Labor Views
The NeuM
BY STEVE NOVAK and LAWRENCE LUCAS
EDUCATIONAL COMMITTEE
Are Unions worthwhile?

Are Unions worthwhile?
The best answer to this ques
ton we found in an essay writer
| by a teenager, Miss Wilma Louise
Reno, a high school student in Ell
wood City, Pa.
Miss Reno points out that labor
helps America by putting people
first. She adds, Labor Unions are
natural organization of the peo-
pie to better themselves. Every
man desires to better himself but
most men need guidance to attain
their goals. The labor unions ex-
tend to their members the means
OF bettering themselves.
"By raising the working and
the living standards of the masses
of the working people, the labor
unions are raising the working
and the living standards of the
whole nation.
''The labor unions are interest
ed in the social problems of the
people. They are interested in the
hours, wages and working condi-
tions, and even the housing con-
ditions of their members. They
show respect for the individual
and his opinions. They teach man
to respect his fellow man and
deal fairly with him."
Remember
Further testimony on this ques-
ton, Are Unions Worth-While?,
is written not by teenager but
by Professor William Whyte of
the New York State School on In
dustrial and Labor Relations at
Cornell University.
In his book entitled Pattern
for Industrial Peace" Professor
Whyte relates the labor-manage-
ment case history of the Chicago
plant of the Inland Steel Contain
er Company and the United Steel
workers of America. The present
relationship between the Union
and the company is generally
good, but the author reports that
some of the men remember when:
Wages-"At one time in the
early sos, the expected starting
rate for Negro women was 141ac
per hour, Negro men, 1612c, and
white men received 1870"
Hours -"There was no such
thing as an established eight-hour
day. People were required to
work at the pleasure of manage
ment, the worker never knew
just what to expect.
Favoritism - "Favoritism went
along with this policy of ruthless
ness. In a plant of about 600 en-
ployees, there were 246 different
pay rates"
Terrorism-"R Records later show
ed that almost one out of every
eight workers on the regular pay
roll was receiving at least a little
money on the side from manage
ment in return for spying on his
fellow workers."
Yes, we remember!
We're Happy To Say
We often raise heck about some
employers. We do it when we feel
justified. But we also want to pass
out the oral bouquets to employ
ers when they deserve it.
And so we join with CLOS
Amalgamated Clothing Workers in
saying "a job well done" to Brook
field Clothes, Inc, Brooklyn
Clothing manufacturer which was
given the Amalgamated Unions
National Economy Award" in
standing alone among 1400 union
lied manufacturers of mems cloth
ing in providing employment dur
ing the past recent years without
a single lay-off or part time
work.

"Prices Pull Up WAGES"


You do not have to go very far
to hear the old, familiar moan,
wages are going too gh-that
is why things are SO costly
But it just isn't so. And no less
a conservative authority than
Charles E.. Wilson, the former
president of General Motors Cor
poration and the new Secretary Of
Defense in President-elect Eisen-
hower's cabinet, says SO. In the
September 1852 issue of Readers
Digest, in an article written by
Charles E. Wilson in which lie
discussed the UAW-GM cost-of-
living escalator contracts, noted
that they were enormously under
attack by some people.
''They are attacked by people
who insist upon talking about
the wage-price spiral | contend
that we should not say the wage
price spiral For it is not primar-
lily wages that push UP prices, it
is primarily prices that pull up
wages"
That is frank statement from
Mr.. Wilson. 1t knocks into
cooked hat the complaint of many
industrialists that wages are re-
sponsible for the high cost of
meat, the high cost of medical
care, the high cost of housing and
the high cost of everything.
The National Planning Associa-
ton has made an extensive and
intimate case study of ten Union
Management relationships. Now,
the National Planning Association
is composed of leaders in a vari-
ETY. of fields-Labor, Manage
ment, Farm, Academic, etc.
1t is not slanted labor-Wise by
long shot. For example, among
its trustees are: Harry A. Bulls,
Chairman of the board of General
Mills, Inc; Courtney C. Brown of
Standard Oil Company; Frank
Lazarus, Jr., president of FEEDER
ated Department Stores, Inc;
Frank Altschul, chairman of the
board of General American Inves-
tors Company and other men
prominent in American industry
and business.
Here is what the National Plan
ming Association found as the
eight significant qualities common
to all sound Labor-Managemcnt
relations:
Il. There is full acceptance by
management of the collective bar
gaining process and of unionism
as an institution. The compan
considers a strong Union an as
set to management.
''2. The union fully accepts pri-
vate ownership and operation of
the industry. 1t recognizes that
the welfare of its members de-
pends upon the successful tyera-
ton of the business.
"3. The union is strong, respon-
sible and democratic.
"a. The company stays out of
the unions internal affairs.
"5. Mutual trust and confidence
exist between the parties.
IS. Neither party to bargaining
has adopted legalistic approach
to the solution of problems.
'7. Negotiations are problem
centered-more time spent on
| day-to-day problems than on de-
filming abstract principles.
"8. There is widespread union
management consultation and
| highly developed information
sharing"
There you have it-this is the
kind of relationship that every de-
cent Union seeks-no more and
no less.

