Babson Advocates Labor Security May Aid Investors
Babson argues that union security clauses similar to stockholder rights may aid investors by enforcing discipline through the War Labor Board rules. He cites recent WL B decisions on the General Chemical, Western Cartridge, and Yellow Truck cases, noting a trend toward secret ballots and limits on closed shops, while warning about postwar excess supply and the need for cooperation among unions, capital, and workers. He cautions against racketeering and urges preparation for postwar problems through collaboration guided by ethical principles.
