POLITICAL G0SSIPS

When one class of people has any
thing to say, 1t has become largely
the custom to make a political issue
out Of II instead of a friendly discus
sion, to print 1t in q law book instead
OF a newspaper and to argue 1t be-
fore jury instead of to settle 1t in
the higher courts of Common Sense.
As result, political agitators, polit-
ical lawyers. political preachers and
masculine women are powerful in
politics and dissension, selfishness. in
tolerance and Mysteries run rampant
In public affairs. for when the low.
damp. murky atmosphere of misun.
1t breeds political reptiles, vermin,
bugs and lice which the pure air Of
truth and the sunshine of understand
ing will choke to death.
We have too many self-appointed
interpreters of industry who are in
capable OF grasping the fundamental
principles of business and who at best
can only translate gossip and add
color to sensational stories. No BUSH
ness can stand upon error and might
rules--right or wrong. No industry
can thrive upon Misunderstanding.
for public opinion Is more powerful
than Kings sword.
When prejudice, suspicion and
class hatred prevail, power gravitates
into the hands of the weak. for dema.
gogues thrive upon dissension and
statesmen sicken upon strife,
The remedy lies in eliminating the
middleman--the political gossip-and
| this result can be accomplished by
| the managers OF business sitting
around the table of industry and talk
ing II over with the people, Inter
change of information between indus
tries and the people Is as necessary
| to success In business as Interchange
In commodities. for the people can
only rule when the public under
stands. Away with political interpret
ers who summon evil spirits from
their prison cells and loose them to
prey upon the welfare of the people
| In the name OF My Country"
