 The fact is that anywhere from twenty to thirty million dollars in the final sale in that particular transaction was advertising good will. and it was treated as such by the shrewdest financiers in this country In appraising the value of that property and refinancing it for public consumption.
 I might 20 down through the whole range of American business Interests and cite many instances of the same general character.

SUIT INVOLVES MILLIONS
Russian Cooperative Societies, Pre- War Trading Link With England, Are Parties to Civil Action.

London. April 14.-Possession of the assets and capital of the great Russian cooperative societies. which before the revolution in that country served as the trading link between millions of Russian pleasants and merchants, will be the subject of liti- gation expected to be begun soon in this city by Leonid Krassin, head of tho Bolshevik trade delegation here. While the amount involved in Eng land approximates 100000 pounds questions of law are expected to arise. The progress of the suit will probably constitute the most important feature of the case. Should the Bolshevik government succeed in it's attempt to get control of the co-operative's cap ital in England there are indications that a similar move will be inaugur- ated in America. the cooperative so- cieties having offices in New York city

New York. April 14.-Denial that the open shop movement was in any sense a conspiracy of employers was made today by George w. Sisson, president of the American Pulp and Paper association in addressing the convention of that organization.
 II believe" he said, that the rapid spread and spontaneous support of the open shop movement is but a natural reaction to the extremes of conduct and assertion, local and national. of closed shop unionists.

 vies President Guaranty Trust
 Company of New York. - ERHAPS tho most interest O Ing development of the last
 ten years in advertising has
 been the developing of ad- vertisinx by financial institutions. IL was not SO long ago that the banks In this country, following the examples set by the English banks and continental banks generally. looked upon advertising as undlg- nifcd. #.-
 Th@re arc several institutions in New York today that spend close to half c million dollars a year in publicity of various sorts-all a de- velopment of the last Ave years, and it is significant that the institu- tons that have had that courage and vision are the institutions which are today leading the finan- ciaI world both In service rendered end profits made and In growth.
 Now. that is just one side of the picture which. perhaps, will give a better idea of the banking attitude towards publicity and advertising. and it ls rapidly developing and has been for the last few years. Hut an even moro significant develop ment has been the inclusion of ad- vertising good will as a bankable asset In the credit offices and the credit branches of every large financial institution of New York and in most Of the large centers. I could cite you many instances of the visible manifestation of that state of mind. For instance. last winter a certain company was bought by . little group of bankers and refnsnced. At that time there VI were visible assets of about i've nQlion dollars, iiberally appraised.

London, April 14.-Conservativ Scotland Yard is finding women of decided value on its detective force, especially in ferreting out the intrica- cies of certain sorts of crime. The talent of these feminine sleuths, it is said, is due largely because of their greater success at practicing decep- tion. And it has been found that they can keep secret.
 Many of, the women detectives cover assignments at social events where it is necessary for them to wear evening gown and jewels and to display khs social graces.
 Women detectives were employed first in London, but now their activi- ties have extended to the provinces.

labor understand, as we sec the pic
 ture, that all wealth is created not by labor alone, as the demagoxue 1 and the professional labor leader is !
 so keen to assure us. Labor by It.:
 self originally was nothing but thes
 caveman digging out living with
 his bare handg from the herbs and
 nuts and savage life around hlm.
 Until brains came and directed that
 activity labor produced no wealth :, And 70 the trinity of industry to-
 day which we ought to make labor
 understand and the whole indus
 trial machine understand is that l combination of labor and brnins
 and capital which has made this country what 1t is. That lesson
 ought to be driven home from every angle and through every channel that we command Never was it
 more important that those Of us who touch industry at the vital spots
 should drive home those lsssooo wherever we have the opportunity And there h another nsid which
 is vastly important to the American people today. That is the Aeld 06 foreign trade. The abysmal igno-
 rance of the American people about
 the importance of export trade to their business future fairly terrifies. me when I get out into the eountrys and get In touch with the averaSe; business man and worse than terri; fes me when I meet the average:
 man and the average farmer, and: yet the wheat-raiser Of the North. west and the cotton-grOwsr of the, South and tho cattle-raiSer Of the; far West should all be as sincerely: and deeply interested in the dsvei. opment of our foreign markets ast the industrial representatives of our business community, and VI l, have, got to drive that lesson home; to the American people. We have; got to make them sec that Amerfi can prosperity is absolutely depend: ]: ent upon the protection and sxpan-.. sion of our foreign trade and that. unless we can market our surplus; production, unless we can keep the . markets of the world open to our ] goods of every description. we arr not going to rave the prosperity at {; home to which we arc entitled. :
 Now, the banker is willing to do
 his part. He has studied that stu atfon, and he is willing to extend: his credit and to go the whole length of the road, but he must have behind him the support of tho business community and, even moro than that, the support of his Gov. ernment. because 1t is very certain that American goods will not cunr tinue to 70 around the world unless they arc followed by the protection of tho American nag. And 70 1t is of vast importance that there be . greater and better understanding of the importance o3 our relations with the rest of tho world. 1t Is very certain that the day has long since gone by when any nation or any individual can live unto itself alone. We must not only ''live and let live" a VI loved to say in the old days, but VI have got to hive and help live" In order
 intelligently to help ourselves. And
