human sous Our GreAteSe resources
Statistics show that the greatest
undeveloped resources in America are
not our mines. our forests or our
streams, but rather the human souls
Of the men and women who work for
US. The great problem of today is to
develop the human soul, to develop
this wonderful machine which each
one Of us has"
A statement like this from an en-
inent statistician. one accustomed to
obtain his results by painstaking
methods and careful investigation,
affords cause for consideration. No
less an authority than Roger W. Bah
son is the first statistician and econ
omist to avow such conclusions; to
declare that success Of individuals.
communities and nations depends on
the fundamentals of Integrity, faith,
industry, brotherly kindness and in
terest in the soul of man" Further
more he says we owe these to re-
ligion.
This interrelation of commercial
and spiritual life has been considered
by others and presented in various
ways, but never before, so far as we
learn, by charts and figures applying
it to commodities and business pro-
cesses and results. all with the con-
clusion that the great reservoirs of
our spiritual resources have scarcely
been tapped and are awaiting devel-
Opment.

Gently addressed the Southern
Newspaper Publishers Association
on the future Of international friend
ship?
He declared that mutual UNDER
standing between the English and
American nations matters more to
themselves and to the world than
anything else because without under
standing there can be no friendship
and without friendship there can be
no cooperation. Putting the re-
sponsibility for making or marring
the future relationships between the
squarely up to the press, Sir Auck-
land said:
You gentlemen, and all Of your
profession have it in your power, as
spect and understanding between the
nations. Practically everybody reads
some daily or weekly paper. A few
read bound books. A mere handful
studies history. On you and on your
fellows throughout the English
speaking world the burden is laid
BY force Of circumstances. by the
nature Of your calling, you cannot
escape. In your hands largely is the
making Of the international relations
of the future. The hope of mankind
that the last great war has been
fought could be turned by you either
to cruel mockery or advance toward
realization"
Cooperation was the great sson
which the war seemingly taught.
During the stress Of the struggle ma
tons and policies which had previ-
ously been far apart came together
and worked together for the attain

often seemed since then that the les
SON was only temporary in effect and
that the things that were done then
would be impossible now. The great
trouble now is that there is no such
definite aim. If the nations which

the aim to be pursued and so after it
