Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Terms of Industrial Peace The labour question is one of those which in some form or other is constantly, and not always pleasantly, being brought to our notice. The relations between Capital and Labour, and the effect which they will presently have upon our productive power as an industrial people, have recently been considerably discussed. In the following pages I have attempted to state the case fairly, as one who has seen both sides of the problem, and to outline a scheme whereby the two contending elements may be brought together. The discussion is brief, and much more could be said, but an engineer who controls labour employed upon munitions is much too busy at the moment to do more than sketch his ideas, even though the subject be of such supreme importance and the problems involved those with which he is daily coming into contact. In writing this book I have made a very sincere attempt to approach the subject from a strictly neutral standpoint; with the result, doubtless, that I shall be told by some of my labour friends that the proposals do not go far enough, and by some employers that they go much further than is desirable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Quest of Industrial Peace The chapters of this book are the record of an inquiry into the elements of the ever-recurrent industrial strife, and of their action and re action on each other. An analysis of the contentions so decisively in conflict is followed by a brief exposition of the chief social and industrial adventures of the past. Then there is a statement and a criticism of the theories and proposals so eagerly advocated to-day. An endeavour has been made to exhibit the complex problems and the involved issues, moral and psychological, economic and political, which have foiled the enthusiastic idealists of the past, and are preventing the assent of the more thoughtful minds of the present day. The two closing chapters engross a message and a method, stated in the briefest possible way, which seem to the writer to point out the only path of industrial peace for those who are sincerely willing to seek it.

Four or five small volumes, the latest now ten years old, exhaust the list. I have embraced the opportunity thus Offered to treat the subject more comprehensively than has yet been done, and to bring the treatment down to the present year. Discussions of such matters have been rendered more profitable by the recent introduction of the term collective bargaining and by the discrimination of mediation, conciliation.

We believe that the spread of Syndicalism and the fomenting of class-antagonism is harmful to Labour as well as to Capital. We are convinced that the common national interest can best be served by the establishment of some form of cc-operation between Labour, Management and Finance, which will enable this country to maintain her position as a Great Power, whilst securing a decent and prosperous standard of living to the workers, who, we strongly hold, have an inherent right to be safeguarded against all preventable poverty, unemploy ment and exploitation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industrial Peace, 1921, Vol. 9 Tits reluctance of private employers and the employing departments of municipalities to submit their demands for wages reductions to arbitration has excited considerable comment. And not a little adverse criticism. It is held that during the war and the transitional period which followed the armistice. Organised labour, at that time strong and aware of its strength. Consented to the settlement of its claims by the Committee on Production and the Industrial Court of Arbitration which followed it. It is therefore but right (we are told) that now, when the tide has turned and the economic power of labour has been enormously reduced, the employers should agree to the determination of wage changes by a similar impartial tribunal. But an examination of the facts of the case will show that the analogy is false. And that in refusing to employ the method of arbitration employers are by no means inconsistent. It is not, indeed. Too much to say that they are but pursuing the policy which organised labour itself approves. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industrial Peace, Vol. 7 A few months ago a committee representative of the Labour movement was appointed to investigate the causes of the rise in the cost of living, and it is expected that at least an interim report will be submitted to the Trade Union Congress, which will have met before these lines appear in print. We welcome the investigation for two reasons. In the first place the charge is frequently made against the Labour party that it has offered no practicable alternative to the present economic policy of the Government. For it is argued that to express the ultimate intention of substituting State ownership for private competitive enterprise is not to provide any constructive policy for immediate application; and that if the Labour party achieved a majority and took up the reins of government in the near future, it would be forced, by the necessities of the case, to continue the policy pursued by the present administration. The first condition of successful constructive effort is accurate knowledge of the present situation and the factors responsible for its creation. In the second place the enquiry provides a test of sincerity and capacity. An ex parte statement, based upon 'selected' evidence, or resulting from sheer inability to interpret evidence honestly sought, would produce more harm than good; but a document which was scientific in the true sense of the term, distinguishing the inevitable from the avoidable, would enhance the reputation of the Labour movement. Nor is it unlikely that the Committee will rise to the level of its opportunity and responsibility. It is fairly strong, and includes economists accustomed to gather and to weigh evidence. We hope that in its report the Committee will first of all examine the existing methods of measuring changes in the level of prices. A considerable section of industrial workers - particularly of local leaders - profoundly mistrust the present official index number, which is accepted by arbitration tribunals and Government departments in dealing with applications for advances in wages. There should be, above all things, confidence in the departmental enquiries upon which the results are based, and it is therefore of the first importance that the Committee should bring these enquiries under review and either criticise or approve them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industrial Peace, Vol. 6 IN former articles we have discussed the various forces which tend to come into operation when industry is carried on under competitive conditions. The attitude of the law of this country hitherto has been that the interests of the community. As regards industry. Will be well served if buyers and sellers are left to compete freely among themselves. Competition among buyers will ensure a fair price to the seller. And the competition of the sellers among themselves will prevent undue exactions from the consumer. But in fact, competition - free competition - is no longer the characteristic of Western industry. In some industries the march of inven tion has given us services which depend for their efficiency on single control, whilst in others, the obvious waste of competitive production for uncertain markets has led the manufacturer to combine with his competitors in so-called Trusts. Combines. And Kartells. Free competition has already ceased to exist in many fields of industry, and the tendency is undoubtedly towards closer and more widespread combination. There is a growing feeling that the laissez-jaire policy which was considered so excellent in a free country is inadequate in face of this subtle change from competition to combination, and that the principle of award in proportion to useful activity is no longer operative. The disorganisation of the war has aggravated the appearance of evil. And Communist and Syndicalist agitators too readily exploit real grievances for ends that cannot cure them. What is monopoly? How. And why does it arise? Is it good or is it bad? What are the alternatives? We shall endeavour here to give as simply as possible the elementary facts and theory of the case. The future aspect of the problem and constructive measures for its solution will be dealt with in another series of articles beginning in our April issue.

