in 1856 was glad to accept his coun-
sci on any subject of finance before
he had passed his fiftieth year.
II would be manifest insincerity
to assert that every youth car attain
the same high place in national af-
fairs. for undoubtedly Dawson had
natural talents for finance that many
young men do not possess. Others
have different talents of no less value
to the world and fitting thei: possess
ors for places no less useful and
honorable in the great world of af-
fairs. The one lesson OF every
mans success is that to integrity and
ability there must be added indus

energy and economy of time - il
one hopes to attain unusual heights

HOOKING FOR WORK"
Striking txsmpse Of Persistent In
dustry furnished by Career
of II. P. Dawson

When Henry P. Dawson, the mil
lionaire member of h banking
house of ]. P. Morgan 4 Co., who
died recently. came to the great city
Of New York, at the age of 10. he
announced that he was looking for
work"
The announcement met no salts
factory response in that center Of
American industry and finance, leav-
ing Dawson with a choice between
two courses Of action - he could
either get a soap box and go out ON
the street corner and denounce the
s%elfishness and venality of Wall
Street. or he could go on looking for
a job. He chose the latter. and found
work as a bank messenger in Bridge
port. Conn. From the time he first
went to New York. in 1886, Dawson
was looking for work until the day
Of his fatal illness. He was always
able to find 1t and he always did
the work SO well that he had more
and more offered to him to do.
The record of Mr.. Dawson affords
a lesson for all American youth.
Dawson was honest. but integrity
alone will not win success. He was
ambitious, but ambition alone will
not lead to achievement. He may
have had friends who could have
helped him get an unusually good
start, but II he had, he evidently
made no call upon their generosity.
He began at the bottom of the bank
ing business and by demonstrating
his ability and willingness and de-
pendability advanced from one posi-,
ton to another until the city which
refused his services in any capacity

SERVICE TO THE PUBLIC"
DOES NOT APPLY TO CAPITALISTS WHO CLOSl
THEIR PLANTS AND BRING SUFFERING
TO A COMMUNITY
1t Applies Only to Workers Who Would Strike to Secure
Fair Wages and Decent Living Conditions

| The n't-strike" wave has again
struck New York and powerful busi-
ness interests in that state are de-
manding this legislation.
As usual, power and greed is blind
to history and present-day experience.
England's 'can't-strike" record is for
gotten, the collapse of this system in
Australia is ignored and today's tur-
MOL and dissention in Colorado and
Kansas mean nothing to those who
would handcuff workers to their Jobs.
Rhetoric, sophistry and legalisms
fail to conceal the viciousness of this
proposal. It's one-sidedness is appar-
ent to any open-minded citizen. 1t not
only fails of its purpose but it en-
genders contempt for all law. Work
ers might be forced into obedience,
but they cannot be convinced that
they must labor against their will in
land dedicated to freedom.
This resentment bodies i'll for the
theory of equality before the law
Workers do not fail to note that
only they are denied freedom No
other element of our citizenship is
compelled to give service against
their will No other element is forced
to accept the edict of state tribunal
| in matters relating to wages, salary
or other remuneration.
No other element is questioned on
their cost of living or denied the right
to set their own living standard
1t may be said that profits of cor
porations can be limited by taxation,
SO wages may be fixed by law.
There is no analogy between profits
and wages, despite contrary reasoning
by superficial men.
The corporation may be taxed, but
no one suggests that the managers
of the corporation be interefered with.
Their living standard is never charted
with the mathematical exactness that
workers are subjected to. These
managers have a free hand in set
ting their own wages, and this is a
charge on the corporation before pro-
fits are considered.
No capitalist is ever cited to show
how many limousines, touring ears,
town houses, country estates, or trips
to Europe are necessary for him. He
is the sole judge. He alone sets his
income, charges it as an expense to
his business, the same as interest, de-
probation, etc. After these charges
are cared for, he figures his profit
To compare the regulation of cor
porations of the limiting of profits
with the regulation of human beings
struggling for wage that assures
decent living standards is to question
ones intellect.
Neither can defenders of cant
strike" legislation logically plead that
human rights shall be subverted to
"service to the public"
Service to the public" does not APP

STANDARD OIL
PROSPERS

New ork.-Being smashed" by
the United States supreme court has
not affected the prosperity of the
Standard oil trust. This corporation
is now operating in units, which re-
port a combined profit for the year
1920 of $405, ,916,545, after all taxes
have been paid and liberal deductions
made for depreciation, etc. The com
bined earnings in 1912 were Sl7S,27Z,-
DAT. This increase for all companies
of 1927 ,642, ,498 in 1920 represents a
gain of 130 per cent.
The Standard Oil Company Of New
Jersey shows the biggest profits
1t earned more than any other cor
poration. Standard oil or otherwise
in 1920. It's profits of $l64, ,46l ,4O9
in 1920 were but $14,00O,OOO less
than the entire Standard oil group lr
1912. They were $40 per cent greater
than the $35, ,l07, 1897 profits reported
by the New Jersey unit in 1912
Standard oil of California was the
second largest Garner of the group
in 1920. It's SAL, ,655,254, compared
with S7,106,156 in 1912, is an in

| ply to capitalists who close their
plants and bring suffering to a com
munity or to monopolists who seize
natural resources.
Service to the public" does not au-
| ply to banks that contract credit
boost interest rates, def1ate values and
cause general ruin
"Can't-strike" legislation revives
the ancient theory of master and
slave, baron and serf 1t puts work
ers separate and apart from all other
groups.
1t installs the machinery of the state
in the home of every wage Garner
while ethe men responsible for this
condition decry class legislation and
insist that government shall not in
terfere with the individual.
1t recalls the theory of ancient
Greece, which is secretly accepted by
those who lack the courage and abil-
ity to openly defend their superior
class" belief.
Twenty-Five centuries ago the
worlds greatest philosophers insisted
that by holding workers to their tasks
intellectual development and moral
perfection of the few were possible.
Although this theory was defended
by the greatest minds the world ever
knew, slavery was swept aside by the
democratizing and humanizing infu-
ences of the ages.
1t is now taken up by second-rate
political accidents, money changers,
traders and other idealless persons
who are interested in nothing but
profit and their own convenience.
They talk of service to the public
though their lives are contradiction
to this claim. Service" is no caiole
part of their lives. Their phrases to
fiatter, fool, cajole and exploit the
people are tiresome and lack original
| ity
Workers oppose 'can't-strike" laws,
and will not recognize them.
The proposal is only worthy of the
contempt of every genuine American.
