Nor 50 many years ago a young machin-
list with q big idea was building up
a pneumatic tool business in Chicago.
50 fast was his business growing that he found
himself without the capital he needed. He
owed $4,000, and his customers owed him &c.,
900. and orders were piling In.
That $4,000 was perfectly good but 1t was
slow coming In. The orders we're an additional
asset. The problem Of getting the cash to
meet payrolls and material bills and to install
new machinery seemed insoluble.
His difhculty. as analysed in later years. was
that he did not know how to get the bank
credit he needed and was entitled to. Linked
with a constitutional horror Of borrowing money
and an almost fierce independence Of spirit was
an ignorance Of the language Of finance.
Frankly. he stood In awe Of the bankers.
And so he writhed and squirmed and cut cor.
ners. Finally success came. Eighteen years
after he had quit running an engine on the
Burlington railway he found himself at the
head Of a two million dollar business. the domi-
mating figure in the pneumatic tool Industry Of
the country.
Since then he has had wide business ex-
perience. He is an authority on finance and
foreign trade as well as domestic trade. He
ranks a. one Of the nations most successful
Business men. But the thought Of that period
whep he needed capital and did not know how
to I'D It abides with him.
OFT Of that remembrance is coming some
thing which may prove helpful to all businesses
In the country. for the man is +. N. Hurley.
vicechairman Of the Federal Trade Commits
sion.
A few months ago the commission announced
tts consideration of q plan proposed by Mr..
Hurley for an activity on the part of the CON-
mission In the aid Of business. Briefly It is to
bring about the adoption In each Of the 400
odd classes Of trade and industry Of a stand
ard form Of accounting and a standard system
OF credits. Trade journals and trade organi-
zations throughout the country have pronounced
the idea sound.
Credits. in the opinion Of Mr.. Hurley. are
essential to the conduct Of modern business and
industry. Proper credits can be based only on
exact knowledge Of the condition Of the bust
ness requiring credit. That knowledge must
include complete information as to every item,
Of costs. profit. turnover and the like. In other
words. 1t must he based on scientific account
ing. And scientific accounting Is yet In its
infancy In this country. AS compared with the
development Of scientific accounting in bust.
ness and industry In some European countries
The result IL that many businesses do not get

high that 1t lid not seem to pay to analyze the

suggested that the territory be divided

that cheap apples be dried and thus
keep the cheaper grades off of the
