Psalm 40: 17.
CONTKRN FOR ALL
If it did nothing else, the labor dispute at Detroit gave all
of us an object lesson in the solidarity of our modern in
dustrial civilization. This solidarity is a thin which has
come upon us in spite of ourselves. We ditto t will it; most of
the time" we have hardly so much as thought alwut it.
It took the discovery that a strike of auto makers in Michi
gan could tie up the entire national recovery program to
make us realize that it exists. And the fact that it does exist
is botirid,- sooner or later, to make a profound change in our
method of running our society. .',.
We have talked n great deal, in these 19ti0 years, about
the brotherhood of man; but so far we have treated the idea
as the Levite treated the man who fell among thieves we
have lobked at it respectfully and then passed by on the other
side. Now we are being forced to discover that this is an
idea which, in the sheerest self-defense, we niust turn into
a working reality. We may not feel like brothers, but we
must act like them. Are we our brother's keepers? We
might as well be. for he is ours. .,.
When an argument betvrctn the workers and bosses In a few Detroit
lactones can threaten to disrupt the recovery program of the entire United
imivril th hsDDIncM. the security, the very livelihood, that
la to say. of rubber workers In Ohio and textile operative in North Caro
lina and machine shop- employes In Rhode Island and lead miners In Colo
radothen the complete and Inescapable Interdependence of the people
of the nation I too plainly demonstrated to admit of any more argument.
We no longer have any "local" troubles. You may live In California or
New Hampshire; Industrial relations In Michigan are a painfully direct
concern of yours. Something has happened to us, while we have been
arguing and disputing. It Is high time that we reallred It. We are all
In the same boat nowadays; no one can roc It without disturbing all of us.
THE WRIGLEY PLAN
The Wrigley corporation, the very successful manufacturers of that pe
culiarly American sweet, chewing gum. has embarked upon an "employers
assurance" plan which would provide for the continued payment of workers
laid off during a season of unemployment. A million dollars has been set
aside to launch this plan, the money being voted from the surplus cash
reserves or the corporation. This act marked acceptance of the principle
that the liborln'g msn who works loyally tor a firm has an active and
possessive stake In Its success, only less important than that of the stock
holder; and that his Interests, as well as those of the stockholder, should
be preserved during the lean months. . , ;
. The company staled Its. acceptance of the proposition that reserves should
be set up from profits to be paid to the working man temporarily laid off.
Just aa reserves are set up for the stockholder to give him dividends during
the unproductive seasons. That view of the responsibility of the employer
toward the' employe has been gaining converts widely and it finds expression
In the proposals before congress to compel action such as the Wrigley com
pany took voluntarily: to set up. by means of pay roll taxes, reserves which
tfi every plant will provide for the necessarily idle. '
Compulsory unemployment compensation supported by a tax seem In
evitable unless there Is a widespread voluntary following of the example
of the Wrigley tlrm. Meanwhile, that firm has helped blaze the way upon
a path of social responsibility that would have been undreamed ol by
the robber barons of the nineteenth century. The company Is making a
distinctly valuable contribution to the cause of capital and labor peace
and understanding. The plan was not forced, but Is adopted as a recent
and Just policy. It is au enlightening, and possibly a prophetic act.
