LONDON-The passing away CT one
of the greatest contracting firms in
the world, John Arid & Co., is an
nounced for next year. The firm,
which damned. the Nile and carried
cut other great works throughout the
world, will cease to exist next Sep
TENDER, by which time all outstanding
contracts will have been completed.
The decision to go out Of business
has been taken by the present Sir
John Arid. who succeeded his father
in 1911 and inherited from him a for
tune of $5,000,000. The reason given
is that while, the risks Of contracting
are as great as they ever were, the
profits are not nearly so large as they
were some 20 or 80 years ago. Great
plants will be distributed and a staff
of engineers and workmen, who are
said to have no superiors, will be seek
ing new positions as a result of the
action.
John Aird & Co. was started in 184S
by John Arid. a Scottish mason, who
came to London from Ross-shire and
after following his trade for several
years was appointed superintendent
of the Phoenix Gas Company at
Greenwich. There he learned the bus

\!lSNNlAN DEMOCRACY

There is no reason why the President of the United States should not get closer to the American Congress said the Seattle Sun in connection with Woodrow Wilson $ declared intention of using the presidents room at the capitol while Congress in session. Certainly there IS nothing about the suggestion that he expects Occaslon- ally leave the sphunce of the executive office to touch };ms and elbows with members of Congress.
 American presidents in late years have been too elusive It is easier for American citizen to the kuS and empeors of foreign countries, the Pope of Rue than it is for American citizen to the Amerl- can president About the Ouy chance the average citizen ever the President is during the presidents trips over the c0untrv Even some members of Congress who frequently have important and urgent business with the president often find difficult to break through the super facilities which hedge him in.
 Mr. Wilson would democratize position which has been leaning far the other way too much toward the customs and practices of the imperial courts of ancient and modern times in the older countries of the world.
 Nor will it be innovation in American political life for Mr. Wilson, president, to get closer to Congress- Washington talked 10 Congress- face to face, about the state of the Union. There is why Mr. Wilson should read his messages Cor stead O having
 them Derfnctoriv drOned by bad reading clerk, to the torture of the who should hear them. Besides if the President appeared in his person to read his congress- members would not be apt to hurry to the cloakroom during the reading of document, the tents and recommendations of which they should hear
 Of allowance must be made for the fact that the present very busy public official; time with him for much and it would take of his time personally to present his messages to Congress.
 But }r. Wilson has the right idea and put into prac- tce. the idea will tend toward more complete democratz- alton of gOyernet and that would mean return of that confidence which all Americans once had in their pub- them Wsonian Democracy has the look and flavor of the old brand
