'Responsibility Is To Labor, Public'
The first responsibility of modern management is to labor and the general public, not to ownership. Domenico Gagliarlo recently told members of the Society for the Advancement of Management.
"Management carries more responsibility in maintaining democracy than labor or ownership," Gagliardo, professor of economics, said.
"For the sake of Democracy, management must strive to seek closer co-operation with labor and the public."
Speaking on labor problems, Professor Gagliario stated that few people are opposed to organized labor, but that they are resisting the demands of labor. He also said that some of labor needs to be "tamed," but the entire labor movement should not be weakened.
New $500,000 Women's Dorm Will House 190
Preliminary plans are being drawn for the construction of a women's dormitory that will house about 190 students and cost about $500,000. Irvin Youngberg, director of dormitories, said today.
Mr. Youngberg said that he hopes that construction bids can be received for the women's dormitory this summer and that the hall will be ready by the fall of 1949.
Plans for a mens' dormitory and residence halls for men and women students will be drawn up after construction begins on the women's dormitory, Youngberg said. He added that high construction costs and scarcity of materials have held up action.
The new building will be attached to Corbin hall and will extend north and east from the north wing of Corbin. Kitchen and heating facilities of Corbin will be used, but in other respects the new dormitory will be separate.
Funds for buildings were made available by the state legislature during its last session, Mr. Youngberg said. The legislature authorized $250,000 for this fiscal year and the same amount for the next fiscal year. A law was also passed by the legislature which will allow construction of University buildings on borrowed funds.
