JAP GOVERNMENT STILL OPPOSED TO LABOR UNION

Report of Mission Societies Sees Growth of Spirit, However. TOK30, Aug. 30. (Correspondence of the Associated Press) The doveJop ment of social and Industrial conditions In Japan Is treated clearly In the latest Issue of "The Christian Movement In the Japanese Empire," a book which Is published each year by the federated missionary organizations. In this respect the volume la of interest because there have been a number of strikes for higher wages, workmen claiming they should profit by the wave of war prosperity spreading throughout the country. The strikes have affected mills, mines, factory and even postmen. In some oases they hav been settled by compromise; In others by granting the demands. Friends' Society Lauded. Writers In the missionary volume plve credit to the work performed by the "Laborers' Friends' Society" Japan's nearest approach to trade unionism which was founded by Dr. Bunjl Suzuki. It Is regarded a great success, as Dr. Suzuki has helped to settle many recent strikes. Dwelling on the future, Galen M. Fisher, secretary of the American Young Men's Christian Association, writes his opinion that government opposition in Japan to the, organization and effective operation of labor unions will be as determined as ever. The apprentice system, he says, Is deeprooted, and will for years have a deterrent effect on the development of tegular labor unions, but as time goes on the apprentices will realize that organization is essential to the betterment of their position. Women Labor Is Check. The fact that more than 60 percent of the factory workers in Japan are women, and that they are constantly phlftlng, militates against strong labor unions on a democratic basis, Mr. Fisher says, while the large number of people employed in State bureaus and monopoly factories and workshops narrows the field of trade unions. The writer says he believes that the faculty of Japanese officials and Intelligent men of affairs of profiting by the failures of the West and arriving at compromises will help to prevent serious trouble between capital and labor, but thinks that "laborers are becoming slowly but steadily more Intelligent and more self conscious." Mr. Fisher concludes: "They are being affected by the unrest and self-as-rertion of Occidental laborers. Unless the officials and employers are largeminded and willing to meet rightful demands,, and unless laborers are inspired by oiher than economic motives, conflicts are practically certain to break out."
