HEAD DESCRIBES
LABOR ATTITUDE
Under Collective Bargaining
Talk Lies Old Principles,
KnudSen Asserts.

Placing a responsibility for rela-
uonships with employees and the
public in the hands Of factory su-
pervision, William S. Knudsen, ex-
ecutive vice-president Of the Cen
eral. Motors Corp, has charted
the course Of good industrial re-
lations between the workmen and
his foreman.
Mr.. Knudsen's position was de-
fined recently before the GIN Ex-
ecutives' Club of Lansing, where
more than 500 of the Odds and
Fisher Body plant supervisory force
heard his remarks.
In General Motors, We recognize
organization lines" said Mr.. Knud-
sen. I'VE want you to take charge
Of your job; we want that particu-
larry for your sake. but most Of all
we want 1t for the success of the
product; for the success and hap
pineSs Of all our families and for
the satisfaction of our customers"
Started at Bottom
Mr.. Knudsen recalled his own ex-
perience of more than 35 years in
the industry, starting from the
bench, through the ranks of super
vision to the desk.
AS long as I was on the bench,
I worked for my foreman and 1 ex-
pected him to look after my inter-
ests," said Mr.. Knudsen. When
kn~ rO1F II
think I had learned the funda-
mentals of industrial relationship"
While recognizing that collective
bargaining was coming into its own,
Mr.. KnudSon pointed out that the
foundation of difficulties in plants
was based upon misunderstanding
of an individual nature and not of
collective nature.
Stresses Supervision
L maintain that plants having
the best foremen and the best super
vision have the least labor trouble,
he said. Collective troubles start
from individual grievances
He made his position clear on COL
lective bargaining with the follow
ing remarks:
The corporation and you and 1
are perfectly willing TO bargain col
lectively with our employees on a
proper basis of equity to both sides,
as indicated by the statement of
Alfred P. Sloan Jr., president of
General Motors. Naturally, argu-
ments will arise as to what is equit-
able bargaining. We depend on
plant supervision to do what is
right. We depend on foremen to
consult with their superintendent.
and we are willing, if they are not
sure, to have it go to management,
and if management would in turn
like to consult with us, we are will
ing" he said.
You have been doing this all
your life, although what was known
as individual bargaining is now col
lective bargaining by law. 1 can not
help but feel that under all this
technical talk of bargaining lies the
old principle of being fair and on
the level; recognizing good work
when you see it and condemning the
shirker when you find him." he con-
cluded.

Destruction Navy Dirigible Macon
In War Games And Actual Damage
In Flight Set Back To Navy Plans
Two Orders Were Broken on Flight From West Coast;
Further Damage in War Games Not Revealed;
Nav Have One More Test
By MACK JOHNSON
United Press Staff Correspondent
Copyright, 1884, United Press)


WASHINGTON, May 10. (UP)
American dirigible development
suffered new blow yesterday
when it was revealed the giant
airship Macon, pride of the navy
air force, proved unable to defend
herself and theoretically was ode
stroyed" in fleet maneuvers on
Cuba.
In addition to her theoretical
total destruction by attacking air
planes, Secretary of Navy Claude
A. Swanson disclosed the Macon
sustained new actual damage on
her weekend flight in the war
games.
Extent of the damage was not
revealed. The dirigihle is now IN
Florida for repair of the new in
juries, the second she has suffered
in recent weeks. Two girders were
broken on her recent transconti-
mental flight from her permanent
base at Sunnyvale, Calf.
The new damages and the Ma
cons tactical defeat made many
high navy officers cooler than
ever toward further experimental
ton with lighter-than-air craft.
Many believe that unless the
Macon shows up better in her
new tests with the fleet, no more
airships will be built by the Unit
ed States.
"The Macon will undergo re-
pairs and then will attempt to
prove her efficiency again with
the fleet" said Swanson, adding
that he was by no means sold
on dirigibles and had to be shown
that their cost was justified.
High navy authorities have
been doubtful of the value of air
ships since the Akron, sister ship
of the Macon, crashed last year
and carried scores to death in the
Atlantic. :.
The navy had a similar tragic
experience years oSo
Shenandoah. The Los Angeles
survived several years strenuous
fiying, but now is stored away at
Lakehurst, N. j., deemed too old
to be safe for further use.
Despite the recommendation oil
Rear Admiral Ernest j. King,
chief of naval aeronautics, the
navy refused this year to author
ize replacement of the Akron.
The Akron disaster turned many
congressman definitely against
dirigibles and the navy preferred
to await trial of the Macon before
determining future policies.
During construction of the Ma
con there were repeated rumors
of sabotage and structural weak
nesses. The navy accepted her
after a thorough examination.
Now the damages ard other diff

SAYS BREVARD
COLLEGE IS TO
Be new TYPE
President Coltrane Tells
Kiwanis of Three Main
Detectives

Officials of Brevard college,
which is to be opened next fall
under the auspices Of the Meth
odist church, will have three prin-
ciple detectives in view, DR.. E. J.
Coltrane, president, told the XII
wants club in an address this aft
ernoon. These detectives, he said,
are; =.
1 TO assemble a faculty well
trained and in sympathy with the
young people of the mountain re-
gion;
2.-To reduce expenses to the
lowest basis possible and in no
way to make a profit from stu
dents;
3.-To set up an institution
where young people can work out
part of the expenses Of a nine:
months term, which he estimated
will be 5000.
"Thirty years ago few young
people went to high school; today
high school education is almost
UNIVERSAL" DR.. Coltrane said. Il
predict that thirty years hence q
college education will be almost
as universal, although it may be
obtained in colleges of a new
type. We do not now need more
colleges of the old type, as eft.
fective as their work may be, and
for this reason we are proposing
to build at Brevard new kind
of institution. It will, however,
be evolutionary rather than revo-
lutionary in nature. 1t will not
be a vocational school but will Of
fer regular academic work in the
first two college grades"

thusiasm to two vocal solos by
