The Journal is in receipt of letter from prom
inent citizen of outlying community in which he
says: "The people Of this community have learned.
as other communities rapidly learning, that you
are real friend of the people," In this comment
our correspondent has paid the highest possible
compliment and given us the greatest conceivable
incentive to carry on"
The Journal is edited with but purpose con-
stantly in mind--to serve the people. No other
motive is allowed to actuate it. Sometimes when
we are assailed strike back in self-defense. We
must survive in order to be able to serve. To allow
ourselves to be destroyed weakened would leave
US helpless help the public. SO such fight be-
comes. in reality, fight for the people.
Sometimes doubtless wrong. We beg no
claim to infallibiy. We try to be wrong sell
dom as possible. Our mistakes of the head and
not of the heart, We have had purpose but to
serve We have done the best could in the cir
cumstances.
For us to be strong enough to help you we in
turn must have your help. We need more readers
to broaden influence and to more widely dis
tribute the overhead of producing paper.
We need more advertisers The only way we can
get them is for the advertising already in the jour
nal to be more profitable. The way to make it
more profitable is for readers to trade more
with advertisers So you can help us help you
Our subscription drive is The prizes used in
this drive costing fixed amount, which Is
large. Whether the cost of these is to be an ab-
normal per cent of the receipts depends upon how
much money is taken in from subscribers-old and
new. SO by helping make drive a huge success
you can help us be strong to serve you.
The Journal has source of income except THAI
which it's counter in the course of legit-
mate business. We depend entirely on the general
public for our revenues. The poor man is as val
liable to us as the rich Each reads but one paper
There are few rich men, but there thousands in
modest circumstances The latter our reliance
Numbers count. both in subscriptions and patron
age of our advertisers.
Our passion is the common good We want all
the rich friends we have. If have them
without obligation. But some rich men will not
be our friends because they not We
are sorry, but not pentent.
The common people neither expect ask
special favors. They merely want square deal for
everyone. For that the Journal is making daily
fight. We want the friendship and co-operation
of average folks. These constitute nnety-nine and
nine tenths Of the people With their support the
Journal will be growing power for good

Morning Journal.
Dear Editor: 1 have read with
much interest the letter of 7. B..
Crabb in the Journal of November
IA, and / believe he is right in
nearly everything he mentions, eX-
cept where he refers to committees
not functioning, have noticed that
committees in Albuquerque do
function, and / refer to one es-
pecially, that did a good piece of
work. Last summer committee
of one was appointed to go to Salt
Lake in the interest of the Park to
Park highway, and thanks to ID. X.
B. Sellers, who was that committee
W. are on the Park to Park high
way. / could mention number of
committees that have functioned
and will continue to function it
they are given work TO do The
spirit of Albuquerque is not dead,
never was dead and never will he
dead. Our c, of C. has functioned
a great deal more than people give
them credit for and will continue to
function in the future.

gagged the services of the America
City bureau. / know the plan fair
ly we'll; have seen it worked in
other cities of the state and | am
sure 1t would have been a great
thing for the c. of c.. but the board
decided to get along without them.
We can IL everyone takes his share
of responsibility and works.
The future of Albuquerque lies
in the hands of the public spirited
citizens, and that future is to be

years IL we so desire, but we must

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE

Chicago, Nov. 15.-Reported
sales of new Argentine wheat at sc
bushel under the cost of United
States wheat had a depressing in
fluence today on wheat. Prices
closed unsettled. 1 nc to 2kc net
lower, with December S1.O4 tc
s1.041A and May $1.07 u to $l.O7 a
Corn finished unchanged to "
higher. oats down - to NC and
provisions varying from 2hc de-
cline to soc advance.
From the start wheat showed
leaning on the bear side. with at
tention of traders focusing largely
on Argentina and Australia owing
to the near approach of the har-
vest there.
Crop conditions in both countries
were reported as favorable and this
circumstance appeared at leas'
temporarily to outweigh the serious
complaints of drought in the south
west. Scantiness of domestic re-
ceipts failed also to attract much
notice. Under such circumstances
announcement tn at Argentine
wheat for January-February ship
ment had sold in Europe far cheap
err than United States wheat proved
decidedly effective against thu
bulls. Covering by shorts here led
to something Of late rally.
Brisk export call for corn, with
sales totaling 100000 for today
and yesterday. helped to give firm
ness to corn. Gossip was current
about government plans for assist
ance in financing the carrying OF
corn.
Oats, though, reflected the weak
ness of wheat.
Provisions fluctuated In line with

the great number of people living it is most
decided gain.
If object is to keep the world very much
as it always has been, if the past rather than the
future is chief consideration, then OF course
there is reason in this writer's melancholy message
But if concern is the future, then the more We
travel the BETTER then everything that makes posi-
bic easy means of social intercourse between peoples
is to our advantage. From a poetic point of view
of love for the past Mr.. Harrison is right and in
great measure he may still indulge in that kind OF
travel if he wishes. But from the point of view OF
social progress there can be no doubt that the eX-
press train has it on the stage coach

AS THE PEOPLE VIEW 1T

, THEY, but in terms of WE. When
a city thinks in terms of THEY
that city is divided, but when they
think in terms of WE that 'ity is
united.
Mr.. Crabb points out that climate
is the only thing on which to build.
| This, to my mind, is our biggest as
set, but when the healthseeker
comes he must have more than
climate. He has his hours for re-
creation; our shows must be clean
and well ventilated; our city m ST
! be clean. and he must feel that
when he buys merchandise he is
not being overcharged; he must
| feel at home in every way so lie
can bring himself to believe he is
really and truly a healthseeker and
not HEALTH SUCKER.
Let us all make the healthseeker
feel that he is glad he is here and
| let him know we are interested III
him aside from the dollars he
brings, for they are to be citiz Ems
of our great southwest, and If we
make it pleasant for them tner will
remain with us and make theil
/ home here and will never think of
going back when they are well.
There is no doubt in my mind
about the future of Albuquerque, Il
is one of the best known towns
west of Kansas City and destined
to be the greatest city in the south
west if our citizens so will it.
To the healthseeker, WE WELL
iCOME YOU AND WE WANT YOU;
to the tourist, we have more to
show you in New Mexico than you
can see elsewhere; to the capitalist,
we need you and we will cooperate
in every way and let us say to our
selves and to the c. of c., we are
going to do our share in making
Albuquerque what it should be.

