Talk on Personal R “Personnel relations” was the sub-| ject discussed by George D. Halsey of Woodward and Lothrop.. Dr. John A. Ryan, director of the National Catho- lic Welfare Council, was chairman of he meeting. He will preside as chair- man of the committee on industry of the national conference of social work, at fts fiftieth anniversary ses- sion. Mr. Halsey pointed out that during the last half century many industries | had grown so large that the “human touch” had been lost, aml that th’ problem of personnel administration is to bring it b He declared that there are two viewpoints, that of those who say that armed neutral- ity is the only solution vt the prob- lém of harmonious relations of em- 1 ployer and employe, and those who say that the tundamental interests of both are the same in a properly planned and managed institution. Closer Mutual Trust. In a departmoent store, Mr. Halsey said, the problem is simpler i in lirge manutacturing there is a closer mutual trust between management and worker. The diffi- culty lies in the expusure of the em-} Rloyes to the public, so that a grouchy ) “mploye In a department store comes into contact with hundreds a day, whereas a similarly amicted person | in a plant does not meet people and theretore does not rub them the Wwrong way, in fact, he may be a very capalle employe despite his “grouch.” ir. Halscy told of the divisions of work at his store, outlining the work ©of the empioyment scction and show- ing that its acuvities are to the (mulu:n interest of employer and em- ploye. He told of the work of the training section, botu routine train- ing and training for pro.otion, and sald that this activity, too, was for thie interests of both empioyer and employe. Similarly he considered the questions of wage payment and industrial democracy. Of the latter he said that it means a sincere de- sire on the part of the employer to give the employe a real part in the determination of his activities. “Too many plans, he said, are de- aigned by the management and hand- ed to the worker. The best first step in industrial demecracy, Mr. Halsey declared, is to allow employes to buy stock in’ the company, and therefore allow them to participate in the sains and losses of the frm. -liss Ethel M. Smith, legislative secretary of the Natlonal Women's Trade Union League, who was down on the program to “present the views of one whose attitude is critical,” did {not appear.
