To HELP BIC
BUSINESS
Administration Can Not Set Back
Hands of Economic Clock,
Says Forbes
By B. c. FORBES.

America is a big country. 1t has
won its way by doing big things in a
big way. TO stil forge ahead. it must
do bigger things in bigger way
Tho Wilson administration is trying
to stay this foreordained process.
business men declare
SayaEes do not Fnow enough to If
fec, organization. Each goes his own
way Cooperation in supplying wants
is unknown. Consequently they sc.
no forarder.
But the United States can not 90
back to the happy go-lucly indiyidu-
alism of the savage. And no admin
istration can turn the hands of the
economic clock backward.
Bigness is too often confounded
with badness
Littleness is not necessarily a viz
tue.
viii any sane man argue that
America could hold her own in the
worlds market places were every
large business concern to be split into
small units? In the hurry burly Of
foreign competitio" the giant IS apt to
overcome the rigmy, The powerful to
defeat tho weak. The $4,000 organi-
cation stands slight chance of con-
quering a new continent if a $780,
100000 combination is also in the field.
Corporations represent co-opera-
ton. And surely cooperation is not
in itself crime. Is not virtually
every great movement a species of
operation?
Government is nothing but one
form of cooperation; indeed,s it is
the biggest of all combinations.
Educat ional systems are the en-
bOdiment of operation.
Religion is propagated by co-opera-
ton and counsels it.
.
Without cooperation We would
have had no transcontinental rail-
roads. An individual can run a stage
coach, but can not build or operate a
railroad.
Steamship services are established
and maintained through operation.
But an individual can row a small
ferryboat.

presented this week by Eddie Black

Machinery invariably involves CO.
operation, both for its manufacture
and its operation. And machinery is
only Ia its infancy.
Industry has graduated from the
rud.mentary one man stage. il now
necessitates grand scale action. it
demands more capital than one purse
can supply. It need the pooling Of
many purses and the cooperation OF
more than one pair of hands

In a nutshell. Big Business must be
regulated Il can not be abolished.
To seek TO tear apart every large
enterprise is the quintessence of pin
headed folly
But to effectively regulate every
enterprise in the public interest were
the height OF craftsmanship.
That ought to be the goal Of our
Government Just as it is the goal OF
the German Government, admittedly
among the most advanced and the
most successful industrially IN the
whole world
The thing can be done. Most OF
our business leaders are willing to
aid in bringing it about. If the poll
ticians would study fundamentals

peacefully and eXpeditiously. Some

reality anti business. little as well as

misunderstanding Of the very rudi-
ments of trade and commerce. If en-

chaos would be precipitated The
trainers of these impossible bills pro-
fess to mean well; so do 'all schemers.
But in this workaday world men are
usually Judged by results, not by their
intentions. The public have little pa
tience with ignorance that brings ruin
to innocent parties
Were America to prohibit blgness
in business her foreign competitors
would quickly pass her in the race for
markets. Cooperation Is essential to
twentieth century Industrial success.
And the puny cooperation of to-day
will doubtless look Liliputan 70 our
descendants Of the twenty first CEN
fury.
When cooperation is abused the
door for successful competition opens.
Under proper governmental regula-
ton abuses can be summarily dealt
with. In future the alternative of
Government ownership will enter
more prominently into consideration
whenever any dominating clique Of
men or trusts persist in flouting the
public will and convenience. Really
big men already realize this.
Only little people, only little politi-
clans are oosessed with the notion
that what the nation needs is Little
Business. Brains that think big un-
deTstand full we'll that America needs
Big Business-Bigge Business than
we have yet conceived.
The Administrations mistaken at
titude is vividly revealed in its per-
sistent attempt to cut one continuous
railroad in half, to disjoint it. The
truth is that the United States could
be better served if we had a dozen
strong railroad systems instead of
hundreds investors would have
fewer causes for regret.

JOHN A PHILLIPS. zss--
Caddo. Okla.
Durant weekly news. (Durant, Choctaw Nation, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 190?-1944, 1914-05-08
FOR STATE TAX COMMISSION.

In his speech at Shawnee Judge
r. L. Williams advanced an idea
that is worthy of the consideration
of every thinking man.
Our present system of assessment
of property often imposes serious
hardships on individual taxpayers.
For instance. a~elass of property or
county may appear to be assessed
too low. The state board of equah-
zation raises the class or county and
individuals therein may have already
been assessed at actual value. The
raise" then brings their valuation
far above actual par value. Judge
williams favors tax commission
with power to adjust such matters
without going into district court.
The paragraph of his speech on
this proposition is as follows:
''I am in favor of amending the
constitution so as to abolish the
state board of equalization and
create state tax commission with
both administrative and judicial
power so as to adjust all controver-
sizes as TO equalization and assess
ment. This can be done without
creating any additional expense to
the taxpayers. State officials, now
members of the board of equaliza-
ton. not having to perform such
duty can get along without a dep

the essential welfare Of the state
general and not individual benefit.
These men responded to the call
of Judge Williams candidacy be-
cause they were fully convinced Of
his ability and fitness for the gov
ernorship Of Oklahoma. AS n mat
ter Of detail knowledge and accurate
understanding of governmental ar
fairs they realize that Judge Will
liams is without peer in the state.
The theme has been his life's study.
His ideas are tempered by mature
experience; his theories OF states
manship are constructive.
Judge Williams is a. combination
Of inflexible will, determination the
finest sympathies and inherent pa
triotic devotion TO public uplift. AS
governor he Will be rigid in the en-
forcement of the law. as well as in
clined at all times to deserved char
ity and leniency. He will exact
constant application and conscienti-
Gus service, together with strict adj
herency to open honesty, from every
department and attache Of his adj
ministration. Judge Williams will
have personal knowledge OF the con-
duct of every state official and en-
ploye, and viii have no patience or
mercy upon the man who violates his
trust. TO go wrong will mean TO ir-.
retrievably forfeit his friendship and
consideration, as well as position un-
der HIM.
The private and public life OF
Judge Williams is a guarantee of the
accuracy Of these statements. Fur
thermore, he will not be susceptible
to the deceit or cajolry of designing
political grafters. Not only is ne a
man of the keenest discernment, but
ne reads men and their motives with
exceptional accuracy.
The constitution wisely provides
that the governor may veto any item
OF appropriation he sees Fit. This
will mean when Judge Williams is
elected that appropriations will be
knitted to the very minimum neces-
sary for the efficient operation of
government. This, together with the
TACT that he is the type of man who
will be positive in every requirement
is a guarantee of an enormous saw
ing of pubic money.
Judge Williams is not a demagog-
ue and will make no false or extrav-
agant promises for the sake of ele-
walton to office. He is a Democrat by
nature. by environment and by dis
position. He is open to counsel. but
is essentially a man who thinks for
himself. He will apply remedies to
every abuse. every impracticability
and every injustice in the govern
ment of the>state, county and munie-
ipality. He will point out practical
remedies to the legislature and will
be entrenched with incontrovertible
proof as to the expediency and feas-
ibiiity Of HIS every recommendation.
II is upon the realization OF these
facts, and not Upon the elements of
personal friendship. that is based
the popularity OF Judge Williams
candidacy. The men who are sup
porting him are doing so because
they are abundantly assured by the
character and equipment of the man
that they are in reality supporting
good government. A realization of
these facts has made Judge Williams
election practically certain.
