nation, not for personal ends; but for the
purpose of conducting the active affairs in
such a manner that equitable conditions
would everywhere prevail
But mankind in it's entirety has failed to
grasp this conception of it's great obligations
to each other and has adopted the concep
ton of the personal or individual self as
distinguished from the universal or COM
munity rights and interests. The truth is
mankind has kept it's eye all the time on
the wrong side of the shield, and thus far
has utterly refused to look on the other
side. the right side: and in the meantime
the individual the personal few have APP
propriated the gold to themselves.
The other side has been taken up in the
work here prepared for public considera-
ton. 1t is perfectly understood by me that
in treating the subjects considered, | have
taken in many respects unusual positions
and treated the subjects discussed generally
in an unusual manner. This has been done
in the hopes and with the expectations that
in treating the matter in that FORM it will
lead us to the true principles involved and,
therefore, to the right lines Of active efforts,
and. thereby. secure a more equitable con-
dition for the people. "A condition that
must in the nature of things be ultimately
attained
1t has been my constant aim and effort
to discover the true and correct principles
Of active life in the economic relations of
the people, and so present them to an in
telligent public that there can be no mis-
understanding. This [ have endeavored to
do regardless of the effect upon the many
erroneous principles now adopted as sound
and which are everywhere practiced by
mankind.
And while | have exercised great care
to be fair and candid in every statement
and to avoid all misleading discussions and
fallacious arguments I have neither ia
vored nor excused any of the existing or
carnations for the course they have pur-
sued in the active affairs of the nation I
have on the contrary, attempted to show
the actual position they occupy, and the
real part they take and have taken in the
development Of the present conditions in
the world Of active effort
When any new and decided changes of
systems and methods of action as in the
work here developed are presented and adj
vocated, no matter in what department Of
life they must necessarily and in fact do,
encounter the prejudices of those who have
been schooled in, and followed the older
systems and methods Of activity even
though they actually see the baneful re-
suits that follow such methods
Prejudice which is generally an unreal
sonable adherence to some fixed mental con-
cepton Of things and their relations to con-
dltlons, is one of the most difficult elements
IN the nature of man to remove. Prejudice
and superstition in this respect are very
much alike, for both grow out of ignorance
OF the fundamental principles involved We
must however, before we can make the
progress in the world that considers the
most perfect economic relations of peoples
and nations overcome our prejudices and
supplant our supersttions.

John A. Bickford COMING

John A. Bedford, of Chicago,
who has made two trips to Morgan
City and Berwick relative to the To-
cation of a mammoth shipbuilding
yard has written to Mr.. M. P. Pal
mer, secretary of the Chamber OF
Commerce, and stated that he is
rapidly completing the necessary
arrangements to begin work on the
proposed Berwick site at a very
early date. Mr.. Bickford's inability
to arrive here on last Thursday, as a
former message indicated, was due
to the delayed perfecting of certain
contracts covering his machinery
operations in his shipbuilding con-
tracts.
The citizens of Morgan City and
Berwick are greatly interested in
Mr.. Bickford's proposed operations
as they will apparently be on large
scale. Everything has ben done to
present the true local conditions to
the Chicagoan and he has given out
the statement that Berwick offers
the most suitable shipbuilding condi-
tons of any one of the many posi-
bic shipyard sites which he had oc-
casion to visit along the entire Gulf
coas:..
Mr.. iBckford will probably begin
operations in Berwick by building
two boats that will cost about one
million dollars. As he is building
these boats on a time contract and
will suffer heavy penalty for each
day lost on the contract, the citizens
of these communities are ready to
extend every possible aid to him in
his effort to complete his contracts
on time. Mr.. Bickford's payrolls
will amount to thousands of dollars
each month.
A meeting of the Chamber Of
Commerce of Morgan City and Ber-
wick will probably be called either
prior to or Immediately following
Mr.. Bickford's arrival.

