WHAT IS succEssf

My, experience has been that the
greatest difficulty with boys who en-
ter a business house is not that they
think wrongly. but that they do not
think at ALL Many are willing to put
In one day Of hard work after another
in the conscientious performance of
their duties, but they seem to believe
their thinking should be done by the
men higher up, writes Irving I. Bush
In Forbes Magazine. Many of these
young men are perfectly capable Of
thinking II they will only try. There
is no doubt that II any Of us can be
induced TO approach a task with the
belief that we are capable Of thinking
about 1t. and that II we keep on think
ing about 1t we shall probably develop
something that will make us do our
work better, we shall, In all probable
ity, actually do the work better. After
all, doing job little better than the
other fellow is all there Is to success.

VERSAILLES TREATYLS
DEAD, HARDING SAYS

WASHINGTON, April 8 Omitted
Press).-The doom of the treaty Of
versailles 50 far as the United States
IS concerned, was pronounced def
nitely by President Harding today.
In unmistakable words the Presi-
dent, speaking to newspaper men,
made II clear that he was convinced
that there is no practical way in
which the United States can consider
ratifying the Treaty OF Versailles.
Harding denied, however, that he
has approved immediate action on
the Knox peace resolution.
There is no need according TO
Harding's views for precipitate ac-
tion in regard to the Knox resolu-
tion. He indicated, however, that
he saw no particular reason for a
marked reversal OF the position he
took when he voted for the Knox
resolution in the Senate and when
he endorsed it in his speech of ac-
ceptance during the campaign.
At the outset OF his interview with
the newspaperme today, Harding
denied reports that he had approved
