CONCERNED EXPERTS ASSERT Roosevelt Hits at •All Lines of Industry and Finance ?AILS SAY HOW TO STOP THEM WASHINGTON, Jan. 4 (API- President Roosevelt startled the United States business world today with an emphatic call for the abolition of holding companies in all lines of Industry and finance. He told his semi-weekly press conference In unmistakable terms that his ultimate aim was the elimination of such concerns not only among the power utilities, as now partially provided by law, but In banking and other business and Industrial fields. Wall Street frankly was amazed. Experts on corporation finance were quick to say that more than half the companies whose securities are widely held are holding companies, In some degree at least Of the latter, they said, many actually are operating companies owning outright control of subsid- i-ries, and thus differ from the pyramided type of holding company to which Mr. Roosevelt has objected in the past in the utilities field. So complex was the question posed by the president, in fact, that many financial men said they thought there might be qualiiica- tibBswhteh Mrfr'RcWevHt htP_Wi mentioned at his press conference. Regarding the president's criticism of holding companies in the banking field, and his attack upon "remote control" of local banks, they estimated that four compan- TH0MA8 MacDONALD Nelson ,old timer, who died in Victoria Thursday night following a fall.

O. M. Big- gar, chief counsel for Alberta, today began his argument before the supreme court of Canada In defence of the measures. The bills, designed to Impose a tax on the paid-up capital, reserve funds and undivided profits of banks, to regulate credit and to "ensure the publication of accurate' news and Information," were passed by the Alberta legislature but assent to them was reserved by the lieutenant-governor. They were referred to the court for an opinion on their validity by the Dominion government and Col.

PARI8, Jan. 14 (CP-Havas)- Taik of solving the grave French political crisis was offered to Georges Bonnet, Radical-Socialist statesman and finance minister In the Camilla Chautempts cabinet which fell early today over the Issue of monetary control.

U.S. Citizens Have Free Speech Hull Replies lo Berlin Protest WASHINGTON, Jan. 14 (API- Secretary Hull met an official German protest against a bitter anti- Hitler speech by former Ambassador William E. Dodd today with an explanation that United States citizens enjoy the right of free speech.

BERLIN, Jan. 14 (AP)-A three- line reference to the, protest of the German ambassador, Hans Heinrlch DIeckhoff, to Secretary of State Cordell Hull was all that was permitted to be printed here today concerning the anti-Hitler speech of William E.

Officers of the Trades and Labor Congress of Canada with those of the combined railroad brotherhoods made their annual pilgrimage to Parliament Hill where the prime minister and the majority of his colleagues heard extensive briefs outlining the kind of legislation the workers would like to see adopted. Not attempting to deal with the recommendations in detail, the prime minister assured the 50 delegates his government would give them serious consideration. P. M. Draper of Ottawa, president of the Trades and Labor congress, chief spokesman of the delegation, proposed the government provide an adequate retiring allowance for every person desiring to withdraw from industry or commerce at the age of 60 years, thus opening the way for younger men to find employment. There was no comment from the government on this scheme. Other recommendations, many included in the brief presented by the railway brotherhoods, called for amendments to the British North America act, so the federal government could legislate lor hours of work, unemployment, social and health insurance, regulation of highway traffic and other matters in which jurisdiction is divided as between Dominion and provinces. W. L. Bes, secretary of the railway brotherhood delegation, urged imposition of canal tolls, more equitable taxation and regulation of commercial transportation on the highways and amendments to the income war tax act.