In my last letter referred to one
Of Louisiana's great resourses-
namely, the strawberry crop. While
It is bringing hundreds Of thousands
of dollars to the State at this mo-
ment, there are many other features
Of this kind worthy of notice, of
which l shall have something to say
later. Just now attention has been
attracted to the greatest gas well in
the world, which was drilled in last
week at Houma, only fifty-four
miles from New Orleans. The well
ran wild for four days and its roar
could be heard for fifteen or more
miles. Men who work about the
well bringing it under control had to
have their ears padded and closely
bound to prevent serious injury to
their hearing so great was the noise.
This well may revolutionize the
lighting and manufacturing enter
prises in New Orleans, as did the
gas-well finds in Shreveport terri
tory for it viii be an easy matter to
pipe gas here. Let it be so.-ByWm

CARE AND FORETHOUCH1
WOULD HAVE PREVENTED
MANY ACCIDENTS.

So excellent has been the reputa-
ton of Southern Pacific employees
for attention to duty and careful
ness that it is always to be regretted
when anything occurs that is not in
keeping with that record.
Vive-President and General Man.
ager w. r. Scott has compiled figues
showing the number Of accidents re-
sulting from equipment on tracks
not being in to clears The state
ment covers the twelve months end
ing January 81, 1917. 1t shows TIA
occasions where accidents that oc-
Cured could have been avoided had
proper care been taken.
These avoidable accidents involv-
ed directly the records of 1876 men,
and included the dismissal Of four
teen men. These facts are hardly
in keeping with what our men them
selves expect in Southern Pacific
efficiency.
Damage to Company property
from these accidents totaled over
$4,000. This is large item itself.
But the bigger question is the dam
age to the reputation and service of
the employees involved.
Discipline of men is always dis
tasteful to managing officers, and
the discharge Of men is against the
instincts Of management. The
Southern Pacific desires to keep its
men and have the work done in such
an earnest and alert way that discip-
line will not be necessary. Care
and forethought would have prevent
ed the necessity Of levying dement's
and save the fourteen employees
from dismissal.
The Southern Pacific Company
has blazed the way among American
roads in the Safety-First movement.
In the public eye it is still the leader
in transportation efficiency. To the
employees themselves goes most of
the credit for this prestige, and it is
to them that the Company looks to

RIG PICTURE PROGRAM SHOWN
HERE THIS WEEK


unusually excellent programs here
this week. Among the most notable
were the two big war pictures, The
Fall of a Nation at the Arcade Mon
day and the "Crisis' at the Evange-
line Theatre Tuesday.
The Fall Of Nation was pic
ture of modern warfare and its
battle scenes were evidently taken
from the battles of the great Europ-
can War. The massive guns and
other war machinery were truly de-
picted and the methods of trench
fighting were demonstrated in de-
tail to the observers. Nanagr
Delas of the Arcade gave his patrons
a rare treat in The Fall Of Nation.
Tuesday night, Manager Loeb
of the Evangeline, staged in the pic
lures Americas greatest American
story, The Crisis. This picture was
pronounced by many local critics to
be the most impressive and realittic
in scene and plot than The Birth Of
a Nation which ranks as one Of the
most wonderful pictures ever pre-
sented. This Crisis dealt with the
events leading up to the Civil War
and with occurrences Of the War per-
iod The characters were strong in
their impersonations and the closely
woven plot of the historic story was
perfect in connection and detail.
Tonight, Morgna City theatre
coers are to be treated to further
rare picture at both local theatres.
The Arcade offers Camille" the
famous Dumas story, in which the
stellar role is portrayed by Clara
Kimbal Young. Few plays have been
more popular in picture or spoken
drama that this story of a woman Of
the Partisan underworld.
Evangeline patrons tonight will
witness two great features in the
first episode Of the unparalleled
patriotic serial "Patria" in which
Mrs. Vernon Castle is starring. This
great feature is the only serial pic
ture ever shown at the Orpheum
Theatre in New Orleans. In addition
to the Patria picture will be seen the
last of the "Seven Deadly Sins"
which is said to be one of the most
remarkable of the complete series.
This picture is complete and it not
a serial. In order to give every one
Of the readers of the Review a
chance to see this splendid program
at The Evangeline tonight, Manager
Loeb has announced that any reader
who will clip the Evangeline Theatre
Ad. out of this paper and present it
with five cents at the ticket window
no further charge of admission will
be made. Unless this is done, the ad-
mission will be ten cents straight to
grown-ups and children. Clip the ad.
so that you can see this unusual pic
ture for only . nickel.
