Excerpt from Annual Report of the State Board of Conciliation and Arbitration: For the Year Ending December 31, 1910 To the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court Assembled. The labors of this Board during the year just passed present the greatest number of arbitrations thus far made, and confirm the belief that, given opportunity, the industrial world prefers to adjust its differences by the results of careful inquiry rather than by the doubtful outcome of hostile activity. When parties in constantly increasing numbers resort of their own will to arbitration as administered in the name of the State, it is evident that the disposition to do so has been fostered by the spirit of existing laws. While the year has had its own problems and tasks, it has also been crowded with the effects of persistent effort operating through longer spans of time. In former years the reconciliation of opposing forces suggested that friendship might be maintained through permanent agreements to adjust mutually or by arbitration such disputes as might thereafter arise. As a result, strikes have diminished in number and importance in quarters where grave disturbances of industry were frequent. Energies once enlisted for strategy and collision sought to establish harmonious relations by means of private adjustments, and when these failed, the trade agreement and public opinion secured the submission of controversies to the judgment of disinterested minds.
