WAR ON CLOSED SHOP IS BEGUN BY EMPLOYERS Indiana Manufacturers Among Those Back of Move on Union Labor. CONVENTION IS CALLED CHICAGO, Dec. 22—Manufacturers of the Nation today served notice on union labor that the intensive drive against the closed shop had started, when William Butterworth issued a call for n convention of big employers of the country. Butterworth la head of tfhe Illinois Manufacturers' Association, vice president of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States and president of the National Conference of Manufacturers’ Association, comprised of the employers le the following States: Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Washington, West Virginia and Wisconsin. He conferred with President-elect Harding yesterday. Butterworth, in an open letter, today attacked the plan of the railway brotherhoods, who, he said, demand the estab lishment of a national board of adjustment to handle all labor troubles Instead of the individual companies handling their own industrial affairs. SUCCESS WOULD SPREAD INFLUENCE. Butterworth said If the. brotherhoods succeed In their plan It would influence all other Industries. “The plan of the brotherhoods means the closed shop and union domination over all Industries alike,” Butterworth said. “This Is the most vital question facing the manufacturing and producing interests of the country today, and should have immediate attentidn.” The brotherhoods wish to establish the adjustment board under authority of the transportation art passed by Congress, which provides for a national labor board having jurisdiction over railway employes’ wages when controversies are appealed to it. The act provides the

Butterworth called a convention of the national conference of State Manufacturers' Associations, to be held here Jan. 12. The conference will be in protest of the stand of the brotherhoods. Butterworth invited the following big employers of labor to be present at the conference: Elbert H. Gary, president of the United States Steel Corporation; Charles M. Schwab, president of the Bethlehem Steel Company; Dwight W. Morrow, of J. P. Morgan & Cos.; F. A. Selberllng, Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company, and Charles Plez, former head of the Emergency Fleet Corporation. It was Indicated by Butterworth that the Immigration problem is one of vexation to American Industry and will be discussed at the conference. Robert M. Buck, editor of the New Majority, leading labor paper In the Middle West, said labor is aware of the fight on the closed shop and Is prepared to go the limit. “Manufacturers sweeten the open shop proposition by calling it the ‘American plan,' ” said Buck. “The open shop, if established, would mean the end of organized labor. This fight is vital to our interests.” WOMEN CAN HOLD OFFICE.
