THAT AZ YEARS

II is sufficient answer to both
kinds of criticism to poin. cut that

that II is only the maximum period

RUBBER BUSINESS
IS GETTING BACK
President B. E. Frantz Of
Knox Tire Co. Writes Of
Future In Business

What are the prospects for future
business In the rubber industry?" is a
question that is being asked daily of
men who are Interested in this bust.
ness and in its future success.
President B. e. Frantz Of the Knox
Tire & Rubber Co. today issued the
following statement, seeking to an
swer thoroughly the above questions.
There isn't anything, in my judg-
ment surer than the perpetuation Of
the rubber industry, which has In a
large degree come to be so basic that
you might call this the rubber age.
"If. now and then, we see some evi.
dence of Stacking of business, what
of It? You cannot have a country
without having both valleys and hills.
"But there are still few idle pessi-
mists left who say that the rubber
business Is done for What about the
5000, 900 motors that have determined
what largely our thought In business
will be?
"What about the 100000 motors
required each year for replacement,
when we were filed to capacity and
could not reach over 100000? What
about the upkeep necessary to main
tain those already manufactured?
why the rubber business must go
on, or civilization could not go on as it
now Is. Nothing is more certain than
that. So the outlook is not gloomy.
The outlook is wonderfully auspicious.
I'VE are now entering upon a con-
structional era. Not only have we
entered upon a safe transportation
system, but we have esen new rela-
tiOnship between labor and capital.
These two cannot be enemies. They
are beginning to see the necessity Of
co-OperatiOn--Of better spirit toward
labor by capital, and better spirit to-.
ward capital by labor. We recognize
that each depends upon the other. and
We see now. Instead of decreasing
the product of labor and increasing
the cost, we are beginning to increase
the product and decrease the cost.
which Is the law of progress.
at is along these lines that the
rubber industry is again working up
to production, following the readjust-
ing period which we have just gone
through. 1t will be but few weeks
until the rubber industry is again up
to normal"

THE UNKNOWN oouoHsoY

There remains little doubt that the
United States will follow the example
OF France and Great Britain and
bring home for burial the body of one
of Americas unknown dead now re-
posing overseas. The public will ap
prove such action.
The American Legion urges this
tribute to the unknown soldiers who
gave their lives in France, and eGn'
eral Pershing, at his recent appear
ance before the house military com
mittee, seconded the proposal warm
y.
Many plans have been made in this
connection. The one most probable
of execution Is outlined in a bill sub
mitted by Representative Hamilton
Fish. which provides for the burial OF
the solder In the new amphitheatre in
Arlington cemetery.
General Fershing suggests that the
body of some soldier who fell in the
Argonne be brought home, as this
was the greatest major offensive In
which the American armies took part
Since 2.41s fallen Americans are list
ed as unknown, the lad who Is chosen
will represent a goodly company.
From the time OF It's lifting from,
the grave In France to the moment OF
It's burial In American soil. the body
OF this soldier will be surrounded with
every mark OF respect and treated
with full military honors, as II should
be. In honoring its unknown dead
the nation pays its tribute not only tc
this one boy or other comrades who
remain unidentified, 1t pays tribute
to every soldier who fought or gave
his life with little personal concern as
10 whether his grave should ever be
marked or not. 80 long as the cause ht

To establish a righteous brotherhood.
Let us as willingly sacrifice, to promote the
exalted cause,
Nor shrk part Of the responsibility
To aid in reconstruction work, of our international

In our country's honor, and pride Of nobility.

PAY UP WEEK. TO
OCCUR IN CITY
Advertising Club Makes In.
teresting Announcement
This Morning

D'ja ever hear of PAY Up Week?"
Well there is such an animal. or
course there's number Of different
kinds Of weeks. There's Dress. Up
Week, Homecoming Week, Fair
Week, weak sisters--and - and.
Well, there's lot of kinds Of weeks,
but this pay up week Is different
kind Of critter.
What's more Pay Up Week is going
to be with US before long. Secretary
Hoy l.. Russell Of the Chamber of
Commerce, who also happens to be
the secretary Of the Mount Vernon
Advertising Club, said today that the
directors Of the Ad Club have invited
"Mr. P. u. Week" to come to Mount
Vernon on Sunday, February 20. and
stay until the following Saturday ev.
ening. .sg~c y.
"The idea is Just this" Mr.. Russell
explains. PAY Up Week is intended
to make the plan of paying ones bills
popular. OF course every community
has dead beats'-persons who don't
pay their bills, but they are in the
minority. When we hear merchant
talking about poor collections we ma
tually think he is referring to dead
BEATS
Mine times out OF ten he isn't. He
is referring to his slow pay accounts
Slow pay accounts are in the majori-
ty. AS rule we don't figure right
on credits. Too many merchants as
well as too many credit customers
seem to think an account IL good
simply because the customer has a
lot of property and can pay the bill
although he may let 1t stand on the
tradesmen's books for six months be.
fore he does pay.
"As matter of fact the only good
account is the one that is paid. That's
why the Ad Club is planning to insti.
tute pay up week. Every person
owing bills in Mount Vernon is urged
to remember the date-February 20
to February 27r-and pay his outstand-
ing accounts then if not before"
Immediately following pay up week
the advertising club will install a
complete credit bureau similar to
others in existence in cities of conse-
quence throughout the United States.
This credit bureau is not a "black
list OF dead beats"-its an index to
the financial responsibility and paying
habits of all persons who buy on
credit.
According to Mr.. Russell the credit
bureau will enable members of the
advertising club to determine when to
extend credit and when to withhold
1t BY giving accurate data upon the
customers paying habits.
"The status Of mans credit so
far as these bureaus are concerned
has nothing whatever to do with the
amount of property the man owns"
Mr.. Russell said, "for the simple rea.
son that many man who doesn't
own nickle's worth of property is
better paying customer than men OF
wealth - they pay promptly. So a
mans credit rating should be judged
by his paying habits rather than by
the size of his bank account"
BY staging pay-up week immedi-
ately prior to installing the credit
bureau the Advertising Club is offer
ing to Mount Vernon people an op.
portunity to establish a good credit
rating and be thus listed in the bu.
reau.
