LABOR WILLING 19 SHARE PROFIT BUT NOT LOSSES By RALPH HM TAYLOR Profit—and loss! That phrase, to farmers, constitutes an old, old story. Nearly everything in the ‘farming: business, today, is figured on a basis of profit —or loss and the “loss” item plays an’ important part in the story of modern)day agriculture. The farmer who can’t take his losses, along with his gains, even when the losses go on for years without end, eventually ends up without his farm, for a profit-sharing system, ‘which will enable workers to earn more when the business earns more, is 0’ vital interest, not only to agriculture but to alll employers, big or small. Most farmers, looking over their books for the past ten years, would go for a profit sharing system—enthusiastically and unresarve*ly— it it also provided for loss sharing on an equivalent basis. For during’ the last decade, tens of thousands of farmers in Ca‘‘“ornia have paid their hired hands more in wages than they took out in profit at the end of the year. Tens of thousands of farmers, with their capital at stake and all the responsibility of their enterprise, have earned less—net—than the lowliest work t on their farms. In fact, in many ca'ses, the: farmer paid off his crew, in full, and pocketed his loss-—(‘'¢-ring, as farmers do, that ‘it’s the breaks of the game; next year it may ‘be better.” Farm labor, more than most lator has a keen understanding of the other fellow’s problems.. For farm labor, in most instances, knows whether the boss is operating at a profit or a loss. There’s no need ‘to look
him. ‘But ®ne of the first show-downs In the first six months of this + year, the net operating income of all Class One railroads in the United States fell $600,000,000 short of meeting the irreducible minimum of fixed charges. Inasmuch as railroads transport the bulk of farm produce to market, they are of.vital interest to farmers. And inasmuch as most railroad workers can earn far more than most farmers, their attitude— when their bosses are in trouble— is of primary concern. But the story of railway labor, thus far, at least, is far from encouraging. Facing bankruptcy with no means Dy; 0a wage cut, the railroads asked the railroad brotherhoods—the workers -——to share in the losses. And the answer is a ‘threat to strike, coupled with flamboyant charges that the railroads are in cahoots with Wall Street to usher in a@ new depression and that the proposed wage cut is part and parcel of said plot. This ‘writer holds no brief for the railroads—for many times: California’s farming industry has fought the railroads to secure lower freight rates—pbut the fact remains that railroad labor in the United States has been better paid than in any other country in the world. The fact remains that it has shared in the profits, during good times, more than Yet when it comes time to share in the losses to avert common disaster, the leaders of the brotherhoods blind themselves to the facts of the case and indulge in silly statements that their employers want to be broke— broke, : ' The fundamental fact that all labor must come to understand with reWhen the worker shares in the prolosses, in addition to collecting the profits. That’s axiomatic.One good thing, however, come of the profit-sharing discussing between worker and employer.
