to make him live ten years
longer, but how to make those ten
years OF any other ten years worth
living.
Social workers gather facts. ar
range facts and discharge their facts
at a troubled world. We must not
only find out what are the facts, but
what is thought about the facts and
why people think about these facts
as they do. Facts cannot get by GER
tain attitudes. We must begin to
focus our attention on the signifi-
canoe and the reasons for these atti-
tudes. The next fifty years will see
this problem vigorously attacked"

EIGHT HOURS HELD
BEST WORKING DAY
Quantity and Quality Output
Keeps Up in Short Shift,
Inquirer Finds.

The eight-hour working day is bet
ter for capital, labor and industry in
general than the twelve-hour shift.
according to l.. w. Wallace. secretary
of the Federated American Engineer
ing Societies. who delivered an ad-
dress today at a group meeting of
the National Conference of Social
Work in the Public Library.
Other speakers on the general SUBJ
ject. Recent Industrial Investiga-
tions," were: Edward E. Hunt, secre-
tary of the Presidents Conference of
Unemployment and secretary of the
United States Coal Commission. and
Miss Mary Anderson, director of the
women's bureau, Department of
Labor
The eight-hour shift, said Mr.. Wal
lace, has resulted in satisfactory
Improvement of quantity and quality
Of production and in a reduction of
where good management prevailed
and the cooperation Of labor was Sc
cured.
Wages Are the Same.
In general. he continued, the ten
dency has been to increase the rate
per hour under the shorter shift, so
that the daily earnings OF the work
ers will be the same as they were
before the change. In some instances,
however, a compromise was made
whereby the workers received an in
erase in hourly rate sufficient to
compensate them for one half of the
number of hours by which the length
of the shift was shortened, he said.
Mr.. Wallace's address was based
upon the report of the committee
appointed by the engineering socie-
ties to investigate the twelve-hour
shift in American industry. and
which was indorsed by President
Harding.
Miss Anderson spoke on strenuous
work and excessive laboring hours
for women, especially mothers. In
one Of the largest industrial centers
of the United States. she said. many
women are working to bring up chill
dren; many trying to do two jobs TO
secure the necessary FUNDS TO 1eed
the family and to do the work of the
home. cooking. cleaning and sewing.
"It seems to me-" she said, that as
citizens of this country and as human
beings we are not warranted to permit
any such sacrifice by any mother.

he said:
"The program outlined gives an op-

their influence to a solution of this
vital problem. To statesmen, bank

Henry Ford says 1923 will be a
prosperous year for us all.
It will he a prosperous one for Hen
ry, anyway, because he has more or
ders for cars than his extensive
plants can possibly turn out.
We hope Henry is good prophet
hut we cannot pin our optimism to
car orders alone.
The fact that man owns an auto
mobile does not necessarily mean that
he is prosperous.
There was a time, b. T., when men
would pay their last dime for a drink
of booze. The same men might do
likewise now, were it not for the fact
that an humble dime will not even
get look in at the smell
It is much the same with automo-
biles.
People who have trouble in meeting
their grocery bills will mortgage their
breeches in order to buy car on
time and become a daily contributor
to the gasoline trust.
But at that Henry may be right.
We hope he is. But we want ct see
