Business, Cabbage Heads
and Politics; Jazz Dances
in Catacombs Of Industry

in CatacOmbs OF Industry
|, By WILLIAM TANQUERY
The business man of today is caught in maestrom
of disaster. @
One firm Council Bluffs is reported to have closed
down with 100000 worth of untitled orders on hand.
we'll known sash and door firm of Omaha is
running on the shortened basis and at the beginning of
the trouble already three months behind with its
orders.
Most Of these orders were for finished lumber going
into new houses ..."
From this, some estimate be judged of the vari
Gus indusres held up by the inability of this firm to de-
liver raw material to building contractors.
And still, these men, close mouthed and uncom-
planning patriotic to the core, regously observing
regulations that they feel are instances unwarraned
unduy drastic, and beyond that of little avail.
They feel their losses keenly.
But as one man put it, "We fight out to the bitter
end this time, and next time We'll know what to do"
What did he mean by next time?"
We6 for one thing he meant politics.
This suspension of business activities is making
voter out of the great American business man.
And instead of thinking business he is now devoting
himself to study of cabbage heads and politicians
Ask him who he thinks the cabbage head is.
Once hog-wid convention nominated man for
president who made comment to the effect that you
| shall not cruelty man upon cross of gold.
The business man of today says you shan't cruelty
business on Of fool theories stuck up between
theving profteer and a bolshevistic agitator. .
Politics having been injected into the business of the
country the business has about made up his mind to
put some business into politics.
Wherefore the famous turnover at the Chicago con-
venton during which great white light was turned
upon unknown young from the west is going to
prove ddedy winks affair compared with the grand
smashup that is predicted is in preparation next time.
The observation-disclosures of the country have been

hysera sudden the swapping out of an incandes
cent.
They'll be 1attened out 50 fiat that a gold beaten
beating 1000 leaves to the inch, would quit the job and
\ go to cutting ham for sandwiches.
That's what the business man is going to do, and
he's going to do it in businsss-ike way.
\ And then he's going back to business.
/ But he'll keep his "eye open," for he's learned
peculiar thing that while politics doesn't mix we'll with
business a little business is good for politics.

Some Tough Guy.

Friday night at the movies on
Seventh street.
Leroy Stevenson. the usher, was
standing in the rear, watching Bill
Hart shoot at a bunch of rough
necks.
James Smith walked up the aisle
where he was standing and stepped
on his feet.
Gee" remarked Leroy, as he felt
his corns, ''Dere is some tight peo-
pie in here ..'- '--.
"Ah am toff mug said James.
''ef you doan lax wat All do, cum
outside"
Then the scrap started. James
sun moned his pals from the front
of the theater and was going to
make quick work of the usher, but
Leroy was too quick for them.
He ducked. One of James pals
pulled a gun and fired it at Leroy,
but missed.
Leroy caught hold of James and
the later cussed to beat he band.
Policeman Purcell heard the shot
and rushed in. He arrested the guy
with the gun and also took charge
of James.
The court fined him s25 for dis

Bladensburg-Annapohs
Road Needs Repairing

The roads around the Maryland
environments, it is reported, have
been so badly damaged by the army
trucks that it will consume all avail
able road money in Maryland to re-
pair them. Frank Zouch, chairman
of State Roads Commission, says
there is little prospect for new roads
this year. Nevertheless, the Good
Roads League will make a strenuous
saaasa lis BladsnshNJgs nnapoI j.
n
lature appropriated money last year.
Twenty-one thousand dollars per mile
was not considered sufficient to build
this road in war time. Wherefore
the construction was not started last
year, although the appropriation had
been made.
The construction OF the Bladens-
burg Annapolis road will not only
furnish many men now out of work
an opportunity to earn their support,
but will furnish a cheaper and a
quicker way for the farmers of Ann
Arundel County to get their produce
to market and serve also as a high
way between Annapolis and Wash
ington.

He Loves Occoqsan.

A short while ago Rozier Campbell
finished a seven months term down
the river for selling booze.
There must be something very at
tractive about the workhouse, as Ro-
zier started SHINING again right away
upon his release.
Sergt. Burke, a notorious sleuth
with eagle eyes, camped on Roziers 5
trail.
1t wasn't because Burke believed
that a man who is once a bootlegger
is always a bootlegger.
But he did have a hunch. And it
was a hunch of the kind that nobody
but a cop ever gets.
Rozier sold two half-pints of whisky
to a soldier for a 50 bill.
Sergt. Burke was right on the job,
and took him to the lookup.