U. de Pencier, of the Anglican diocese ol New Westminster today said the report of the Anglican commission on Christian doctrine, released on London Thursday was "just about what everyone expected." "There is nothing in the report to which anyone can take exception," he said. "The theory of evolution has. been accepted by educated Anglicans lor a long time. "Regarding the virgin birth and the resurrection, the report shows a marked difference ol opinion. The questions have been argued many times. One side ol the question is set lorth by the Archbishop of York and I agree with him." (The Archbishop of York accepts as an historical fact both the virgin birth and the resurrection of the physical body ol Jesus, but recognized that other hCristians in the church may accept neither event as historically true.) Plan to Place (oast Defence Guns in Stanley Park Recalls War Scare VANCOUVER, Jan. 14 (CP) - The department of national defence today moved to protect Vancouver from attack by enemy warships and Vancouver residents recalled a "scare" which resulted in establishment of a coastal defence battery here, early in the Great war. In a memorandus issued at Ottawa today, the defence department said "plans have now been completed and instructions to proceed have been issued" for erection of a battery lor the close defence of Vancouver, In Stanley park. The Vancouver Daily Province said "a similar battery would be established somewhere on the Point Grey headland, a long promontory which forms one shore of English bay, the entrance to Vancouver harbor. The paper said construction of the Point Grey battery might not begin immediately. The Daily Province said two six- Inch guns would be set up at Fergusons Point, on the west side of Stanley park looking toward the Gulf of Georgia which separates Vancouver Island from the mainland. It said the defence department also planned to organize "militia units of coast artillery for training ol personnel to man heavy guns and searchlight batteries. . GREAT WAR SCARES Early in the Great war, when the German Asiatic fleet steamed out ol Tsingtao, apparently bound across the Paclllo ocean, the only Canadian warship on the British Columbia coast was the old cruiser Rainbow, stationed at Esquimau. Her complement was mainly naval volunteers. The British sloops-ol-war Alger- ine and Shearwater were in southern waters. They managed to make their way up the coast, dodging the German cruiser Leipzig, ana reached Esquimau. From Coburg, Ont, a heavy battery was dispatched and these guns were installed at the western end ol Point Grey. Two naval guns were sent to Vancouver from the Shearwater, and they were mounted in Stanley park, some distance irom Fergusons point where the new battery will be installed, * ___£_-_-__,a . . - ; v.v.^aJ--iitM-*^^ ■ ■ ■'■ -...- -«»«"—timiMii <;-,:.. .L^_A.^-....:.,.

James Buchanan, general superintendent ot the company, presented the address in the absence of Mr. Blaylock. "Obligations of Management" was the subject of the address, and it was divided into executive and operating management, the latter being subdivided into three sections: Duty to investors, duty to employees, and duty to the nation. URGES TAX EDUCATION Mr. Blaylock urged that public opinion be educated to protest against extravagant governmental expenditure and needless legislation, and suggested that the establishment of the proper relationship between employers and employees would bring the development of a commercial-industrial party which would force its demands upon governments unless remedial steps were first taken to put government on a sane, sound basis. The present tax burden "confiscated" approximately "50 per cent of tfhe profits made by a company like the Consolidated", he said. This meant half of the 7000 employees of the company were working for the governments and that "over 50 per cent of all assets of the company are expropriated in. the same way." Mr, Blaylock also urged the development of standards of citizenship, and the training of statesmen by well-to-do houses and business houses able to divert funds in this direction. The address follows: OBLIGATIONS COMPLETED "The obligations are so many and so complicated that possibly it would be well tb divide management into two classes; first, the executive, to which class would belong boards of directors, executive committees, chairmen, presidents, vice-presidents, secretaries, treasurers and so forth; and second, the operating management. This class would cover general managers, operating managers, superintendents, and right down to straw bosses. There is bound to be some interlocking between some members of the two classes and between the obligations of the two classes, and I am inclined to think that the more interlocking there is the better. "The obligations of the operating management . . . come under three main divisions: The duty to Investors; the duty to the employees; and to the nation. . "There is, of course, no intention to attempt to decide which of these duties Is the most Important. They are mutually interdependent since none of Ihem can be carried out successfully without full attention being given to the other two. "The duty to the investors Is comparatively simple to state. It is to operate the property in such a manner as to give them the greatest return on the capital invested, together with the greatest security ior tha capital, which cannot be done that capital, which cannot be done plementlng its duty to its workers and its duty to the nation. DUTY TO EMPLOYEES '-The duty to tha employees Is very much more involved and, 1 think, very much less, understood. World thought has undergone a tremendous change In the last 25 or 30 years and is continuing to change at a cumulative and accelerating speed. There is decided evl- »-_, ...,l.i;„ ..fnlnn |_ llOufW dence that public opinion is slowly but surely coming to the idea that .1 surely -_„„,,_. ,_ «.,_ ■_,__ a workman for wages should in ld< J '- c— a wu-i-iu-u _.. ,._.___ , sbme way be considered to have some financial Interest in the company for which he works. I, for one, believe that it is In the best Interest of the Investors to give the workmen some tangible Interest In their profits. As in most cases 50 per cent or more ot the direct operating cost Is labor, It must be to the company's advantage to have that labor as satisfied and as efficient as possible. "There is no doubt that operating managers and many of the executives are becoming firmly convinced that more and more attention must be paid to the security, comfort and welfare of the workmen, and that In general everything wisely done in this connection wlllbe paid tor In the increased efficiency and good will of the employees. "Unless Industry does something of its own accord to bring about these better conditions, which lt als, and which, in high priced periods, cannot be full" absorbed. "This is no', theory or speculation hut has actually been in orce for "the last 19 years. During that period there has developed the greatest friendship between the men and the management of the company, and not one minute of time or one ton of production has been lost through labor trouble. "It is not rtiy Intention for one moment to suggest that everything which my own corporation has do e can be and should be done by all others. I have quoted our own experience and its satisfactory results purely for illustr.'.ive purposes, Each industry ' vast modify Its practice to Suit its special conditions. "When one looks around at the wcrU'. ,to*ay I am sure you will agree that the obligations of management to the Investors cannot very well be fulfilled without iirst fulfilling the obligations to the employees. It is absolutely essential that the men should at all times have implicit confidence In the honesty and fair dealing ot the mnn„;;_- ment. In general this coi.fidence can only be gained by being 100 per cent fair 100 per cent of the time. The way to this confidence can be made much easier by permitting the workers to elect a works committee by secret ballot and without interference or pressure from the management. This committee should represent them in all dealings with the management and be at ail times tnese Deue. .uu-,„..._, , can easily do without any real out of-pocket cost, I am sure that the various governments will feel called upon to pass legislation of one kind and another in an effort to secure more advantage for the working classes. 1 am satisfied that legislation would be one of the poorest and most wasteful attempts to accomplish the desired effect. 20 GIRLS WANTED To Learn Hairdressing Also Boys to Learn Barbering Both these professions provide profitable employment with pleasant sur- sonndlngs and an opportunity for Independence by opening your own shop.

