most of the serious shortages in mere plumbing and heating for new homes will disappear in 194s but steel pipe is likely to star scarce because its made largely from american skelp which continues tight so said w c hodgson of toronto in his report as retiring president to the 15th annua meet ing of the canadian institute of plumbing heating in montreal heres what strike arbitrator thinks are some union officers messenger boys for unreasonable elements in the union should management give union- a full schedule of job classifications and wage rates hon c p mctague of toronto answers yes to both these ques tions in his important arbitration finding in the dispute between canada packers and burns and co and the cio packinghouse workers union as was expected the finding follows closely the general pattern of the swift canadian settlement which was reached without govern ment intervention there are one or two important additions notably a nostrike pledge assuring peace at least until aug 194s but the arbitrators pungent opinion on current union and unions are entitled to exercise management practices should be of their own disciplinary rand formula will necessarily pro mote greater responsibility on the part of the union therefore good industrial relations i think on the other hand that the modern tendency is in the direction of non- compulsion as far as minorities are concerned

king street east oshawa ontario stouffville machine tool works telephone 253 rear of cnr station electric and acetylene welding farm machinery greatest interest to management and labor generally for example he is afraid that the tendency of packinghouse union officers is to merely collect the maximum demands at conven tion time in may no matter how exorbitant or extravagant then in june they are presented to the companies this he says is a technique which may satisfy very aggressive and unreasonable mem bers but it is far from being a con structive foundation for collective bargaining it does seem to me he goes on that union officers have some responsibility in formulating de mands which carry their own judg ement rather than making them selves mere messenger boys for unreasonable elements company tardy in replj ing on the company side he feels there is a tendency to hold back a reply to the union for an un reasonable length of time then the trouble begins the con tract expires meetings are neld and a strike results then the true collective bargaining process begins to take place in the very worst auspices for its success in the midst of a strike this mr mctague says must be j clear to the parties as bad collective bargaining but perhaps it is healthy that a third party should say it if a healthy relationship is to be built up he feels union demands must be of a responsible kind and the companies must reply promptly as for making wage schedules available to the union the arbitra tor says i was amazed to learn that in this particular industry there was no provision for com munication of classifications and wages to the union both companies submitted that they were always prepared to dis close the wage rates of an individ ual workman but were not prepar ed to disclose the full schedule i am of the opinion that this goes to the root of genuine collective bar gaining how can bona fide collective bargaining be carried on when the union is kept in the dark as to classifications and wages paid i think a clause should be introduced into respective contracts by which companies undertake to furnish the union with a schedule of class ifications on the issue of the packing in dustrys being national in charac ter he says i do not believe that wages should necessarily be made uniform throughout nei ther on the other hand do i be lieve that certain districts should remain chronic lowwage areas be cause of factors that are not funda mentally related to wages at all against rand formula on union security for a time i thought the solution lay in the rand formula however this involves compulsory checkoff a principle which does not appear to have received recognition in any provincial legislation except under certain conditions in nova scotia i have grave doubts that the measures over their members but i do not think that an employer should be placed in the position of providing additional sanctions or depriving employees of the right to work merely because the employee has got into difficulties with the union an apprenticeship scheme for journeymen in the building trades adopted by the united kingdom in 1944 provides for a long term recruitment
