woe TRANSITION T0 |] PEACE BASIS IS: NOT DIFFICULT Readjustment Period to Pass! without Any Serious Prob- | lems, Is Opinion of Assist- | ant Secretary of Labor | | WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.—“If we} put ourselves down to ‘winning the} peace’ by drives as we have to win- ning the war, the problems of labor| and industry in the after-the-war/} period will be easily and_ instantly settled,” says Louis F. Post, assistant} secretary of labor. Mr. Post declares he does not anticipate any particular problems) in the readjustment period. “We) changed quickly from peace to war} production,” he said, “and it seems to me that there should be no reason why our factories and our workmen should not be able to change back from the war basis to the peace basis’ as quic making due allowante for such lack of raw materials as may exist, due to seasonal conditions. But, given the raw materials, plants which were manufacturing articles for peace trade before the war should be able to reassemble their machinery | and change their processes back to! the basis of peace production with-/ out so much confusion and delay as many people anticipate.” There is bound fo be certain shift- ing of labor from plants at present solely designed for war work back to plants that were the big producers in peace times, Mr. Post believes; but he regards the Employment Ser- vice of the Department of Labor as a suitable agency. for handling the problems that might arise from such | | \ } shifting and believes that it will be| able to provide workers with jobs as well as to provide workmen for em- ployers.

How-| ever, Post declares, “if employers are | to be guided by the type of men who| have figured all thru the history as| the ‘privileged class,’ who think it) their religious duty to refuse to deal) with organized men, we will: have trouble. If as much disposition will) be shown by the employers to adjust | industry and its problems as the men they hire, the possibility of trouble} will be reduced to a minimum. | “The worker who in peace times) was able to earn $20 a week, has under war wages and overtime, fre- quently been enabled to go home on pay night with $100 in his pocket representing his week’s wages. The man who has experienced this is not going to be willing to stand a ma- terial reduction in it. It is true, of course, that he will be willing to} forget the overtime work he has been putting in, but even should there be} a reduction in the cost of living, | which seems unlikely, the worker is not going to accept a reduction of his wages to his pre-war basis. That, however, is a matter of the individual rather than the union. “Collective bargaining will solve much of that. I feel that there) should be continued existence of the agency represented thru the National | War Labor board. The decisions. of that board, providing for a review) of the wage awards every six months! on the basis of changes in the cost) of living, and more particularly the awarding of the right of collective| bargaining, if entered into thoroly! and in harmonious spirit by workers | and employers alike, will do much) to solve the problem thru the opera-) tion of the shop committees.” FORMER CHIAN ATTORNEY | DIES AT HONOLULU HOME) Robert W.
