Bishop's Stand On Peace Labor Voices From Catholic Leaders

In a women's sectional meeting, Rt. Rev. Msgr. Michael J. Ready urged helping the social obligations of faith, not treating church social teaching as politics. At labor sessions, Bishop Alter of Toledo and Bishop Bergan of Des Moines proposed labor shares of stock and management, arguing workers' stakes reflect their long partnership in business. They said property must be broadly distributed and industrial democracy requires worker-employer joint bodies, with strikes as last resort and vows to repudiate violence.
