FIFTY-FIFTY MUST
Be U. S. PRINCIPLE
B. r. Inman Says National
Prosperity Depends on Cold
en- Rule Application.

CONNERSVIILE, Ind, Oct. e.
A "fifty-fifty" policy must FREEDOM
mate in all our business and social
relations to speed up the trend back
10 normally. declared B. r. Inman
of Indianapolis. manager of the
state chamber of commerce, in an
address to the Kiwanis club here
Tuesday.
I'VE have reached a point in our
busine Ss rehabilitation, where the
human touch must have more con-
sideration," said Mr.. Inman "A
fifty-fifty policy must predominant
in all our business and social rela-
tionships - fifty-fifty between en-
ployer and employe; fifty-ffty be-
tween capital and labor; fifty-fifty
between both these elements and the
general public and fifty-ffty be-
tween all groups, all classes, all
trades. all organizations, all profess
sions and all vocauons. The spirit
of fifty-flfty is nothing more nor
less than the practical operati ton of
the Golden rule.
Continued readjustment in both
prices and wages is imperative. Pro-
duction costs must be lowered
transportation costs must be de-
creased. In order to accomplish
this. further wage reductions are
necessary. These problems must be
approached on a ffty-hfty basis
in a spirit OF absolute justice to all
factors concerned. I believe that a
nation wide policy Of this kind in
practical operation will do more
than anything else 10 solve our bust
ness and social problems and hasten
the return 10 normally.
I'VE have had too much group
thinking and too much class con-
seriousness" concluded Mr.. Inman.
This must give way 10 co-ordina-
ton aud co-operauon; selfishness
must give way 10 altruism."
