President Seeks Means
To Aid Smyrna Refugees

President Harding is giving SYM
pathetic consideration to appeals in
behalf Of men. women and childfen
driven out of Turkey, it was learned
yesterday at the White House.
Thus far, it may be stated au-
thoritatively, the President has been
unable to decide upon any method
of granting asylum to the refugees.
There is no way. it is pointed out,
in which the administration can
suspend the operation of the immi-
grafton act even should such action
be thought q desirable solution.

- AND
|RUSINESS|
~ n @. FORBES
More mergers are coming.

More mergers are coming.
Big ones are brewing in the
East, in the Middle West, on
the Pacific coast.
We will see industrial merg-
ers, banking mergers, mining
mergers, public utility mergers,
mergers embracing nearly all
lines of activity.
Incidentally, the indications
from Washington are that the
Armour-Morris merger will not
be forbidden.
In this column some little
time ago / predicted emphatic
ally that the next few years
would bring the swallowing up
of many small and medium
automobile companies by the
largest corporations. / gave
the reasons why this is, to my
mind, inevitable, citing among
other things that buyers do not
like to encounter difficulty in
receiving proper service when
they go travelling in cars made
by companies not having serv-
ice stations dotted all over the
country.
This analysis of the automo-
bile outlook has brought a num-
Der of protests. AS it is al
ways well to hear both sides,
1t may interest you to read one
or two extracts from letters re-
ceived from men not identified
with any of the gigantic auto
mobile companies.
Says one manufacturer:
81 see that you have been
hobnobhng with those big
automobile fellows in Detroit.
Don't let those fellows beguile
you into thinking that they are
the only people on the map
That's the way the big buggy
men used to talk some twenty
five years ago, and all sorts of
schemes were projected look
ing to the consolidation of the
carriage business and getting
it into a few hands. Some of
the accessory manufacturers
tried the same scheme. There
was once organized what was
known as the Standard Wheel
Company. This company
bought all of the carriage
wheel manufacturers, or nearly
all of them, and they boosted
prices 100 per cent. The re-
suit of this was the organiza-
ton of other wheel factories,
and the Standard busted all
to flinders.
General Motors and a few
others can't corner the auto
mobile business. 1t is too vast
for anything of the kind.
There will be a leveling down
process. There are too many
manufacturers, and some of
them will fall by the wayside.
Only the fittest will survive.
That's the way it is in every
business, that's the way of the
world. 1t has been that way
since things began and will
continue until the millennium.
And it ought to be that way"
