and formal opening Of Typographical
Terrace, the new headquarters Of the
International Typographical Union
here. on January 10, J.sW. Hays, in

union. announced.
Invitation TO the various guests
have been put in the mails. The ex-
eeutive council of the union Is COM
posed of: James M. Lynch, president;
Seth R. Brown, first vice-president;
Austin Hewson, second vice-president;
Charles N. Smith, third vics-presi-
dents Hugo Miller, fourth vice-presi-
dent; J. w. Hays. secretary-treas-
urer.
The union headquarters property,
comprising five acres Of ground and
3 large stoE8 mansion, was bought
from the late Samuel T. Murdock,
millionaire traction capitalist. The
headquarters is the most preten-
tious Of any international union in
America.
In announcing the formal opening,
Secretary Hays said the union was
making great progress. sThe Typo
graphical Union spends twelve times
as much on beneficial activities as It
does on trade regulation" he said.
I'VE are endeavoring to stress the
significance of the new trend of trade
uniOnism. Our new motion picture,
His Brothers Keeper has been made
to this end and during the reception
1t headquarters We will show this
picture as revealing the operations Of
. great international trade union. .
The international typographical
Union was founded ct q convention
in Cincinnati in 1852. Local unions
Of printers were formed in the east
many years earlier. Horace Greedy
was the first president Of the New
York Typographical Union No. 8. and
Thurlow Weed was an officer in the
same organization. Both Of these
men took an active interest in the
affairs Of the union all their lives.
The growth Of the organisation has
besn stSady and sure. The intsfna-
tionaI is now composed Of subordinate
Locals in the United States, Canada,
Hawaii and Porto Rico.
Observers Of trade union affairs

LABOR MANAGEMENT
PLAN SHOWS GAIN

Cooperation between labor and
managementsin railroad shops, known
as the "B. q o. Plan," now in flourish
ing condition on the Baltimore &
Ohio, Chicago Northwestern, Cana
dian National and other railway sys-
TENS, is pointing the path toward the
democratic management of industry,
the All-American Cooperative Com
mission declares in q special review
Of reports received at its Cleveland
headquarters.
While the plan itself dbes not
embody the specific features Of the
cooperative producers movement. Il
furnishes valuable guide toward the
probable evolution of industry in the
United States from arbitrary private
ownership 70 cooperative operation
under social coAtr0l. Through the
eoopefative plan, when backed by q
strong union, the workers have been
able to obtain far more regular en-
ployment and the speedy adjustment
of disputes. Working conditions have
been made safer and more convenient
and sanitary. The work goes on in
many instances with less .exertion.
less suspicion and less antagonism.
Material formerly secured from out
side non-union firms where sweat
shop conditions ruled is gradually be-
ing transferred to the union rail-
road shops where it is produced under
union conditions and actually at a
lower cost.
Through this participation in the
management of the shops, workers
are learning the elements of control
and direction which will be invaluable
when they are called into even more
active direction of industry by a
public impatient with the wastes of
private ownership.
The one weakness of this plan for
labor-management cooperation, the
Cooperative Commission points out,
Is the fact that tts operation is
limited merely to the execution of
orders from above, while the work.
ers have no more voice than former
ly in determining what and why
those orders should be. Certainly
genuine cooperation between labor
and management means placing re-
personalities Of the workers on the
directing board Of the railroad, since
the men who invest their labor and
their lives in an industry, the Co
operative Commission points out, are
just as much entitled to a voice in
deciding its policies as are those who
invest their dollars.
