DEATH CALLS THIRTY"

In the death of Judge C. B. Stew
art Ordway has lost man who has
done as much for the community as
any other one person since the town
was started. He connected Ordway
with the outside world so far as pub
licity is concerned: and what does a
town amount to If it has no medium
whereby the news of the community,
the historical events, the accounts of
its resources and a thousand and one
things. might be put into print not
only for the home folks to read but
to be carried to other portions of the
country. Judge Stewart founded the
Ordway New Era. He started the
paper here at a time when there was
very little encouragement for one to
undertake such a venture. He got out
a paper when there was little busi-
ness in sight and he never missed an
issue as long as he was at the helm.
and an issue has never been missed
since that day. so well did he estab-
lish his business He got out a good
newspaper from the very start Fe
gave the community the best that he
had and he possessed the ability that
made what he gave good
He worked hard His paper went
to other districts OF Colorado It
went to other states of the Union. and
it carried with it each week such
mentions of the resources and such
news items as soon placed this dis
triet on the map Of Communication

or why he invented it-but it has al

contest between the law and business
There has always been a contest in
every government between the law and
bad business and do not want to see
that contest softened In any way; but
there has never been any contest be-
tween men who intended the right
thing and the men who administered
the law. But what I want to speak
about is this: One Of the functions of
the federal trade commission is to in

of doing for American business exactly

element, big and little, with which it Is
his duty to deal. Here are created
searching eyes of inquiry to do the
very thing that it was imperatively
that the country should do-look upon
the field of business and know what
was going on.
And then, in the third place, you
know that we have just now done what
1t was common sense to do about the

words, but I do not hesitate to put it

America Now Has Her Place.

One of the most interesting circum-
stances of our business history is this:
The banking laws of the United States
i mean the federal banking laws
did not put the national banks IN a
position to do foreign exchange under
favorable conditions, and 1t was actu-
ally true that private banks and some
times branch banks drawn out of other
countries, notably out of Canada, were
established at our chief ports to do
what American bankers ought to have
done It was as II America was not
only unaccustomed to touching all the
nerves of the worlds business, but was
dfsinclfned to touch them. and had not
prepared the fnstrumentalitfes by which
It might take part in the great COM
merce of the round globe. Only in very
recent years have we been even study
ing the problems OF providing ourselves
with the instrumentalities. Not until
known as the federal reserve act were
the federal banks of this country given
the proper equipment through which
they could assist American commerce,
part of the world where they chose to
set UP branch institutions. British
banks had been serving British mer-
chants all over the world; German
chants all over the world, and no ma
tional bank Of the United States had
been serving American merchants any
where in the world except in the United
States.
We had. as it were, deliberately re-
Trained from playing our part in the
field in which we prided ourselves that
we were most ambitious and most eX-
pert-the field of manufacture and COM
merce. All that is past, and the scene
has been changed by the events of the
last two years. almost suddenly and
with completeness that almost daunts
the planning mind. Not only when this
war is over, but now. America has her
place in the world, and must take her
place in the world of finance and COM
merce upon a scale that she never
dreamed of before.

business men have only slowly become
aware Some four or five years ago
the Congress established, in connection
the Department of Commerce and La
Dor (noW the Department of Com
merce), bureau of foreign and do
mestic commerce, and one of the ad-
vantages which the American govern
ment has had has been that it has
been able to hire brains for much less
than the brains were worth.
Commerce Studied as Never Before.
1t is in way national discredit to
us. my fellow citizens. that we are pay
ing studious men, capable of under
standing anything and of conducting
what they could command in the field
of business; and it is one of the ad-
mirable circumstances of American life
that they are proud to serve the gov
ernment on a pittance. There are such
men in the bureau of foreign and do
mestic commerce. They have been
studying the foreign commerce of this
country as it was never studied before.
and have been making reports so COM
prehensive and so thorough that they
the reports of any similar bureau of
any other government in the world;
and I have found to my amazement that
some of the best of these reports seem
never to have been read All you have
to do in order to find out the details of
some of the greatest fields of activity
in the world in the matter of, business
is to resort to the bureau of foreign
and domestic commerce. but there
again the phenomena that 1 have been
speaking of have displayed themselves
in a very remarkable way. 1t needed
the catastrophe and the tragedy of this
war to awaken American business men
to the fact that these were the things
which they must know and know at once.
once.
And then in addition to that there
was recently created the federal trade
commission. 1t is hard to describe the
functions OF that commission, but all
can say is that it has transformed the
government of the United States from
being an antagonist Of business into
being a friend of business A few years
ago American business men-I think
you will corroborate this statement
took up their morning paper with some
degree of nervousness to see what the
government was doing to them. l ask
you if you take up the morning paper
now with any degree of nervousness?
And I ask you If you have not found,
those of you who have dealt with it all,
the federal trade commission to be
put there to show you the way in which
the government can help you and not
the way in which the government can
hinder you?
