Excerpt from Scientific Management and Labor
The list _of labor's charges against Scientific 'management was brought to the attention of the Executive Coun cil. Of* the American Federation of Labor by Mr. Hoxie during the Phila delphia Convention of that organiza tion in 1914, with the request that a committee should be appointed to ex amine the list, with the object of mak ing such modifications, additions or corrections as would be necessary to have it embody the trade union View point. A committee was appointed for this purpose, and afterwards the list of labor's charges was carefully gone over by President Gompers, First Vice President Duncan and Secretary Mor rison. This list contained some charges which had been made by individuals, with perhaps insufficient evidence to prove their accuracy, but inasmuch as they had been' made publicly they were allowed to stand. There were, therefore, two lists of statements, both of which had been given the highest endorsement as to their accuracy which it was possible to obtain. With these two lists before him Mr'. Hoxie prepared a list of the vital points of difference between them.
