ORGANIZED LABOR URGED TO STUDY
EVERY PHASE OF POWER PRODUCTION

By International Labor News Service.
Ell PASO, Texas, Nov. 27.-Re-
commendation that the labor move
ment Of the United States keep itself
fully informed on the power situation
is made in q report submitted to the
American Federation of Labor con-
vention by James P. Noonan and
Timothy Healy, labor representatives
to the first World Power Conference,
held in London, June 80 to July II.
Mr.. Hoonan who is president of the
International Brotherhood of Electri-
cal Workers, and Mr.. Healey, who is
president Of the international Broth
erhood Of firemen and Oilers, also
recommended that labor should seek
representation at all future con-
ferenees on power. They express the
opinion that further world meetings
on power will be held and that in time
councils viii be developed to shsre
policies and courses of action.
Report on Conference Aims
The reprot of Mr.. Noonan and Mr..
Healey is in part as follows:
Because this was the first World
Power Conference held; because it was
entirely different from the other de-
Lucrative bodies to which labor sends
representatives; and in order that
some understanding of the conference
maye be arrived at; we deem it essen
tial to quote the announced purpose
and end of the conference:
The purpose of the World Power
Conference is to consider how the in
dustrial and scientific sources of
power may be adjusted nationally and
internationally;
by considering the potential re-
sources of each country in hydro
electric power, oil and minerals.
BY comparing experience in the
development of scientific agriculture,
irrigation, and transportation by land,
air and water.

ECONOMIC RESEARCH TO
INVESTIGATE GROWTHOF
AMERICAN TRADE UNION

By international Labor News Service.
NEW, YORF CITY, Nov, 27.-An
exhaustive Investigation Of the growth
of American trade unionism has
just been completed by the National
bureau of Economic Research, Inc,
which was recognized in 1920 to make
impartial studies Of economic, social
and industrial problems. John F. Fry,
editor of the Molders' Journal and
president of the Ohio State Fedora
tion of Labor, is president of the bu-
reau, and its directors by appointment
include Hugh Frayne, New York re-
preventative of the American Feder-
alton Of Labor.
The data reveals the extent and
character of changes in the member
ship of American trade unions in the
last ID years. Data from more than
800 different sources have been as
sembled. The membership of every
union of Importance has been traced
year by year. In the period covered,
1880 to 1923 inclusive, this means in
some cases from the birth to the
death of a particular union.
Birdseye Picture OF Movement
How many unions have survived the
vicissitudes of the last four decades,
how many have gone out of existence,
and how many have grown with the
years, will be presented in detail in
the report.
A birdseye picture Of the American
trade union movement, from the
stormy days Of its origin, through
periods of prosperity and depression,
up to the present time, will thus be
available in the form of absolute fig
ures of membership and relative num-
bers of comparison with other indus
trial factors.
This study was undertaken as one
Of series of inquiries into the social
and economic affects Of changing con-
dltions of business.
Scope of Study Is BrOadened
As progress was made in the col
lection Of materials, it became clear
that the treatment of these materials
should not be restricted to a discus
sion of the influence of the business
cycle on the movement of trade union
membership. In this range of social
phenomena, factors other than busi-
ness prosperity or depression some
times play a controlling role. Public
policy, development in foreign coun-
tries, great strikes, all exert power
full influence on the rise and decline
in the membership of trade unions.
The detailed facts Of the changes in
the numbers affiliated with labor or
ganizations and their analysis have
not up to now been found in any
single convenient place. For these
reasons there was made a more elab-
crate collection Of statistics than
would have been required for a simple
analysis Of the relation between the
business cycle and changes in union
membership.
