BUILDERS SANCTION
NEW LABOR POLICY
Collective Bargaining Advo
cated in Dispute Between
Employer and Employe
A new Bjstcm of determining wages
and EettlliiB labor disputes lias been or
ganized hero and In other cities by tho
Xatlonal Association of Builders' Ex
changes In an effort to avoid strikes.
The new plan, bated larKely on Mis
Kestlons by John D. Rockefeller, pro
vides for collective bargaining between
employers and emploes. Local boards
of conciliation will be established in all
largo cities, at which the workers and
their employers will gather at lnfor
mal conferences to nrrlvo at a common
understanding n disputed questions.
The plan was described yesterday by
John It. Wiggins. 135 South Eighteenth
btreet, member of tho board of control
of tho National Association of llullders'
Exchanges and former president of the
organization.
Tho board of control, ho said, will es
tablish a central body to deal with labor
questions, to be known as the Employ
ers' Association. TUils body will In turn
organize tho local boards, upon whom
tho settlement of controversies will
chiefly devolve. This new policy, ho ex
plained, was necessitated by new prob
lems arising since the end of the war.
"A spirit of co-operation," he said, "Is
tho purpose of tho new scheme. Wo
want to be able to meet the workers In
a friendly, Intelligent way so that wo
can tallt over our troubles and under
stand tho viewpoint of each other.
Wage vscales will, if possible, be deter
mined by contracts. Under the agree
ment of both parties, thoso contracts
will bo regarded as Bdcred under alt
conditions. This vv:iy of dealing with
labor questions will, I think, avoid
many costly strikes."
