WANT ADV.
• meetings
talk about at
' my wife asked
XAUC . . .
•*What dp they
these conferences?'
me.
She was reading the front page
of a newspaper which headlined
one conference after another about
, strikes.
"I don't know,*' I said, **I sup
pose they discuss labor’s demands
and try to see jf they can come
to some agreement.**
"But," she, complained, "these
headlir always say just about
the same thing. They either say
that no agreement was reached or
that another conference is beinv
planned. In some of the strikes
people have been meeting fer
months and nothing seems to hap
pen. I can’t see what they talk abont
all the time."
My reaction — a sort of defense
of the male—was to try to point
out that men of importance don't
sit around together by the hour
without discussing subjects of
weighty concern. Women might,
yes. But not busy business execu
tives. But as I tried to build my
case, I too began wondering what
op earth did keep the conversation
rolling at these long-winded confer
ences.
CONFERENCE . . . delay
After struggling w}th this myste
rious problem for some time, I
finally came to the conclusion that
one of those many conferences be
tween Mr. Anderson of General Mo
tors and Mr. Thomas of the
United Automobile Workers must
’have gone something like this-
Mr. Thomas: Well, are you goinj
to give us 30 per cent?
Mr. Anderson: No.
Thomas: What’s your best offer
today?
Anderson: 13 per cent And that’s
final.
Thomas: You know we won't ac
cept that.
Anderson: You know we won t go
any higher.
(Thomas lights a cigar 30 per
cent longer than the average cUar.
Anderson lights a short pipe They
sit at the conference table glaring
at each other. After an hour of
silence. Mr. Thomas clears his
throat impatiently.)
Thomas: Any change yet?
Anderson: Nope.
(Each gets out a newspaper and
begins reading. After anothei Hour
Mr. Anderson breaks the silence.)
Anderson: Ready to take 13 per
cent yet?
Thomas: Nope. Still 30 per cent.
Anderson: It’s getting late Shall
we call off. the conference?
Thomas: Okay. What will we tell
the papers?
Anderson: I’ve just written out *
statement. Here.
Thomas: (reading) "After con
ferring until midnight, no agree
ments were reached although the
union representative indicated that
he would be willing to consider a
compromise proposaL"
PUBLICITY . . . repetition
Of course, if Mr. Anderson did
hand Mr. Thomas a statement like
that, the conference would continue
in a more explosive vein. Like this,
perhaps: i
Thomas: Whatdoyuh me~ 1 am
willing to compromise?
Anderson: You made that ^ry
clear two hours back when, alter
I refused 30 per cent, you asked
for my best offer.
Thomas: Well, we’re not giving
any statement like that to the pa
pers.
Anderson: Then what do you
want to tell them?
Thomas: I want to tell them that
you are trying to stop progress,
that you want to beat down the
working man, that you won’t bare
g8 5 r, with us, that . . .
Anderson: What I want to say
wouldn't be fit for print, but do you
want to get together on s joint
statement?
Thomas: I Just want to give tfae
public the facts.
Anderson: You mean you want
to confess that the union is trying
to high-pressure us into increasing
the cost of automobiles, that you
will admit the fallacy of seeking
higher wages when production is at
a standstill, that . . .
Thomas: Don't try to be funny.
I guess we have to issue the same
old statement. Have you got a
fr^sh copy?
.nderson: You mean the one
Leaded "Conferees Fail to Agree"
or ‘Conference to Be Continued”?
Thomas: Haven’t we got an> oth
ers'* My members are getting fed
up with those.
Anderson: (thumbing through
papers* Let’s see .... well, here’s
one we haven’t used for a month
— "Conferees “'vplore Areas of
Agfo^-Tjent.”
Thomas: Okay, give them that
one And next time let’s go home
earlier I’ve been missiiig out on 30
per cent of my sleep.
“Within the memory of living
men, cotton was only a fiber crop.
Today, its seed brings as much
as the fiber did 50 years ago; in
