- Description:
- The document is from George B. Schwabe, a member of Congress, responding to Mr. T.C. Hughes' suggestion for arbitration to prevent labor strikes. Schwabe agrees with the suggestion and expresses willingness to work towards a fair solution for both labor and industry. The document emphasizes the need for Congress to take action to prevent strikes and proposes a detailed plan for arbitration involving equal representation from both labor and management, with a government-appointed member as the deciding vote in case of deadlock. The document also emphasizes the importance of holding both labor and management accountable for any infractions after a decision is made.
