since he is president of a company which employs 1200 workers. It is .hjs contention that the emotionally ill among workers and their supervisors and executives cost their industries untold headaches and wasted, millions, but psychiatric and psychological sciences have the skills at least to lessen those miserie and monetary loses. ' Build Beds of Nads For instance, "Executives build themselves beds of nails- yogifashion and try to pretend they like them.” On lower industrial {levels, "irregular work habits, proneness to accidents, difficulty in performing normal tasks, and strained personal relations are all first signs of emotional stress ” 1 American industry's backwardness as regards the available
know - how of psychology, may be ■ seen i,n the fact that "even though a man’s neurotic behavior causes disruption in an organization and ; creates anxieties in those near ■him. it frequently eVokes not even [an amateur attempt to diagnose ' it.” < ' ■ " What industry needs, in his opinion, "is a climate of opinion where i mental disturbance is held an illness like any other, to be prevented or cured." Industry' has’ an "obligation to deal with the conditions" growing out of clashing states of minds and emotions—to understand why people tick and ; what makes them tick when those people are banded together in one industrial operation as workers and executives. Few Realize Problem / Unfortunately, as things are today, few executives are able to understand this, even in themiseives,” he said. ‘ Too many are neurotic and don’t know it. One type familiar in ever profession and business is the chronic overworker- who can’t do anything but i work, which he continues to do |at home almost every evening.” Marrow's views were taken I from his newly published book, “Making Management ’Human" 'McGraw - Hill Book Co., New York' which is an analysis in detail of the psychology of industtiat' I workers and executives and of the ! psychological values involved in ! their inter-relations on the job. ’Conclusions are based largely on ■ psychological studies of workers I and management of Marrow’s own company, the Harwood Manufacturing Corp. The book title implies he thinks; management unhuinah. He doesn’t; but he does think "too few executives in industry today have an adequate conception of the values the- average man seeks in work, | or the different meanings work I has for different people.

Clerk Union Hints Strike May Spread Montgomery Ward Clerks On Strike CHICAGO — Members of the Retail Clerks Union, on strike against three Montgomery, Ward and Co. stores across the nation, hinted today the strike may spread. Spokesmefi for the Retail Clerks International Asn. members said the walkout whs called Monday because negotiations with management of the retail and mail order firm had reached an impasse. The strike-bound stores were in Fulton, N. Y., Kansas City, Kan., and Whittier, Calif. The union had demanded during five months of bargaining a 10-cent hourly wage increase and a 40-hour, five-day week. The union represents 5,000 employes in 61 stores of the nationwide chain, a union spokesman said. Negotiations collapsed Saturday when Ward negotiators rejected an across-the-board wage increase on the grounds that it was not possible because of “the type of competition involved with local businesses.” Management argued- that ‘•‘You’re competing with the local dry goods dealer” and, therefore, and on a merit basis. In Washington, AFL-CIO President George Meany Monday called on all unions and state and focal labor organizations to help the Clerks Union win the strike. Meany labeled Wards’ position as “archaic” and indicated unioi members should be encouraged to boycott the firm. v A spokesman at union headquarters here hinted that clerks in two cr t?ree other stores might walk off the job today.
