If the latter would view the asshe dispassionately and attempt to ut themselves into the position of. the *ildermen who had to decide it, they ‘shguld see that there was no fair alter- ‘iative; nor a practicable one in view ‘of the overwhelming difficulties of en- -foreing closure. .

All that the council proposes to do is to abdicate powers that are no longer necessary and which have permitted if to impose yestrictions far more unfair than any imagined hardship which removal of them may cause. . Competition is the bogey of mer- chants opposed to.a six-day week. To. be blunt about it, that’s their business, not the council’s. And since the coun- cil obviously cannot regulate equitably it is far better not to regulate at all. Moreover, the hurt that is anticipated will probably prove to be much exag- gerated. That has’been the experience of other cities which. have abandoned unwarranted restriction of business in favor of a policy of letting the mer- chants run their own show. —The Victoria Colonist.

But. a number of stereotyped opin- ions and built-in hatreds wili have-~to be destroyed before profit-sharing comes | into widespread use. oe . Recently a Vancouver man- -ufacturer who had-a generous profit-sharing plan closed’ his factory because a union had been. organized among his. em- ployees. an This man was most strongly opposed to unions. Apparently he felt that profit-sharing eliminated the need for a union and he took the ‘for- mation of a union as a nuis- ance and a personal affront. It was his factory. He had every right to close it. But to an outsider, it seems that his attitude toward organized la- bor was too rigid and inflex- ‘ible. , On the other hand, unions themselves often. fall -into stereotyped and obstinately wrong - headed metheds. of thought. One of the ideas cherished by organized. labor is: that no. employer: ztever makes a. generous: gesture. Generosity is a rare quality it is true, in the horse-trading atmosphere of: the bargaining table. But’ now and again someone on the labor or man- agement side, in a flash of quixotic good humor, decides to offer the boys across the table an even break. It may not happen often, but it does happen. .Unions have generally. op- posed. profit-sharing plans in the past.. They suspected. that profit-sharing wag little more than a device of the boss to delude them with paper re- wards that had no. cash value. In some instances their suspicions may have heen well-founded. . In other instances, employ- ers may have heen prompted by a genuine desire to. keep employees Joyal and happy in thelr work. Unions would be wise to take a second look at the profit- sharing idea. Like any other plan, it can be abused. Fin- ances of a firm, I suppose, might be juggled in such a way that no profits appeared; or profits might be dellber- atcly plowed back Into the business, or simply given away to related or subsidiary com- panies, so as to avold paying out a share of profits to em- ployees. Any profit - shaming plan: would have to be carefully or- ganized, with a number of sufoyuards, before it would be acceptable to hoth sides, Per- haps the trade unions’ re- search bureau, or the govarn- | ment, could draft a sat of standards. for acceptahic pro- ft-sharing plans, There would be. no com- pulaion, an: elther. alda to use - profitesharing, It. could be merely offered ns an alterna. tive to a wage sattlement; perhaps extending over a ‘Jonger term: than the average wage contract, "What about lowsharing?! an. angry buslneasman omnay nals oat this point.

Now. Eisenhower is finding out—to his great discomfiture —that he should have fired Adams at once or stuck to°him. indefinitely. — O ce, ° The three months of indecision--and golf—have not looked good to Americans. Furthermore the Adams finals came just at the opening of the Congressional campaign—the time when the whole afffair will be most embarrassing. — 2. Adams’ final telecast didn’t help him or the ‘Republicans. He tried to pretend he was pure. . . If this were the case—and if his conduct were suitable for a public servant—why did he resign? On moral and _ intel- lectual grounds, Adams looked weaker after the. telecast than he did after the Goldfine expose. so 3. One of the basic rules among executives with a sense of decency is that they personally do their own “dirty work;" that, when a decision or a task is their responsibility, they face up to it and do it no matter how distasteful. -Adams was. Fisenhower's. personal assistant. But when the time came to fire him, Eisenhower, according to the Republican. mouthpiece LIFE magazine, wouldn’t do the job himself, He got somebody else to handle it. Businessmen have a word for such methods. It isn’t a nice‘one. = ' He ., Summing up the whole affair, The NewYork Times. said: “It is the judgment of many competent observers in Washington that no error of commission or omission by President Eisenhower since he has been in office has wrought more political havoc inside the.Republican party than his handling.of the. Sherman Adams affair.’ °°” cs CR mote sharing agreemonti +. stat anemone: : 7 WMT EGRATE “<3 PATA: oO oF. PROCESSING Call your neares!
