SAYS NATION NEEDS THE sTIM-
ULUS OF COMPETITION.

sTt must be understood that toll
uione makes for accomplishment and
advancement, and righteous possess
sion is the reward OF toll, and It's
incentive. There is no progress
except in the stimulus OF competition.

the world war wrought the destr1ic-
tlon of healthful competition, left
our storehouses empty. and there Is
a minimum production when our
need Is maximum. MaNimums, not
Ininimums, Is the call OF America.

tion, because patriotic production Is
no less defense OF our best civili-
zation than that OF armed force.
Profiteerng Is a crime of commission.
interpretation Is a crime of omis-
sion. We must work our most and
best, else the destructive reaction
Will come.
