LABOUR IN ITS RELATION

TO INDUSTRY.

FAIRER DIVISION BETWEEN

CAPITAL AND LABOUR-

DESIRED.

At the Summer Convention of the In- dustrial Leaguę, at Birmingham, on August 13th, a letter was read from Mr. George Barnes, M.P, Labour member of the War Cabinet, in which he said: Please be assured of my constant sup port of your movement, which, it seems to me, 13 increasingly important. EX- tremists just now may run Labour, in its present enfeebled condition, on to the rocks, although I

am gind to

to note the most recent indications are that common- sense is once more beginning to take con- trol. But what we want is growing co- operation and goodwill among all who would do their bit towards getting post- war prosperity. That" depends upco co- operation between the different classes connected with the increased produc tion of goods which is so necessary to bring prices down and get us peace in the industrial world."

bad

Mr. J. R. Clynes. M.P., president of the General Workers Upion, gave an address en Labour in its relation to In- dustry. He said the relation of Labour to Industry was that there could be no Industry without Labour. But that was also the relation of Capital to Industry, Capitalists in our present-day worked their place, and many of thera bard and long Their contribution in ability, brain foresight. investigation, and experiment was enormous,

changes in machinery or methods of pro duation, together with all the other work- shop "questions which lie outside the larger sphere of Labour policy, The effects of the great world-war upon the. mind of Labour had been perhaps greater than upon any other class of the come

nunity.

The sooner both employers and employ ed recognised that they should jointly exploit, Industry for the beneft not of one side but of both sides the better it would be for both We could not hope to keep our place in the markets of the world as a great manufacturing and ex porting country by encouraging any sys tera of under-production. The workers could make no more grave mistake than to encourage under-production. Scarcity of commodities was the opportunity of the profiter.

rofer, Scarcity might cause some little inconvenience fo

the rich, but it could cause real and continued privation to the masses of people whose purchasing power was limited. Some forms of Steering

could be punished by

of pro- but workmen who deliberately restricted the law, output, or who failed to accept any form of industrial development which could make their labour more productive, were punishing themselves and their class without knowing it. If profiteering was conscious pilfering, cu canny was an ignorant art which deprived many people of their rent needs.

STATE OBLIGATIONÝ, "Expectations in the country have been raised," said Mr. Clynes. New and great State obligations have been accepted by the Government. Changes deep and abiding and destined complete ly to transform several of the economic conciticus upon which industrial service in the country has been carried on have all been talked of in the terms of the new duties which new national life re- quire us to observe. If wo fail the people's faith in the progress which has been promised will fade into distrust. and a lost confidence will be added to so many of the other losses which the years of the war have thrown upon the shoulders of the people. Not only the Government, but all of us, have the greatest opportunity presented to us in modern times, and

Mrca, replying to discus

said the strike weapon should be used only when other means of settlement had been exhausted, as it involved so many losses to workers themselves. He urged workers to use their voting powers at all elections, not in the narrow sense, of class, but in the interests of the com- mon wealth.

A GERMAN EXAMPLE..

In the House of Commons, recently. Mr. G. Balfour asked the President of the Board of Trade whether the cen tralised trade unions of Germany had instructed their members to work eleven hours per day at pre-war rates of pay.

M Wardle: No confirmation of the implied in the question has so far heen discovered by my department in the German papers, although they do indi- cate that responsible leaders of organised labour in Germany are most active in inculeating intensive work as the only means of restoring Germany's vitality.
