Mr. Theodore C. Taylor, managing director of the co-partnership mess of Messrs. J. Trand J. Taylor, Limited, said that one of the dangers of the handling of their use by politiciang rather, than by business men was that andre emphasis was laid upon leoretical as compared with practical considerations, Control of business by employés Wit sometimes alleged to be of greater imports than their ultimate ideal, if they wished to sharing in profits and capital. Whatever
win business men as wayarts they must talk less of workers' control and more of what was immediately practicable. The SHANGHAI "WWX -Bafilags appronately very shr days Derween Canton and average worker ernted less for control than for income.

The advantages of personal contact, with the workers was shown in the de tails of the profit-sharing scheme, where the manual workers sa that a sales department was necessary and that manual work required office work to make. it negotiable. The scheme of profit- sharing was initiated in 1921, and in spite of the "slump" was reaffirmed in March, 1922.

WOMEN IN INDUSTRY.
Miss Dorothy Cadbury, director of Cadbury Brothers, Limited, read a paper on the position of women in industry.
Lady Parsons, director of Atalanta, Ltd., said that session was the first to be called by the newly-formed women's committer. The position of women in industry was undergoing a fundamental change. In the past the term "women in industry" was generally understood to mean the manual workers in factories, who had long been associated with many kinds of production, and on whose labour we depended for so many necessaries, But this term now was understood in a wider senso, and included also the tech- nical and professional women who were studying in ever-increasing numbers for the various professions.
Whatever industrial business o or pro- fession they considered, they found that the relations between capital and labour were the pivot of all the business, the harmony; and the success of the firm. In

to consider, they were absorbed in two main streams, wages and salaries-in- creasing, very rightly, with the prosper ity of the firm-and interest on capital. But here they came up against the diffi. cuity at the root of all modern industry. Wages were fixed in an indefinite, an- scientific manner, mainly by the process of bargaining and by the consideration of what others were receiving, and the employer took the surplus profts. The division of the product-wages to worker, surplus to employer-might be the most correct division; but it was open to mus pición. In an absolute co-partnership academic scheine, which was quite unreal: izable for very obvious reasons, no one would got any wage at all; in theory the profits would be divided equally; but this theory was brought up sharply at the start by the necessity of having to live during the process of working. Hence wiges, which might be considered as interest on fabour, and always were the first charge
on capsidiary and less fundamental
Many
changes were being brought into use for the more generous distribution of profits, schemes which did not entail a complete upheaval of existing conditions, and did not interfere with that very difficult ami delicato operation-management.. The most ordinary way in actual operation seemed to be to asign nominal shares to work ers, which were not paid for in cash, and they bore interest; proportionately to capi tal and wages. In some schemes the divi- dend was pavable in shares only until a vertain holding in the business WAS achieved. In others the dividend was paid half in shares and half in capital. In some firms a worker must relinquish his share on leaving. Bome such limit would stem to be decomary as employees, retired or leaving their shares to descendants, might in the courge of time acquire 'a majority of shares and consequently control.
