Retailers Still Uncertain
Fear Present Good Buying May
Act as Boomerang

Retailers are still in the dark con-
corning the possibilities of spring trade
Present movement of goods into the
hands of consumers is not a criterion
of what may be expected in another two
months, and some of the low "close-
out" prices now being quoted on some
commodities by the merchants, is ex-
pected to act as a boomerang, when
higher prices, based on actual cost of
new merchandise are placed in effect
1t is significant that few retailers are
going beyond March deliveries in order
ing goods now. There is general feel
in among the merchants that present
prices will hold for at least sixty days,
but the possibilities beyond that date

H0au Credit Is Used

1t becomes the dispenser to Austria
OF the wheat, coal, cotton, agricultural
and manufacturing machinery and rail
road equipment of the United States.
But it uses this imported capital only
as pitcher of water to start the dry
pump OF Austrian credit capital. 1t
aims to present the first historic ex-
ample OF pure capitalism-a scientific
regime for the increase and conserva-
ton of capital. Thus it aims to offer
also the first instance of a perfect
investment security-every dollar from
America being lien upon the whole
system, and being assured, beyond per
adventure, of continuance as a live and
propagatng asset.
All this is absolutely simple. 1t fol-
lows inevitably from a true conception
of the nature of a modern business
system, to wit: A classification of pro
ductive ability, operating under the
guidance of an unspecialized organ of
technical intelligence; and, therefore
capable of elastic adaptation to any
necessary specialization. A true bust
ness system is a system organized to
produce the necessaries of life or to
produce under any and all circum-
stances goods exchangeable "for the
necessaries of life in the markets of
the world. There is no good reason
why prosperity should not be stabilized
at high living standard in any COM
munlty that is capable of a general
technic culture.
If Austria has brains enough and
natural resources enough to earn her
living there is nothing under heaven
that prevents her doing it cxcept lack
Of business organization. America can
1urnlsh the organizers. The mechan-
ism OF credit supplies a perfect agency
Tor the enforcement of the intrinsic
laws OF production--even against the
opposition of reluctant minorities or
maJorltles. The most intimate and
irresistible kind Of government that
the world has ever known is govern
ment by accredited organs of informal
ton and tinance-a government that
forces all producers to strive for ST.
perlor service-ability in continual
competition for the use of credit
capital.
This kind of government can draw
to IT'S support everybody that can think
straight or do anything we'll. 1t can
eliminate from the places of high de-
clslon all the short weights and charla-
tans. 1T can quadruple the productive
power OF any community in year, and
my" ~ OH W nlSner multlpleS.
r. austria does not know these things.
1t is principally our fault that she does
not know them. For America is the
historic motherland of great business
we We're specially lowered with the
spirit of cnterprise-to resist the drift
OF fate and accident.
Our momentary apostasy from this
calling is deplorable. For the moment
we listen to those who imagine that
bad business is an act Of God. There
IS among us helpless fatalism of
finance. 1t is not Intellectually re-
spectacle.

immigration Selection

The best possible way to restrict and
select our immigrants would be direct
reversal OF our contract labor laws.
If, instead of excluding an immigrant who
had contract for a job, we excluded
all others and admitted only those who
had contract, signed by an accredited
employer, guaranteeing him. say, SIS a
day, or whatever satisfactory minimum
might be agreed on. for at least year.
under this plan we should be able to get
all the immigrants we really need That
is to say, il we do not need man badly

