BIC bU SINESS ONE
OF THE ENTAILS
Of NATIONS SU CCESS

Washington, Oct. 2i.-The time has
now arrived when many mistakes
must be corrected if the United
States is to return to its previous
financial stability and prosperity, Sol
Wexler, of J. s. Bache 4 Company
of New York, told the American
Bankers Association in its convention
here today. The most pressing and
important of these questions were de-
fined by Mr.. Wexler as follows;
Complete revision of present tax
laws, so that industry and initiative
is not destroyed and business bank
rupted
Restoration of the price of liberty
bonds to more nearly the price at
which they were issued.
Establishment of an Intelligent
and competent consular service In
foreign countries to assist American
export trade.
The passing of anti-sedition laws,
so that those who do not favor our
form of government and attempt to
agitate the public mind in the direc-
ton of violence and disorder, can be
where they can do no harm.
1--WE must urge business-like and
economical administration of govern
ment functions, rehabilitate our brok-
en- down postal system, establish and
live up to n budget Of expenditure.
1--WE must educate the public on
the subject of what n money center
$50 called Wall StreetD really means,
and how necessary such a center is
to the security of funds necessary for
the carrying on and development OF
the country as a whole
Mr.. Wexler declared that without
the complicated and efficient ma
chinery OF Wall Street, for the dis
tributon of securities and mainte'
nance of ready markets, "our railroads
would have a difficult time financing
their equipment purchase, our copper
and silver mines would not have de-
veloped so rapidly, our motor COM
panies would be many years behind In
their perfection of the automobile. and
their production on quantity basis.
"The machinery of Wall Street has
made it possible for every one. from
the financial magnate to the humbles'
briclllayer, TO participate in the earn
ings and equities OF our large enter
prise is due to this gigantic partner
ship of the American public that the
rapid development of our industries
has been made possible"

knew the Republicans were not taking
sides in the fight, that it was up TO
the Democrats to run city affairs.
Frank NJ. Adams stated that he
had known Mr.. Dyer for a number
of years, that he knew he was a
Democrat, that he had been Demo-
crat in Wyoming, that he was elected
to the legislature of that state in
Republican district and that he
was elected as a Democrat.
0. II. Wolverton of the City State
Bank said he knew that Mr. Dyer
was a Democrat
The evidence was so overwhelming
that all objections We're removed and
Mr. Dyer was nominated by rising
vote that was unanimous.
From the first ward, to succeed
Roy Shores, Don Cochran was named.
From the third ward to succeed j. L..
Wilson, Errett Dunlap was named.
From the second ward, to succeed
viii S. Fraley, William G. Doak was
named.
The politics of Mr.. Doak had also
been questioned in the speech Of Guy
II. Sigler and Mr.. Doak was called
upon for an expression. He related
an incident that happened many years
ago when w. b. Johnson was dis
tributing Republican patronage in
this country in an early day Some
of Mr.. Doak's friends had asked for
his appointment as postmaster at
Lebanon. Mr.. Doak was informed
that he could have the place, but
was told that his politics had some-
thing to do with it, that only Re-
publicans were being given the Off
ces. Mr.. Doak very promptly told
the Republicans that they could keep
their offices as far as he was con-
cerned. That was some twenty years
ago, when Mr. Doak first reached
his majority and he has been a con-
sistent Democrat since that time and
never voted any other ticket. Mr..
Doak's statement was greeted with
applause.
