I have seen others settled amicably And the significant fact is this: that the differences which led ann,..n .nmlr to industrial war!.. Eric Johnston fare were often no greater than those that ended in peace; sometimes, in fact they were less serious or even triviaL The outcome, in other words, did not depend primarily on the magnitude of the problems involved. More frequently it depended on the men who did the negotiating and the spirit they brought into the conference room. If my theory is correctand I know that a great many sensible and influential labor leaders hold it too then the common ground between labor and management is invariably larger and more solid than the margins of disagreement. Both groups, in the nature of the case, want the productive machinery to keep going, since they can only lose from an interruption. Both groups want the assurance of stability for the future, since neither has anything to gain from working under the constant shadow of stoppages, strikes, lockouts. Each group, believe it or not, wants the good opinion, the respect, of the other. No one enjoys the idea of being despised and hated by his fellow men, particularly when he works closely with them in an integrated process. What is true of the agement relation is also true of the relation between other elements in the American scheme business between of life and government, between labor and agriculture, between business and agriculture, between agriculture and government. Given two prerequisites, social labor-man- peace is usually possible. Those prerequisites are: 1. A meeting of the contending parties. In hundreds of instances that confrontation is avoided or postponed for reasons of pride, accumulated ill will, or absence of machinery of contact. 2. Discussion or negotiation that and begins with acknowledgment OF AREAS of the definition There are always AGREEMENT. such overlapping areas, and they are always wider, more funda- mental, more impressive than the areas of disagreement. Once the common ground is mutually recognized, the negotiations have a chance of developing into a common search for solutions of existing problems. That was the theory I had held for a Eood many years before I was called to assume the presidency of the United States chamber of commerce. Since then I have had many chances to test the idea in action, and my experience has only reinforced the conviction I had brought to the job. tions could be found only through the friendly and earnest them before, and relaUons between two organizations and the chamber had been rather short of fraternal. Yet the visits were not strained. Somewhat to the surprise of all three of us, a feeling of genuine cordiality developed from the outset I propounded my theory of comy conviction that we could meet as friends and even allies on areas of agreement. Both Murray and Green conceded that the preservation of the American system of free management and free labor was our common task, and that most differences could be ironed out around the council table. Out of these meetings- that r: a grew - For the Home . NEW FURNACES Are Labor and Business Met With President In 1942 I suggested that we make a public demonstration of solidarity and a dramatic management-labo- r pledge of cooperation in producing the instruments of war.