RIPPING RHYMES
BY WAIT MASON.

framed up some dizzy tales, Of
living beings dwelling there, we
thought their tales were bunk: no
orators were yelling there, no
statesmen peddled bunk. We gave
no time to pickering, our plat
form was so strong; but now Pro-
lessor Pickering has shown us
where we're wrong. He's found a
lot of greenery, strange plants
that grow and thrive; amid that
CHASTITY scenery some COW feed is
alive; and-is it merely vanity
If such green things appear, there's
sure to be humanity on hand, to
profiteer. The learned Professor
Pickering to our belief says,
"Scat!" So play him on your
Chickering and paste him in your

THE MOON.

The learned Professor Pickering
finds life upon the moon; there
men, perhaps, are dickering, and
chasing the doubloon. We've al
ways thought it tenantless, and
cold and gray and dead, without
baseball. and penantless, with
none to paint it red. But now Pro-
lessor Pickering sees life signs cv-
erywhere, and maybe men are
liquoring in soft drink joints up
there; and maybe skates political
as gifted statesmen pose, and
kickers, dourly critical, denounce
the movie shows. We've viewed
the moon through telescopes, its
craters and it's wales; though IA

THE MARKETS
tBy The Associated Press,

New York. Nov 15.-Stock mar
ket prices reflected fresh unsettle-
| ment today, although the disturb
ances of yesterday which were
attributed to the disarmament pro-
posals, seemed to exert less influ-
ence.
Shares of companies likely tc
suffer reduction of operation from
a naval holiday made partial re-
coveries. Equipments strengthen
ed in spots on prospects of early
announcement of the Pullman
Haskell-Barker merger and rumors
| that large contracts are soon to be
| awarded.
Foreign oils were under attack,
beginning with the European group
and extending to MeXicans, the lat
ter being affected by rumors that
| Mexico intends to add a heavy i'm
post to it's present export tax.
Rails made a better showing
than any other group, notwith-
standing the unrest manifested in
labor circles as a result of the pro-
posed wage cut. More than half
score of high grade issues made
gross gains of one to four points,
coalers and transcontinentals lead
| ing. These were partly impaired
in the late selling pressure. Sales,
| 100000 shares.
Release of large sums in connec-
ton with the November Is Liberty
bond interest payments created un-
usually easy money conditions. Cal,
loan rates dropped from to per
cent on the exchange at midday
and the minimum figure was shad-
ed on prime collateral in private
transactions.
Foreign exchange was featured
mainly by the further rise of ster-
ling to its highest level in several
months. The rate reacted later on
offerings of food and cotton bills
and most continental remittances
eased moderately.
Strong investment conditions
were denoted by the enormous over
subscription to the $4,000, 900 New
York 6 per cent bonds and the
s10,000,000 Rio Grande do Sui is
sue. The telephone bonds sold at
premium over the public offering
price during the day. Total sales
of bonds, par value, $17,275,O00.

Resolutions of COOPERATION

WHEREAS Labor's strongest asset is its Purchasing Power, combined with a general application of Cooperative Prin- ciples and
 WHEREAS this is the most important movement ever promoted in our city by Labor to officially advance the spirit of reciprocity and
 WHEREAS the firms here represented are on record as having manifested their desire for cooperation with the working classes:
 THEREFORE, although it is not in- ferred that this list covers all firms "fair' to Labor, the concerns herein represented have shown their desire to cooperate with our membership and it is agreed that we Principle and give them our hearty patron age and support in accordance with the established policy of our organization.
The Connecticut labor news., 1921-12-23

fore improvement can be expected "The cultivation of friendly relations between all those concerned in indus try and the maintenance of such 3 system as will enable every man, from the highest to the lowest, to know what he is responsible for, to whom he is responsible and that he person ally will be credited and rewarded in proportion to service rendered." is the formula prescribed by Miller for the "full-steam- ahead" industry of the future.
 "The penalty incentives in the form fthe lash or other gross physical punishments were more common in slave times than they are now," he said, but the penalty incentive still persists and there are still too many in our industries who recognize no other kind not knowing that 1t is still true "that he who owns a slave is himself in chains Incentives of the penalty kind make people afraid not tO uO lHe lIlIuSS dIcy are IOlQ TO QO. Incentives fthe reward class tend to make people want to do the things that are expected of them The two classes differ widely, but they differ no more than the results that are ob- tained by them"
 Regard Workers as Animals.
 Walter N Polakov, a consulting en- gineer of New York, charged that in dustrial losses are due to the "appli- cation of animal standards to human creative activities in industry" The monotonous pursuits, the drab exis- tence, the imaginative lives of the rank and file of labor, he said, make 1t impossible to tap creative resources to the full extent
 Modern industry, Polakov de- clared, "is founded around the mis- taken idea that the workman is an animal and his work commodity"
 Various engineers discussed the railroad situation from the angle of economy and pointed out that it is possible, by modern methods, to cut the transportation fuel bill 45 per cent, efecting an annual money saw ing of $24o,oooooo.
