STRIKES SETTLED WHILE YOU EAT
Continued from page Jice

Just the same, they decided it
would be wiser to remove any
patronage" aspect from the din
ners. Under the new plan, unions
now share the expenses of the
Committee, including costs ofthe
dinners at Hugo's. Labor men
on the Committee are chosen
directly by their unions instead
of by other members of the Com
mittee. When those changes were
made, the lam agreed to sit
down at the table again, and the
breach was healed.
Cosaznittee Won Out
In 1913 negotiations, the lam
won a ~ to lO-cents-an-hou
raise and a contract renewal for
two years. Both the union and
Yale & Towne prophesied 'an
era of good management-labor
relations.
The era actually dates from the
first dinner meeting at Hugo's. :
Since then, there has been
only one strike of any conse-
quence, and it ended in a
Committee triumph. After a
deadlock between the Baer
Brothers paint plant and the
Gas, Coke and Chemical Union
CIO, the union went on strike
for % days. Federal and state
mediators attempted to bring
about agreement, without sue
cess Then the regional director
of the CIO union called on Walter
Raleigh, executive secretary of
the L-M-C Committee.
A sub committee, headed by
the Reverend Mr.. Campbell. an
swered the call Immediately, and
less than three hours later, a
satisfactory contract was signed
by the CIO and Baer Brothers.
Not Exclusive
STAMFoRD'S Labor Manage
ment- Citizens Committee isn't
perfect. With only three birth
days behind it, it makes occa-
sional mistakes. 1t sometimes
riles tempers. It isn't strong
enough to suit some members.
But it's growing with every din
ner at Hugo's.
There's no copyright on the
Stamford system. If worried city
fathers of other American towns
would like a closeup of the Com
mittee in action, for purposes
of emulation, there's always an
empty plate or two at Hugo's for
''the other fellow" The End

The Committee certified that
81 per cent of the Masterset
workers were members of the
CIO. Joseph Schick, president
of Masterset, promptly acknowl-
edged the report, thanked the
Committee and recognized the
CIO as bargaining agent.
Despite the Committees
accomplishments, a survey
made in Stamford showed
that all too few of its citizens
knew what it was doing. The
Committee decided it was time
for a little horn-tooting. Father
James A. Lord of St. Mary's
Roman Catholic Church ar
ranged with Julian Schwartz,
manager of WSTC, to broadcast
a Committee forum once a
month. The first broadcast, with
Rev. l. Logan Kearse. a Negro
clergyman, as moderator,
aroused immediate interest.
There was an especially big
response to the Committees two
most recent forums of the air -
How Can Industrial Relations
Be Improved" and What
Should Congress Do About the
Taft-Hartley Act?" Today, more
and more Stamfordians are tun-
ing in regularly.
Tuxnovex II Coed
A HEALTHY sign is that new
faces are constantly showing up
on the Committee to replace
older members who are forced to
retire because of the pressure of
private work. The turnover gives
more representatives of Stamford
labor, management and public a
chance to lift a fork at the Com
mittee's dinners.
The toughest blow the Com
mittee has suffered was the with
drawal, a few months back, of the
lam. This independent union,
whose strike had thrown Stam-
ford into turmoil and precipi-
tated the birth of the Committee.
had never quite got over the Bit
terness aroused by its previous
trouble with the Yale & Towne
management. The lam charged
that information gathered at the
dinners had been used against
labor leaders when negotiating
contracts and that any labor
man accepting a free meal from
the Committee was suspect.
Neither the CIO nor the AFL
knew of any instance in which
this charge could be justified.