Train Business Talent

Another way of encouraging business
talent is to train it. The various
schools Of business administration will
do more for the laboring classes of
America than al the political agitation
combined. These schools will tend to
increase the amount of business talent
and the number of people who can sue
coed in managing a business SO as to
get enough out Of it to pay the wages
of labor sud have u1f'Nio i0f
is only by Increasing the number of
such people that business can possi-.y
expand and the demand for labor in
crease.
However. this expansion of industry
may be of benefit to labor in two widely
different ways. In the first place, it
may leave our native laborers in about
the same condition, but give employment
to a few millions of immigrant laborers.
Labor as whole will gain by this, even
though our native laborers do not gain
anything. In other words, the benefit
OF this expansion of our industries viii
go wholly to immigrant laborers who
can come in such numbers as to supply
compl stely the Increasing demand. On
the other hand, this expansion of INDUS
try and increase in the demand for
labor may benefit American laborers, if
we very carefully restrict and select our
immigrants. By increasing the number
Of men who ars> potential employers of
labor and restricting the number of
manual laborers available to supply that
demand, the ordinary economic forces
will do the rest
Whenever and wherever labor Of any
kind is scarce and hard to find, it gets
what it wants-whether it be higher
wages, better factory conditions, voice
in management, or whatever it be.
When labor is abundant and easy to
find, it takes what it can get There
is no real exception to this rule.

DEPUTY SHERIFF
SHOT TO DEATH
Blue Slain By Ex-Soldier at Fayette'
vile, Another Officer Wounded
But Will Recover.

Fayetteville, N. c., Jan. 29-Dep-
uty Sheriff N. N. Blue was shot and
killed by Thomas R. Clayton of New
York, formerly a soldier at Camp
Bragg; Clayton himself was perhaps
fatally wounded by Blue, and Depu-
ty w. o. Patrick was shot through
the thigh here early this afternoon
when the officers attempted to arrest
the ex-soldier on a warrant sworn
out by A. A. Lindsey, into whose
house Clayton is said to have forced
himself at the point of pistol last
night.
Sheriff McGeachy reported the
tragedy to Governor Morrison, who
tonight promised any assistance in
his power, but, in spite of the re-
ported intensity of feeling in Fay
etteville over the affair, refrained
from calling out troops on the assur-
ance of the sheriff that nothing
would happen during the night.
The tragedy arose from Clayton's
attentions to Lindsey's daughter, it is
said. The warrant charging assault
with a deadly weapon was sworn out
this morning by Lindsey. who point
ed out the former soldier to officers
just as Clayton was leaving his
daughter at street corner.
While Deputy Blue was reading the
warrant, Clayton drew an automatic
pistol from his coat pocket and
started shooting. Blue fell, shot twice
through the lung after the man had
been wounded himself.
All three men were carried to a
hospital nearby where Blue died this
afternion at 2:30 o'clock. Clayton is
seriously wounded and it is thought
he may die.

DAIRY COWS SHOULD
FRESHEN IN THE FALL

Clemson College, Jan. z5.-Dairy
cows should be bred to freshen in
the fall, says the dairy division OF
Clemson College. Each year more
and more farmers are realizing just
how important this practice is.
There are several good sound rea-
sons supporting it.
1. Fall4freshening fits naturally
into all practical systems of farm
rotations because there is more
than in summer. Labor is cheaper in
winter and more easily obtained. 1t
is therefore a good idea to give the
COWS their dry period when the sum-
mer farm work is pressing.
2. 1t has been found that the fall
fresh cow will yield about fifteen to
twenty percent more milk in the
year than the spring-fresh COW; and
there is a greater demand for dairy
products during the season in which
the fall-fresh cow produces the bulk
of the milk.
8. The fall calf has a distinct ad,
vantage over the spring calf. During
the early part of the calf's life it
lives almost entirely upon milk. AS
it natures it consumes more feed,
especially grain. BY spring it if
time for the fall calf to be weaned
and it can be put on grass, which is
then ready for it. On the other hand
the spring calf is ready to be put on
pasture during the winter months
when there is no pasture. So, thu
fall calf is practically as well
grown one year old as the spring
calf at ye ar and half.
4. The amount and value Of ma
nure produced depends largely upor
the kind and amount Of feed con
sumed. Winter dairying serves tc
produce more manure at time OF
the year when it can be saved.
The best time to have cows fresh
en- is between Sept IS and Dec Is
Perhaps the best way to put your
: breeding operations on the fall basis
is to Hback-up" this is, have COWS
bred as soon after freshening as
possible and continue this practice
until the calving is at the desired
time. Cows bred in February and
March will calve in November and
December, and this will be the first
big step towards putting the hero on
the fall basis.
