Those "Regulated" British Unions

Ever since the Supreme Court upheld the U.S. Wagner Act editorial voices have been echoing the demands of the employers that trade unions be saddled with a load of responsibilities to balance their newly won privileges. The Wagner Act is obviously one-sided. It is unfair to the employers and should be amended. Trade unions, for their own good, should be made responsible bodies, as they are in England. The English model is the one to follow. In England trade unions must be incorporated; in England long-drawn-out disputes, so costly to employers, employees, and the general public, are settled by compulsory arbitration.