Box 539 Nelson, B. C. IL... WAGE BASES "Wages should be based on three things; First, the base wage should be such that a workman can provide for his family and keep them in comfort, varying with the cost of living, the standard of comfort being that in general acceptance in the community at the moment, since no industry can be economically successful or useful to the community which can only exist by undue exploitation of labor. To this should be added a payment based on the efficiency of his labor. This payment will give himvan incentive to do more and better work. Any savings he may make by eliminating waste should also be counted as efficiency, that is to say, his efficiency, bonus should be based on the savings in the gross cost of his work, In our case we have found that giving the workmen one-half of the amount they can cut the costs by their own effort has been very satisfactory to both sides. "Thirdly I believe there should be a profit-sharing bonus. The correct amount of this bonus is, of^course, open to a great deal of argument. I would suggest as a yardstick for consideration that the total investment in the industry should be con sidered as the shareholders' interest, and one year's payroll as the workers'. As the workmen have already had a living wage as a first charge against the company's earnings, I think the second charge should be a living wage for capital, which could probably be defined as interest and sinking funds or other returns that would have to be paid to keep the industry in healthy existence. Undoubtedly, this rule would not apply -in all cases, and probably lt is dangerous to even suggest any general rule. The giving of a profit-sharing bonus will mean higher wages for the men when a company can best afford tq give them. It will make the men realize that the company is not unmindful of their interest. Over a period of years 1 am satisfied that this bonus will be entirely repaid by increased and more efficient production, TRANSFER 8Y8TEM "Once a workman has established himself with a company his position should be made as secure as possible. Employment regulations should be such that he cannot be discharged without cause. He should not be forced to make good with any one particular foreman, because unquestionably few men can work satisfactorily for every boss. It is essential to see that you are not trying to fit a square peg into a round hole, A workman therefore should have more than one chance to give satisfaction. This can be handled very satisfactorily by a system which enables a boss to turn any employee he is not satisfied with back to the employment office with an open transfer. If the offence is not really serious the employment manager can then give the man a second chance with a second boss, and even a third chance. Three chances, however, should be'sufficient, and a man should be automatically discharged when he has had three transfers. As most men steady down as they grow older, th believe it possible, much recen; legislation In the North America- continent seems to have been designed with the idea of driving ,-. wedge between capital and labor, rather than to help them to ge. together, and certainly the effec: of lt will be to do so whether thai was the intention or not, (Continued en Page Three) I IF HE REALLY LOVES ME...HOW k ■ - -•---_!-_--- ....aBi-ak-si.

