Constant Labor Surplus.

Mr.. Lichty gave as one result that
so per cent of all men hired at the
steel works in 1923 had previously
served in the employ of the com
pany." Instead of having a labor short
age, the company had had "a constant
surplus"
Except during the peak of war
demands" Mr.. Lichty said of this re-
duced labor turnover, "our company
has had no labor shortage since long
before the world war"
Joint conferences, he found, had
demonstrated that generally ques-
tions which might at first appear to
be of interest to one side only are
really of mutual concern" The ac-
complished fact of actual personal
contact between the men and their
employers invariably progressed from
mutual understanding to mutual con-
f1denCe and then to adjustment of
disagreements, with a minimum of
friction"

CLAIM LABOR PLAN
PREVENTS TROUBLE
Colorado Fuel and Iron Com
pany Points to 10 Years
Unbroken Peace.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. January 27.-Em-
ployes' representation in the Colora-
do Fuel and Iron Co, as approved
by John D. Rockefeller jr., and criti-
cized in a preliminary report of the
Russell Sage Foundation, had pro-
duced unbroken industrial peace
after 1t was introduced by the COM
pany in 1915, according to A. H.
Lfchty, vice president.
For more than eight years." said
Vice President Lichty in a statement
made public here through the Ameri-
can Management Association, every
question arising between the en-
ployes and management in the COM
pany had been adjusted by peaceful
and harmonious methods to the gen
eral satisfaction of all concerned
Mr.. Lichty in Denver authorized
the association by wire to publish his
company's side of the question. which
had been raised by the Russell Sage
Foundation investigators.
Room for Improvement.
Mr.. Lichty shared Mr.. Rockefeller's
view that carefully as the joint rep
resentation plan had been worked
out, experience would undoubtedly
develop ways of improving 1t.
Mr.. Lichty said the Colorado Fuel
and Iron Co. introduced the joint
plan in October, 1915, after its mu-
tual ratification by employees and the
company directorate. II applied 70
a working force OF from 10000 to
10000 workers, representing 81 ma
tionalities, employed in 70 dlnerent
communities in Colorado and Wyom-
ing.
only one important case had since
Ibeen carried to the State industrial
Commission, a wage adjustment nego-
tIated between employees and the
management, he said, and the COM
mission. after careful investigation,
approved the decision that was first
proposed within our organization.
Saying that more and more the
questions arising between the en-
ployes and the local management
were being adjusted at the source,
Mr. Lichty continued.
Rather than have q highly cen
tralized industrial relations depart
ment, we believe that responsibility
for the carrying out of the purposes
of joint representation should be
recognized as a legitimate part of the
regular duties of every operating Of
fetal, from the president of the COM
pany out to the least important straw
boss.
Mana cement has the responsible
ity for taking the initiative in de-
veloping increasingly right relations
within it's organization. When this
is done, almost invariably very sat
isfaCtory response will come from
the employees The right thing per-
sistently done in the right spirit will
sooner or later bring the desired
results"

AS Canaday, husband of Mrs. Yir-
ginia Canaday, resisted in the courts

Of his own state in response TO my
request upon a charge Of kidnapping
this child from Texas. don't think he
has the right to complain il l refuse
the same remedy which he seeks to
have used against his good wife, the
mother of his children. -
IF he wants his children, they are
in Texas, and if he wants to come
back to Texas and resort to legal pro-
ceedings TO obtain possession Of them
l am sure the courts of Texas will give
every consideration to his legal rights.
But whatever his rights to the chill
dren are, will not permit him to
use the governors office of this state
to visit his spleen upon his wife by
returning her to the state, Of New
York, there to be further prosecuted
by en- ungrateful husband.
AS Canaday denied the right of
Governor Smith TO send him back
to Texas, I shall give him a dose of his
own medicine and deny him the right
to carry his good wife back to New

Mrs. Canaday back TO New York in

left the massive Texas capitol with a

the whole matter was merely based

EAST CROCKETT
STREET WILL
Be OPENED
Mayor Says Park Will Be
Divided Despite Protest
Of Ray Lambert.

East Crockett street will be opened
through Alamo Plaza.
Mayor John W. Tobin declared
Wednesday that the petition request
ing the extension of the street would
be granted over Park Commissioner
Ray Lamberts veto.
Commissioner Lambert has been op
posed to the project since the presen'
tation of the petition last winter.
Tuesday Commissioner Lambert de
clared the extension will mean the
ruination of the park adjacent to the
Alamo.
There is not another park in the
United States like Alamo Plaza, and
it would be mistake, in my opinion,
TO divide it with East Crockett street.
Il have the petition which was re-
ferred to me several months ago and
/ am ready to recommend that it be
refused.
"They will never get my consent
for the extension, and it is up to them
to vote me down." he asserted, referr-
ing to the city commissioners.
Street Commissioner Paul Steffler
reported Wednesday that the widening
of East Crockett street was about
completed.
The curbing is being put in at a
lot on East Crockett and Alamo
streets. The last portion of the thor
oughfare will be paved and widened
when the curbins is in, Commissioner
Steffler said.
Mayor Tobin, before his definite
statement Wednesday, had intimated
the street would be cut through.
1t is understood all the city COM
misSioners, except Mr.. Lambert, will
vote with the mayor.

For the lure of the old swimmin'
hole and the call of the Boy Scout
bugle have caused one bench in the
Fourth Court of Civil Appeals to be
empty, while Hizzoner goes scouting
with the rest of the boys.
And when reveille at dawn brings
the dead" to life in the camp, Scout
w. s. Fly is the first ''boy" up and
the first to tackle the chilly waters of
the pool. A swim every morning at
o'clock isn't such a bad record for
the Oldest Scout!
"REG'LAR TELLER.
"See that swell-lookin' ossifer over
there? That's the Judge" say the
Scouts proudly to strangers, and the
same strangers have to look long and
hard before they can distinguish the
judicial parsonage from the other boys,
for the judge wears the same regalia,
khaki, sunburn and everything, that
the rest of the fellows wear.
"A reg'lar feller," say the Scouts of
the Judge. And. "they're great boys"
the judge says of the boys. So there
you are.
MANAGES CAMP.

I'm having a grand time, all right,
but I'm doing anything but loafing.
Just imagine having to keep $50 boys
properly managed, with them doing
$50 different things in $50 different
ways at the same time-and things no.
body on earth but the boys would
think of! Mothers will understand"
But the judge doesn't have any trou-
BILE managing" those boys. Not a bit.
A little incident in camp can best ex-
plain how he does it
Two cotton-headed youngsters who
had been bad" in some way, hence
sentenced not to go swimming that aft

Fly's tent.
IDOL OF SCOUTS.
please, sir, J-1ge, we can't 90
swimmin' and we want to, and we
promise 10 be good if you'll let US go"
the spokesman said.
The camp commander, Arthur Mi
chael, was sitting there with dubious
expression on his face. Judge Fly,
noticing that clemency might not be
forthcoming from Mr.. Michael, leaned
over just trifle and whispered to the
commander
''Psstl Let 'em go!"
The boys went. One more case had
been settled "out Of court" by the
Judge.
Judge Fly has been president of the
council since 1919. He is the idol Of
the Scouts, and Scoutism is his hobby.
Therefore his visit with the boys, his
work as a Civics instructor and as
official justice dispenser in the camp,
is a treat ne enjoys annually. And
whenever a bunch of jolly good fellows
get together, to do some sport or to
have some fun, the judge is always in
the thick of il.

the judge.
