...themselves together for the purpose of selling their labor power collectively to their employer instead of making individual agreements"; (2) "as the employer has the right to bring in any assistance he may desire in carrying on negotiations, there is no reason why the employee should be denied a like right"; (3) "collective bargaining, which is the negotiation of agreements through the representatives chosen by the respective parties themselves, does not mean recognition of the 'closed shop' unless the agreement so provides."

...Rice's condemnation of the policy of the Military Science Committee in asking Harvard to champion the cause of universal training seems somewhat unwarranted. To ask a College like this to remain silent on such an important issue is to deny it one of its chief functions. It is to the colleges above all other institutions that the country looks for opinions as to our military policy; for it is the colleges who will be called upon to share a good portion of the burden should universal training be adopted.

Now that war is over, labor, willing to compromise on many questions and expecting like concessions from the other side, meets, capital. But capital, which has swallowed far bigger pills in its day, refuses recognition of collective bargaining a principle under which it has been tacitly working many years. This principle labor cannot abandon without losing all for which it has fought so long...
