Is a captain, of In dustry with vision. He Is a forward looking American. He believes that the basis , of . big business must be gounded on sound human, ethics. The other day he hit the nail on the head when he said: K -i : "What the "working men want is recognition, appreciation and , fellow ship. It Is the duty of every business man In the United States to see to it that the largest, possible opportunity for employment is given the greatest number of men. :,v- 'Through personal relationships and the 'tone' of the business estab lished on these principles, tbe rank and file of men wilt come to know the spirit of the management and there will be no question of the loyalty of the men to the management "The kind of collective barzalntns- Uutt I believe In Is the one that recog nizes the right of the, men themselves to choose their own fellow workmen as representatives' to speak' with the" company and Avhlch believes in the obligation of the companw- to treat these representatives individually and collectively with the confidence and respect to which they are Justly en titled." .v?.,.,: '-w The working men must not be made the slaves of bhslnera. they must, be made part of it. Political freedom. liberty under, the law, are robbed of their meaning If men are enslaved by tbelr work. It Is not enough to make a man free before tbe law, he must be, safe and free In his work. ' There Is a difference between political free dom and Industrial freedom. Men are entitled to both forms of freedom. One thought is uppermostvand almost universal In the minds of tbe work ing men ef the world, and that Is that they have not had' a square deal. . I agree wlfh them. ' The evidence sup porting their thought is overwhelm ing. Men who give their lives to work have a positive right to a voice In tbe management ; of the business. This right must bo recognized. Working men know, that until they are given a voice their Interests-will be without spokesman and as a consequence will be neglected. It Isn't a question only of wages or hours of employ ment ; the matter goes deeper. Men want the pleasure and satisfaction of being part of the business. They hate been only part of . the business In the sense that they sweat for It and give, their lives to It ,. , Partnership Is th Solution; ; f. tabor and Capital should be a part nership.'; The two are like the blades of a scissors; separate and apart they are meaningless and valueless. Joined together, functioning harmoniously, they are useful and necessary to the world. ; Thls'partnershfp Idea must be put Into practice. The product of the partnership must be more fairly di vided. Thee Is . no gainsaying the fact .that distribution has been en tirely, In the hands of the employers, and they have been. selfish, and the workers have suffered. As President Masayrik put It t me one day: "Here we have a pile of gold , and a fw people hi possession of It, wasting It te their own Injury and to the detri ment, of the world, while, over here we have the iapy living la wretchedness and fear." : Everywhere In Kurope I found progressive public men and forward-looking men of big business ad mitting that the working man has not had a square deal. . There was a day In the world when usury was net considered a social or legal crime. Money-lenders insisted they had a right to loan their money at any rate of Interest the borrower was willing to ' pay. They Justified taking: advantage of the . borrower's necessity by arguing It was part of the right of .-private contract When some saner, minds urged that the state had an-Interest, that the public wel fare, was afTected by the lender exact ing the last, pound of flesh, a great cry went up that, the sacred right of private contract ns being Invaded l that the liberty tof man's rec 'Ion with man was being ; violated Tet the laws alnsti usury came, aad they have remained. These laws Insist ! that a lender shall be limited In the amount te receives as Interest on h! loans. Today everyone concedes the mrallty, the hnirtuiiity and the JusUcer Of the usury laws.
