VANDENBERG ASKS PROFIT-SHARING TO SAVE CAPITALISM

Sees Adjunct to Bargaining; NLRB Answers Critics, Ford; PWA Power Plans Attacked

Supreme Court Asked to Give Stockyards Case New Hearing.

(Copyright, 1938, by United Press) WASHINGTON, May 21 (U. P.).— Senator Vandenberg (R. Mich.) pro- | posed in an interview today the de- | velopment of a profits-sharing sys- | tem between management and labor. | He warned that capitalism to survive must establish itself on a mor re | co-operative basis. “There must be a sound opportun- | ity for capital itself to earn legitimate profits,” he said, “but there | must also be a better means to per- | mit the participation of labor in the | final profits of its own production.”

Senator Vandenberg, a potential | candidate for the Republican Presidential nomination in 1940 and a | bitter critic of New Deal policies, | recently obtained approval for a | Senate study of profit sharing sys- | tems. A three-man subcommittee of | the Finance Committee, comprising | Senator Vandenberg and Senafors | Herring (D. Ia) and Johnson (D.|

Colo.) will make the study. | Works With Bargaining

“We have undertaken in the last two years to explore this field | through the compulsory application | of collective bargaining and its re- | lated instrumentalities,” Senator Vandenberg said. “The supplementary field of voluntary action through profit-sharing | has never heretofore been authentically explored at all. The two things are not necessarily in conflict. They | each deal with the creation of satisfactory human relationships and the | pursuit of equitable peace in commerce and industry.” There is no intention of attempting to standardize a uniform profit- | sharing formula by Congressional mandate, he said. “The country is entirely too big and too complex to be thus regimented,” he continued. “The primary purpose is to make available an authentic record and recommendation for the voluntary guidance of American business. “The secondary purpose is to inquire how the Government can appropriately encourage voluntary ac- | tion by employers in this field of | capitalistic co-operation.

Tax Exemptions Suggested

“It might be done by tax exemptions and compensatory tax rewards in connection with such por- | tions of commercial income as are | diverted to employee dividends. If | such a course should prove practical, the loss of immediate tax | revenue would be offset one hundred fold by the profound benefits which always will flow from peace | and happiness in our relationships | between capital and labor.’ | The Committee will not start with | a preconceived formula of a profit- | sharing system, he said. “It is a quest for constructive in- | formation in a field where the destiny not only of the country but | of the capitalistic system itself must | be determined in the near future,” he said. “If capitalism is to survive | it. obviously has got to establish itself on a basis of healthier co- | operation.” Senator Vandenberg said that | during the last 30 years there have been many significant experiments | in profit-sharing and as a result, | there are something like 200 differ- | ent methods that have been tried | in big and little units. “Some of them have failed.” he | said, “and it is important to know | why many have succeeded. and again, it important to know ! why ”"

NLRB Denies

Favoring Employees

WASHINGTON, Mav 21 —The National Labor Board, resuming the offensive | against the Ford Motor Co. an- | nounced today that 95 per cent of | its 10,447 cases involving 2,116.338 workers were closed, without going | to the decision stage. Denying charges that it always | rules against the employer, the | Board said that it had dismissed | 16 per cent of the charges filed | with it, and had persuaded complaining unions to withdraw 24 per cent of the other cases. Fifty-five per ceni. of the cases filed were | settled by agreement of both par- | ties, the NLRB said. The Board said that it had avert- | ed 556 threatened strikes involving | 144,718 workers and conducted 1218 elections in which 433,484 votes | were cast. During April alone, 13 | threatened strikes involving 2480 | workers were averted by Board action, the report said. Meanwhile, Board officials pressed | their case against the Ford com- | pany, which the NLRB found guilty of violating the Wagner Act and ordered to reinstate 29 discharged union members.

STUDY LEGALITY OF WAGE BILL

by

‘Congressmen Scan Law-

books With House Passage Nearly Certain.

By HERBERT LITTLE

Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, May 21.—With

| House passage of the wage-hour | bill next week virtually certain, the question of constitutionality became |

a leading factor today in the intersectional battle over the bill. Enactment of wage-hour legislation at this session depends upon

| heading off a deadlock, and South-

ern opponents of the bill are counting on constitutional arguments to create such a deadlock. Southern opposition in the House debate on Monday and Tuesday will center upon the contention that a

| hill without geographical wage dif-

ferentials would be construed by the

| Supreme Court as an infringement | | call vote on the utility amendment, |

of ths Constitution's guarantee of “due process.” In the Senate, with its delays and longer debate, this point will be used to seek Northern Republican support for a bill with differentials. If the bill were so amended the A. F. of L. would oppose it and the House prebably would reject it. Whereupon Congress would recess without enacting

any wage-hour measure at all. Hughes’ Opinion Considered

On the other side, the bill's defenders are leaning heavily upon

| Chief Justice Hughes’ opinion in the

Washington State minimum-wage

| case.

