- WHY LABOUR OBJECTS.
A Labour correspondect of the Observer writes:-Every outbr est of industrial strife brings with it a fresh attempt to induce Labour to accept profit-sharing a3 A remedy for its grievances and atisfaction of its claims. The latest and most distinguished advocate of the device is Lord Robert Cecil, whose recent politic- al services, although given mainly in the fald of foreign politics. entitle him to a hearing, oven on a purely domestic issue, from acery democrat. Writing recently to a correspondent, he suggests that the Government should use its influence to extend profit-shar- ing, by making it a condition of handing back to private enterprise those industries which it now controla, by making co-partnership a condition of Government as- sistance to an industry, by devis- ing schemes for private adoption and engaging in an activ· pro- paganda of the principle, using the opportunities presented by its conciliatory activities in industri- fat disputes to this and
I believe that any such action en the part of the Government would be resented and resisted by the very people whom at is designed to conciliate. Organised latour has made up its mind agains: profit-sharing more de- finitely perhaps than me any other project of reform. It may be worth while to examine the grounds of this opposition.
At the outset it be must admit- ted that the problem which profits/
seeks to sharing
solve is ༣ difficult one. Not only do recur- ring disputes lessen the produc- tivity of industry, but even when' industrial peace is undisturbed the active interest of the wage earner in improving processes, hereasing output and eliminating waste, is selim evoked. There is in the knowledge and ex perience of the manual workers an untappel reservoir of enǝr- potentiality. Further.
