[FromPublic Opinion,

A very notable confirmation of the article in last week's issue of Public Opinion on "The World Still Moves" is contained in a notable collection of many recent utterances by prominent capitalists, extracts from whose speeches and writings have been collected and circulated by the Central Committee for Economic Information. These show a very strong desire for industrial peace and harmony; a very sympathetic attitude is shown toward the workers, and employers are urged to be guided in their actions by moderation and good will . . . .

The Industrial Welfare Society has also issued a manifesto calling for the removal of factors which cause the worker to be disgruntled and the employer unsympathetic. It points out that in industrial affairs the old spirit of controversial bitterness is giving place to one of reasonableness and compromise and that a wish for mutual understanding is being revealed.
