Big Business
Sees Things in
Broader Sense
Chicago Meeting Realizes Need
of Naturalization Of Trade
By Archer Wall Douglas

Chicago, April 12.
1T is the constant and vicious weak
ness of most class organizations in in
dustrlal life, employers Or employees,
that sooner or later they degenerate
into mere associations for the promo
tion of class interest, with but scant
regard for the welfare Of all else out
side the pale. To the extent that they
do this, just to that extent do they
weaken their influence with the gen.
eral public, who are always suspicious
and quick to discover "the nigger in
the woodpile." So it came about that
the rather long-hcaded founders of the
Chamber Of Commerce of the United
States early recognized, if they wished
20 realize their frank ambition of be-
coming a strong factor in economic and
in political life, where politics trenched
on business, that they must avoid alto
gether the procedure that usually char
acterlzed similar organizations.
1t is this principle which strikes you
most in listening to their proceedings,
and If any of their members feel dis
sent with this programme it certainly
fails to find any especial expression.
Of course it takes time to have this
creed of the welfare of the country
first, and that of business afterward
soak into the general outside con-
sciousness. since the public is entirely
aware that the platforms of many or
carnations are intended for public
consumption and not for private guild
ance Moreover the economic truth
that what is good for the general well
fare is equally good for each separate
constituent of that welfare sounds very
well in a speech, but is not so obvious
to that large contingent in every phase
of life who are mostly engaged in look
ing out for themselves.

call money rates declined from s to

in the time money situation, owing
to the unwillingness of the banks to

Don't Let Soap
Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair. be
careful what YOU use. Most apps
and prepared shampOOs contain too
much alkaH. which is very injuri-
Gus. as il dries the scalp and makes
the hair brittle.
The best thing TO use is just PLAIN
mulsihed cocOanut oil. for this is
pure and entirely greaseleSS. It's
very cheap. and beats the most ex-
pensive soaps or anything else all to
pieces. You can get this at any
drug store. and few ounces will
last the whole family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with wa
ter and rub il in. about a teaspoon
full is all that is required. IL makes
an abundance of rich, creamy lath-
er cIeanses thoroughly, and rinses

and evenly, and is soft. fresh look