The Hughes’ opinion upheld the state law on the theory that an employer can be compelled to pay =a worker the bare cost of living, as-

| serting that otherwise the taxpayers

are called upon to pay the difference through relief. On this point Southerners argue that living costs are so much cheaper in the South as to make a lower minimum-wage requirement necessary.

On the other side, statistics are

| being assembled in an effort to show

that the bill's provisions would not raise workers’ incomes above bare living costs even in the South.

Show Minimums Low

Most of the minimum family budgets calculated by experts range from $800 to $1100 a year, whereas

| the bill would force a wage of not | more than $550 a year ($11 a week)

{at first, and not more than $800 a vear ($18 a week) after three years. A recent Labor Department survey of city families which have

| at least one member on a full-time

job shows average family income of $1200 to $1500 a vear. This, ac-

| cording to Isador Lubin, Bureau of

Labor Statistics head, usually leaves

| little for clothing, medical care and | | house furnishings.

higher levels in this group families are able to afford a secondmovies, and

Such figures will be used to show that even in the South the bill will not. provide more than a bare living, and that therefore a bill which is | nondiscriminatory between regions | is not an “arbitrary exaction.” If the bill is enacted, this economic

defense will be the basis of its de-|

fense in the inevitable court chal- | lenges.

‘Government Asks

‘Stockyards Case Rehearing

WASHINGTON, May 21 (U. P.). The Supreme Court will study the | Government's petition for reconsideration of the Kansas City stockyards rate case today at its secret Saturday conference. Ccurt attaches believed that a decision would not be reached this afternoon. If one is, it will be an-

| nounced when the Court convenes Monday noon.

The Board's motion asserts that the questions constitute “an inquisition” and an attempted “fishing expedition” into Board affairs and | that some of the questions are “impertinent and scurrilous” and “pro- | pounded in bad faith.” The NLRB objected particularly | to five questions proposed by Ford | attorneys, who asked appointment | of a commission to ask Board mem- | bers whether they. submitted

JASPER, May 21 (U. P.).—Funeral services will be held today for Edward Yaggi, 51-year-old restaurant proprietor, who died of a skull fracture sustained in a fall down a | stairs,

Because of the 1936 decision, Mr. Jackson asserted, the Government had not offered testimony on the question which resulted in nullification of the orders—the necessity of a preliminary repert between rate hearings and the final order. This procedure, he contended, had deprived the Government of

[Ne Action Taken on Farm Price Parity Proposal.

BULLETIN

WASHINGTON, May 21 (U. P.).—~The Senate Appropriations Committee today reported favorably a $3,450,00,000 spending-lending bill carrying money for parity payments to farmers and banning use of funds for power projects that will compete with private utilities. Senate increases in the House-approved measure totaled more than 297 million dollars. The Appropriations Committee ratified all the changes drafted by its Subcommittee,

WASHINGTON, May 21 (U. P). —The Senate Appropriations Committee tentatively approved today, it was reliably reported, a provision that no funds from the $3,412,000,060 pump-priming bill be used ta build public power plants to compete with private utilities. | The Committee also tentatively | upheld an amendment elimination of relief wage differentials if a wage-hour bill is enacted with rigid labor standards, | it was learned. | This information became known as the full Committee considered the changes made in the Houseapproved bill by a subcommittee in preparation for a report to the Senate. Committee members said that no action yet had been taken on the controversial amendment proposed by Senator Russell (D. Ga.) to provide two hundred twelve million dollars for parity payments to farmers under the new farm bill.

| but that Chairman Glass (D. Va.) announced it agreed to after a show of hands. jection. This aetion indicated a bitter fight when the bill reaches the Sen- | ate, since it would halt a PWA public power policy under which applications have been received for one hundred twenty-seven million dollars worth of projects, of which fifty-six million dollars would be in competition with private utilities. The utilities amendment was recommended to the full Committee by a Subcommittee last night. Also approved by the Subcommittee were these changes:

| Progress Administration. Mr. Roose-

work relief until Feb. 1, 1939. The subcommittee, projecting the fund one month further to allow more time for a survey of relief needs next session, decided on $1,425,000,000 until March 1. 2. An amendment, sponsored by Senator Byrnes (D. S. C.) providing for elimination of differentials in WPA relief wages if Congress enacts a rigid wage-hour bill without differentials between North and South. 3. An increase from two million to eight million dollars for the | Treasury's hookkeeping department so that it may continue to do WPA's accounting. The House system of appropriating the mcney directly to the agencies designated to do the spending and lending was retained by the Senate subcommittee, together with the requirement of Presidential approval.

Mankind, overburdened with a load of political dross and engulfed in vaporings of social humbug, seems unable to rise above it all and make personal life the worthwhile thing it should be.

As a human who has acute indigestion spends all his thought on his ailing mid-section, so human society, sick and bloated by political dyspepsia, is forever preoccupied with thoughts of collective economic and social remedies,

And, the result of being collectively coerced is that we remain totally indifferent to the individual phase of life and almost forget that the one purpose in being alive is to get something out of life.
