In a statement signed by the
nine members of the national
Management Labor Policy Com
mittee of the War Manpower Com
mission, a continuation of the
voluntary method of recruiting
workers was urged, and a posi-
tive program, with pledges to
back it up, was offered.
Signing the statement were:
For Labor: CLIO President Philip
Murray, AFL President William
Green and President Fl. W. Fraser
Of the Order of Railway Conduc-
tors of America.
For Industry: Pres. Frederick
c. Crawford, National Association
of Manufacturers; Pres. Eric A.
Johnston, u. S. Chamber of Com
merce, and R. Conrad Cooper,
assistant vice-president, Wheeling
Steel Corp.
For Agriculture: Pres. James G..
Patton, National Farmers Union;
Pres. Edward A. O'Neal, Ameri-
can Farm Bureau Federation,
and Albert S. Goss, master of
the National Grange.
The committee report said that
the members "believe that the
people of this nation are unsur-
passed in initiative resourceful-
ness, and the will to do when
their course is clear.
They (the committee members)
are opposed to National War
Service Legislation in the unan-
imous belief that compulsion in
any form, whether by law or by
administrative order, does not go
to the heart of the problem. They
believe the need goes beyond that
which can be secured by compul-
sion.

Statement

"They are convinced that:
II. The American people will
provide greater output under a
voluntary system than under one
of compu1sion and RECOMMENDATION.
q. The present cultural man.
power situations are results of
dislocations, mal-distribution of
contracts, and ineffective man
power utilization rather than of
inadequate overall supply of
labor. =
"3. The solution depends upon
leadership, coordinated and I'M
derstood plans, and efficient ad-
ministration, not upon broadened
control and regulation.
~. Fully effective mobilization
and utilization of the national
manpower will be achieved.
When all agencies of government
concerned with procurement, pro-
duction and manpower are adj
ministered under a coordinated
and well understood arrangement
in which government defines the
war needs, enunciates the funda-
mental policies or rules of the
game confines itself to a mini
mum of control and administra-
tive detail, and provides the max
imum of real assistance to those
who must do the work, namely
the people of this nation in each
community"
The representatives of labor,
agriculture and industrial manage
ment joined in making a volun-
tary pledge for the people they
represent which contained the
following points:
