ONLY ONE WAY TO INDUSTRIAL PEACE
Ii THE TEACHING OF THE "' NAZARENE" ' BANK CHAIRMAN'S. VIEW (Special to Mail.) WELLINGTON, This Day. "Much study has been given to the subject of fostering .sympathetic relationships between capital and labour, and many plans' have been evolved to ' harmonise their interests; said Sir.. George •Elliot, 'chairman of directors, in the course of his presidential address at the annual meeting of the Bank of New Zealand at Wellington to-day. Better working lenditions, ' profit-sliljuing schemes, workers' committees, of man l ""' agement, are all steps towards the ulti- . mate goal, but they are none of them in themselves an absolute'solution of the difficulty. My own 'personal conviction is that if industrial peace is to be se- ' cured at all it can only lie secured by both the, employer and the employee making honest efforts to understand and' follow the teaching of the Nazarene of, . nineteen centuries ago. Until-the spirit of that teaching prevails, all attempts to bring about industrial peace must be : > temporary and evanescent—at the best, mere expedients.