Soils and Crops
Check Fertilizer Needs Now,
Make Full Use of Manure
By ARTHUR F. SHAW

largely dependent upon the way in
which it was stored and eventually
utilized, as it is a perishable ma
terial. In many instances its value
is not fully appreciated and conse-
quently plant food is wasted.
An average ton of barnyard ma
nure contains 10 pounds of nitrogen,
pounds of available phosphoric
acid and 10 pounds of potash. A 10
ton per acre application would add
approximately 100 pounds of nitro
gen, so pounds of phosphoric acid
and 100 pounds of potash to that
acre of land.
It's major value is in the nitrogen
and phosphoric acid plus the or
ganic matter supplied and badly
needed on many irrigated soils. 1t
should be noted that manure is low
in phosphorus and consequently it
may be necessary to supplement
with commercial phosphate ma
terial. This will be dependent upon
previous treatments, if any, and the
crop to be grown.
"'Orrible Waste"
Four years ago had the privilege
of visiting a number of farmers in
Montana with an English lad who
was born and raised on a rather
large farm in Britain and who was
a student in agriculture at one of
their universities. His first observa-
ton and comment came when we
passed by an irrigation ditch where
or 4 loads of manure had been
used to plug washout.

my, my, what a 'orrible waste of
manure-why, that's like gould in
England"
Proper accumulation and storage
of manure is point we can do some
thing about now. Use plenty of bed
ding for the animals in the stall,
shed or feed lot to absorb the liquid
voided. Urine contains approx
mately SO per cent of the total nitro
gen in ton of manure.
Storage Principles
The main considerations in storing
manure are (D keep it we'll COM
pacted; (2) keep moist; 90 keep un-
der shelter and on water-tight floor
if possible; az do not disturb until
ready to use; and if stored in pile
outside, keep it moist.
Field application of manure is a
most important consideration. A s.
to lotion per acre application is the
accepted practice. Plow under as
soon after application as possible.
BY this is meant Immediately, if
possible, or at least within "a hours.
If not worked into the soil within
short period of time, a considerable
loss of nitrogen may result. Upon
exposure to sunlight and high at
mospheric temperatures, nitrogen
readily volatilizes.
Intertilled row crops and grass
pastures generally respond best to
applications of manure.
So do your best so that the ma
nure can do its best.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1953-12-01
Why "a Barley
Price Is Lower

Barley and oats will continue to
be supported at IS per cent of parity
in 1854 but the actual price in dollars
and cents will be lower because the
new parity formula is used in COM
putting the price.
Same support level but lower
price. Perhaps when you first saw
this announcement in the papers you
wondered a bit what it was all about.
Here's a refresher review of the
background:
The Agricultural Adjustment Act
of 1888 was amended by acts in 1948
and 1949 to provide new formula"
for calculating parity prices. This
new parity formula has since been
in effect for all non-basic commodi-
ties, which include barley and oats.
For the basic commodities Cotton,
tobacco, rice, corn, wheat and pea
nuts) the amendments provided that
parity prices should be figured by
both the old and the new formulas
and until 1854 whichever price were
the higher would be the support
price for that year. So far the old
formula has always been higher.
Chief difference between the new
and the old formulas is that the new
formula uses the average prices re-
ceived for the preceding 10 years as
the basis for calculation Q944-1953
for 1854, while the old formula uses
the averages for the period 1910-1914
For figuring the index of prices paid
by farmers the new formula also in
Montana farmer-stockman., 1953-12-01

cludes wage rates, while the old
formula does not.
Here's the way the two price for
mulas worked out for wheat as of