Birthdays being privileged occasions, this seems a suitable time to review our brief past and to lay plans for What we hope may prove, if not a permanent, at least a more than ephemeral future. The idea of starting a monthly publication devoted, on the one hand, to fighting against the disintegrating influences of Marxism, Syndicalism and anti-nationalism, and, on the other hand, to supporting constructive endeavours directed towards the improvement of the conditions under which the workers play their part in industry, arose out of the following considerations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industrial Peace, Vol. 4 If the term "industrial conscription" means anything at all, it means compelling a person to work or to refrain from working under conditions which are determined, not by the exercise of his or her free choice, but by the operation of some superior authority. Some months ago a considerable outcry was raised on the score that the Government intended to introduce industrial conscription. The particular form which this compulsion was to take, to whom it would be applied, and to what extent it would be enforced, was never very strictly defined; but shop stewards worked up a good deal of excitement on the subject, especially in Coventry, and men were advised to resist its advent to the uttermost. It is not difficult to understand the instinctive hostility with which such a suggestion was regarded by the workers. Many restrictions on personal liberty had been introduced during the war, and imagination ran riot at the mere mention of the phrase "Industrial Conscription." To some a picture presented itself in which engineers would be marched to their work under military discipline, and forced to follow their trade at military rates of pay. By others the fear was expressed that a conspiracy was on foot which would destroy the whole fabric of Trade Unionism, not only during the war, but in perpetuity. Others, again, professed to believe that it was intended to organise a corps of blackleg strike breakers with the object of intervening in industrial disputes. Needless to say, such fevered forebodings were rather the result of suggestion and of adroit exploitation than the product of any sound process of reasoning, but there was, nevertheless, some tangible excuse for a certain amount of nervousness. The industrial power of Labour depends largely on mobility, and every workman is jealous of his right to pick and choose between jobs and between employers. Economic pressure may make it difficult, even impossible, for a man to indulge his taste for change of employment, but there is all the difference in the world between being unable to alter a situation because it is inevitable, and putting up with it at the dictation of a third party.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Silent Conflict: A Story of Industrial Warfare When I see a workingman with mouths to feed, Up, day after day, in the dark before the dawn, And coming home, night after night, thro' the dark. Swinging forward like some fierce, silent animal, I see a man doomed to roll a huge stone up an endless steep. He strains it onward inch by inch, Crouched always in the shadow of the rock; - See where he crouches twisted, cramped, misshapen! He lifts for their life! The veins knot and darken - Blood surges into his face - Now he loses now he wins - Now he loses - loses - (God of my soul!) He digs his feet into the earth - There's a moment of terrified effort - It stirs - it moves. The silent struggle goes on and on Like two contending in a dream.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industrial Peace: The Way to Secure Industrial Efficiency, Unity and National Prosperity In bringing this book under the notice of the public, and particularly of Employers, it may be as well to give one or two reasons for its publication. When interviewing Employers on the subject of Co-partnership, I have invariably met with a reluctance on their part to deviate from the beaten track, due solely to certain misgivings. It is in order to try to dissipate these doubts that this work has been published. My sincerest hopes are, that with the up-to-date evidence obtained from the Old World, and in Australia, a clearer and greater conception of all that Profit Sharing involves may be elucidated. Special attention is directed to the article, "Are Trades Unionism and Co-partnership Incompatible?" by Dr. C. Carpenter, D.Sc.M., Inst. C.E., Chairman of the South Metropolitan Gas Company, London. The Industrial Warfare and troublous times ahead are too serious and acute to be treated with indifference. The first and great essential is to bring Capital and Labor together. The employer is the one necessarily looked to for making the first advance. We have a huge continent to build up and develop, and this cannot be accomplished amidst incessant industrial strife. Under the Profit Sharing System strikes are rarely known, due to the fact that labor settles down contentedly when, in addition to the standard wage, it participates in profits. Having studied the principles of Co-partnership and Profit Sharing for many years, I am prepared to afford information relative to the various successful systems now in operation, and the ones most adaptable for any particular business. I am greatly indebted to those who have so kindly assisted in supplying data. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
