For many years it has been custo-

a wallop at John d. If he gave ten
thousand to charity, we figured that
he would salve his conscience by
raising the price Of oil.
Whichever way the cat jumped,
John D.. would land in front of it.
A few years ago the giving Of a
million to charity would create a ma
tional stir. Today it is nothing.
John d. gave a hundred millions
to philanthropy Christmas morning,
and by night the story was too old
for repetition.
But John d. is different from some

OF course, there are other side

duces tangible results.
There are three distinct attitudes
which person may assume toward
the community which houses and

SERVICE is REMEDY FOR
INDUSTRIAL CHAOS

An Attitude Of service is the only
remedy for the present industrial
chaos. This was the dominant tone
Of the convention Of the American
Economic Society at Chicago last
week, as reported by Walter ]. Math-
erIy, head of the Department of Eco
nomics at Georgetown College.
Four great industrial problems
confront creative thinkers in 1920,
Professor Matherly said. Interna-
tional trade and foreign exchange
must be adjusted, industrial democ-
racy must be established, the high
cost of living reduced, and the rail-
road problem solved. These questions
we're discussed fully By the econo-
mists and business men at Chicago.
Foreign moneys are at the lowest
rate rate since The Tie beginning of foreign
exchange. The English pound ster-
ling, which in normal times sells for
$4.S7, is now worth only 1914. The
French franc has dropped from 10
cents to 10 cents. The German reisch-
mark, formerly worth "a cents, is
hardly worth two cents now in United
States money. This condition of for
eign exchange means that the United
States will be forced to accept pay
ment for all exports in foreign goods.
It means also that America will have
to make all foreign accounts of long
duration.
There are three forces to be taken
into consideration, the Kentucky
economist said in discussing indus
trial problems. These are dissatisfac-
ton on the part of workers, with the
nature Of industry, dissatisfaction
with the management Of industry, and
dissatisfaction with the workers
share in industry. Democratic prin-
ciples must be applied to industry
as we'll as government. Professor
Matherly believes, and the absentee
owner must be eliminated as far as
possible.
There are three remedies, he said,
for the high cost of living. An in
crease in production is the principal
remedy. During 1919 production in
the United States actually decreased
while in other countries it increased.
A second remedy is to deflate cur
rency. There is too great an infla-
ton Of currency at present, and this
brings about speculation. Thrift is
the third remedy for the high cost of
living.
The railroad problem is perplex-
ing, the Kentuckian declared. The
Plum plan is discredited, though it
contains many good points. Mr..
Glenn E. Plum was present at the
convention and made very sane and
effective plea for his own solution
Of the railroad problem.
The Mt. Sterling advocate., 1920-01-20

A Paris seeress predicts that 1920
will be a year of turmoil in America.
In that, however, we find some con-
ISOLATION. She didn't predict that it
would be worse than the year that
has passed.