WAR CLOUDS ENSHROUD MONTREAL BYELECTION MONTREAL, Jan. 14 (CP)—War clouds enshrouded the St. Henry Dominion by-election campaign more grimly than ever today. Camillien Houde, former mayor of Montreal, running as an Independent against four Liberal candidates of various hues, has made armaments the issue in the campaign closing Jan. 17 when voters will elect a successor to Paul Mercier, Liberal member elevated to the bench, "The government has no mandate from the people to spend money on armaments," Houde shouted last night.

This advertisement is not published or dispjayed by the Liquor Control Board or by the Government of British Columbia By GEORGE HAMBLETON (Associated Press Staff Writer) LONDON, Jan. 14 (CP cable) - Hopes of peace with Eire hang by a slender thread. When Prime Minister Chamberlain and Eamon De Valera sit down at 10 Downing street Monday afternoon they will have with them the support of overwhelming majorities in both countries in an effort to end the economic war. British public opinion desires nothing more than a settlement fair to both sides. Prime Minister De Valera Is reported determined to make no firm political agreement unless the British government is prepared to take some step towards Irish unity. Agreement with Britain over defence and common action in external affairs will, It is understood, be conditioned on a forward move to end the partition. Northern Ireland is equally determined to have nothing to do with Dublin. MORE ABOUT CONSOLIDATED ( Continued From Page Two) "Industry simply canot possibly afford to keep one-half of the men in the industries of the Dominion working to govern us. This undoubtedly is a problem for the executive managements of industry in this country. It must be taken up and must be fought with determination to carry it through to a success. Victory will not be easy to obtain because a very large percentage of politicians and members of the civil ^service have convinced themselves that they and they only know what is good for industry and the country, and have adopted the firm belief that the country exists to provide comforts for the government and civil servants rather than the old idea that the government exists to do the will of the c.untry. As I have already mentioned, I believe the education of public opinion is essential and lt is only through such organizations as the Chamber of Commerce, boards of trade, junior boards of trade and service clubs that this education can be carried on quickly enough to secure the desired result, and every member of these organizations should first of all study the question himself and as soon as he is convinced of what should be done, he should consider it his duty to help in the general education. "A very short study of the Canadian railway situation and the unemployment relief problem — I might almost say 'racket' — to say nothing of all the hard laws, will soon convince a marr that coldblooded sanity must be brought back to the country. "To return to taxation for a minute: Surely our taxes are not properly balanced. "1 believe in a graduated tax but think everyone should pay some small tax, and unless they do so there are not enough people in the higher brackets in Canada to supply the needed money, no matter how high their taxes are. "Canadians in the higher brackets pay higher taxes than are paid anywhere in the world. That this is so is largely due to the astounding fact that the Dominion government refuses to allow the provincial tax to be deducted as a charge against the profits or income, and also that the provinces generally do the same regarding the Dominion taxes. UNJUST RATES "While this is not serious In small profits and incomes where the taxation rate is only one or two per cent, it is most unjust when these combined rates become 25, 50, 80, and even higher percentages. Saskatchewan had a tax which, added to the Dominion, made 110 per cent of a man's income as a maximum This has lately been reduced to 95.6 per cent. British Columbia has 86.1 per cent. It should be comparatively simple to get this ridiculous situation rectified. "It is interesting to know that 91 per cent of the population of Canada paid no personal income tax whatever, and that 1 per cent of the STORE-WIDE BARGAINS SALE OF ALL WOMEN'S FUR TRIMMED COATS Astounding values—all fully lined and interlined.
