[From the Banker and Financierl
The Exchange National Bank and Exchange
Trust company forces of Tulsa, Okla have
started an A. B. A of their own, the initials
in this case standing for what in plain English
is termed "Anti-Bellyachers Association. The
need for an organization of this sort has long
been evident and it is to be hoped that it will |
achieve national membership. The platform
of the association is as follows:
FIRST: Deliver us from the goof with the |
long face and the melancholy wall who dwell |
ing in the midst of plenty, shuts his eyes and
insists that america is enroute to the eternal |
bow vows.
SECOND: After comparing devastated
France, wrecked Belgium. torn Italy tired Eng
land, dsorganzed Germany, paralyzed Poland |
Russia, busted Japan and snake
ridden Mexico, we're proud and willing to
stand up before any bewhiskered boIsheyik in
the land and tell him we wouldn't swap these l
here AZ states, prohibition and ALL for the
whole European stew-pot.
THIRD: Give us a rope for the bird with
the perpetual bellyache who groans dismally OF
panics, profiteers, and high prices We believe Il
enough in ourselves and country to keen
our mouths closed and our hearts open-ready |,
to help instead Of hinder-to succeed instead Of
fail. -
FOURTH: We are for the willing worker
who sees things they are and is irving hard
10 improve them by his own SERVICE.
FIFTH: We realize that while everything
may not be all right today, nothing will ever be ,
'lght unless we individually help to right it !
and that nothing will be gained by belly
aching
SIXTH: We pledge ourselves aud our re- :
sources TO war against the belly acher-our !
treat national menace
SEVENTH: We believe in the associations ;
'attle cry: Let US ship every belly-acher-
very son-ot-a-gun who is not whole heartedIy q
With the United States of America Shin him r
God only knows where, but SHIP HIM. Ii
