American Federation Opposed to Mor
gan System.
The American Federation of Labor
is opposed to the system of profit shar
ing proposed by J. P. Morgan & Co.
with the design to avert strikes. The
following oflicial statement has been
issued by the A. 1 of L.:
That J. P. Morgan is quietly arrang
ing with a score of his industrial cor
porations a plan whereby the em
ployees of these corporations may be
"shown the advantage" of buying
shares and becoming "partners" with
the great financier is a matter that is
being watched closely by labor leaders
in Washington.
The United States Motor company
is one of the concerns manipulated by
Morgan, and it has based its profit
sharing system on the model formu
lated by the United States Steel cor
poration. All of these systems are
frankly acknowledged to be for the
purpose of preventing strikes.
Reports from England just received
through the consul general, John L.
Griffiths, tell of the complete break
down of this profit sharing system as
tried in the great shipbuilding yards
of Sir Christopher Furness, who in
1008 took about 3,000 of his employees
into copartnership with him. The men
paid for their shares out of their wages
and were guaranteed a 4 per cent re
turn on the amount of their investment
in addition to a share in the profits
after paying the ordinary shareholders
5 per cent. Finding that the actual
result was merely to curtail the power
of their unions to protect their wages
and working conditions, the men voted
to discontinue their "partnership" with
Sir Christopher Furness.
This same English corporation has
established what is called a works
council, where matters that the com
pany fears may breed friction can be
discussed and met. This council Is of
particular use to the company in pro
viding means whereby the Immediate
business interests of the firm may be
explained to the men when the di
rectors are of the opinion that a de
mand for a raise in wages is not
warranted by the state of their finances
or, on the other hand, that a lowering
of wages seems necessary.
Wilson Defends Rights of Labor.
Woodrow Wilson, governor of New
Jersey, in a recent address before the
Illinois Manufacturers' association
said:
"lousiness is the economic service of
society for profit. There are two part
ners in it, the business concern itself
and the public. Politics is the adjust
ment of all affairs to the common in
terest. "The trouble with business in this
recent period of extraordinary expan
sion has been too much exploitation,
too little regard for the permanent in
terests of society and of all concerned.
It will not do to exploit the public. It
will not do to dominate markets and
prices.
"It will not do either to make of the
workingman a mere instrument in
stead of a partner. There must be a
very real partnership between capital
and labor if modern business is to be
put upon its right footing."
A Parlor Trick.
Request any person to mark upon
the wall the exact height of an ordi
nary silk hat, supposing the hat to be
placed on its crown on the floor. Ex
hibit the hat before its height is
marked, and It is curious to observe
how entirely different are the ideas of
half a dozen persons upon the sub
ject, the greater number marking high
enough for two or three hats.
SAVING VS. SUFFERING
The real truth of the matter, Mr. Wage Earner, is that
it is better to save than to suffer.
To save a little every week from the pay check and in
vest it in such a way that it will be working for you all the
time.
Better that than to suffer privations, more or less
acute, in the coming days when age has lessened your earn
ing capacity.
Men grow old. That's a fact. Wise men look ahead
and prepare for that time. Let us help you prepare. Deposit
a little with us every week, and we will put it to working
for you working day and night. In the days to come you
will have something to rely upon. This is just the applica
tion of plain commonsense to the problem of life. We pay
four per cent interest. Investigate our methods. We will
gladly explain.
