Industrial peace plea underscores profit split between capital and labor
The speaker argues that education on economics prompts questions about profit division, not mere wage hikes. He calls for cooperative labor-capital transparency, a clear yearly plan, and a stated set of goals to reduce conflict and build loyalty rather than rely on year-end gifts.
Profit sharing and corporate trusteeship in modern economy
The speaker argues for real profit sharing that fosters saving and a rising wage scale, contending wealth should accumulate in groups to develop the nation. He warns managers act as trustees or partners, urging corporate leaders to serve the public and stockholders honestly to solve the corporate problem. The article notes 400 Technology Alumni Association members at a banquet, with a reception for notable spouses and a crowded Louis Quinze hall including many alumni.
