MAKING CAPITALISTS
OUT or WORKMEN
FeStuS J. Wade Says Anarchy
Disappears With the De-
veIopment of Thrift.

When the savings pass-book comes
into a mans life to stay the red flag
goes out What the country needs is
to bring about condition whereby
the man who works with his hands
shall take the same interest in his az
fairs as the capitalist does in his.
Probably the best way to do this
would he TO turn the workman into a
capitalist. And this is exactly what
he becomes when he saves his money
and builds UT a reserve fund. He re-
mains a capitalist as long as he holds
on to that money. The satisfaction
Of seeing his money reserve mount
up will discourage the waster to take
a layo6 now and then. 1t will encour-
age him to work a full six,day week
and thereby increase the labor hours
applied to production.
The American people can solve any
problem they set themselves 10 We
provided for a sound currency when
the greenbackers and inflationists
were routed and the gold basis estab-
lished. The Federal Reserve Bank
was established and solved a problem
for which most people thought there
was no solution. A number OF years
ago, when there was q crisis or when
a bank failed, We all used to shut up
our vaults tight and let nothing get
out. Instead Of lettering conditions
We made them worse. Now II failures
occur few people, except those direct.
ly interested, are disturbed.
Perhaps the most important problem
Of sill right now is TO do away with
labor waste. 1t never can be done by
preaching, by agitatian or by force Il
can be done by selling the workman
on the idea of becoming a capitalist
This car be brought about by the right
kind Of bank advertising. Who Is
there to say that an advertising dol
lar bringing about this result would
not be constructive dollar ?-Fsstus

Washington
Inside Out
A Weekly Panorama Of Events in
the National Capital
By Peter keegan

ONE OF THE big issues in the
1924 Presidential campaign will be
Muscle Shoals, which just now is
little more than a name to a
majority of the voters. The fight
will center about the disposition Of
the power project, owned by the
Government at Muscle Shoals, Ala,
and the effort of Henry Ford TO
lease the property for the manu-
facture of fertilizer viii be discussed
and argued at great length. After
Congress failed to approve the sale
of the property to Ford, Secretary of
War, Weeks sold the biggest power
plant at Muscle Shoals to the
Alabama Power Company, bitter
rival of the Ford interests. Ford's
friends say he was squeezed out to
keep him from being a formidable
candidate for President.
THE ANNOUNCEMENT in this
column that Woodrow Wilson would
like to take the stump in the forth
coming campaign has been followed
by the statement in authoritative
circles that Mr.. Wilson's name
might well be included among the
Democratic Party's receptive
candidates" for the Presidency. 1t
is the general opinion, however, that
the former President would dis
courage any organized effort to
make him the Democratic standard
bearer again.
THUS FAR THE Democrats only
have one announced candidate, so
there is no internal warfare in the
party, except over policies. The
sole candidate to date is Senator
Oscar w. Underwood of Alabama,
and he is feeling his way carefully,
being hesitant to commit himself on
matters of policy until a clearer
perspective can be obtained of next
years outlook That former
Secretary of the Treasury, William
G. McAdoo will also be a candidate
there is no doubt, but McAdoo is
campaigning for the present with
out blare of trumpets or beat of
drums.
MAJOR ROY A. HAYNES, the
Federal Prohibition Commissioner,
and police officials, of the District
of Columbia, are engaging in a
controversy over the enforcement Of
the Volstead Act in Washington.
The District Commissioners, who are
supreme in municipal affairs, served
notice on Haynes that they will
withdraw the metropolitan police
from prohibition enforcement duty
unless the federal government takes
steps to improve the personnel of
tho enforcement officers on duty in
the capital, 1t is a situation that
is proving embarrassing to both
sides and may require adjudication
by the President, who is the real
boss after all.
ABOUT HALF OF the members
of the Senate have gone to Europe
this summer to get first-hand in
formation on economic and political
conditions. The first guess would
be that each would come back with
a new plan for solving all the pro.

the case. Nearly all of the re

tory, of the United States Forest

specimens of twenty-eight common
species of wood show that good kiln.
drying and good air.drying have the
same effect upon the strength IL
wood.
The belief that liln-drying pro.
duces stronger wood than air.dryinR
Is usually the result Of failure 10 con.
slider differences In moisture content.
The moisture content Of, wood on
leaving the kiln IL generally from
to per cent lower than that OF
thoroughly air.dried stock. Since
wood rapidly increases in strength
with loss Of moisture, higher strength
values may be obtained from kiln
dried than from air-dried wood. Such
a difference in strength has no sig
nificance. since in use piece Of
wood will come to practically the
same moisture condition whether It
is Kindred or Just left to dry In
the open air.
It must be emphasized that the
appearance Of dried wood is not a
reliable criterion Of the effect the
drying process has had upon its
strength. The strength properties
may be seriously injured without
visible damage to the wood. Also.
it has been found that the same
kiIn-drying process can not be APP
piled with equal success to all
species. To insure uninJured kiln

II u SlSnlIlCAuG tu3I the Two
prize-winning papers presented q.
the annual convention Of Building
Owners and Managers In Atlantic
City two months ago pointed out
the Importance Of newspapers al
mediums Of advertising for build
ings. The association In question
represents approximately five bill
lion dollars worth Of property in
the principal cities Of the country,
and to stimulate interest among
its fifteen hundred members two
contests were held prior to the con-
vention, In one Of which the writer
was at liberty to choose his own
subject, while In the other "A
Rental Campaign" was selected
for the topic.
In the former contest Mrs. Freda
i Tilden, advertising manager for
the Metropolitan Building Com
pany Of Seattle. Wash. won the
first prize; the other trophy went
to Andrew Steers Of the same or.
gani5ation. Extracts from their
respective essays appear elsewhere

PRAISE ADS IN
TWO PRIZE
ESSAYS
Winners Of National Building
Owners Association Con-
test Boost Newspapers.

1.-THE complexities of modern
merchandising and the increased
pressure Of competition make adj
vertising necessary" according to
Freda A. -Tilden in her prize
winning paper read before the Ma.
tional Association of Building
Owners at their recent convention
in Atlantic City. The essay con-
tinued. in part: 1T is true that
some things are so good that the
public invests in them without being
urged to do so, but every great
business In the United States today
has been built upon a foundation
of successful advertising. OF late
years there has been a consistent
advertising Of government bonds.
Advertising IL essential for a
building company, not SO much to
produce direct rentals as to generate
good will; to be source of educe.-
ton and instruction to the public.
to keep interest alive, and to sup
plement general publicity. Adver-
Using paves the way for the rental
department, and In many angles
must touch those Of the rental de-
partment in aim and purpose. Ad-
vertising Is most needed where bus.
mess is growing, expanding and
pushing into new channels OF
service.
"A building company, whose bust.
ness is to rent office space, has
something to sell to the public az
surely as a department store. But
the type of goods Is markedly dill.
ferent, and requires entirely DIFF.
ferent methods to accomplish re.
suits. Building property advertis'
ing stands practically in class by
itself. It II not similar to real es.
tate, II has q different method to
pursue than q bank to sell its
goods. and II has no similarity to
a commodity such as automobiles
or pianos.
"The type OF advertising, which

bly, comes nearer the building prop
erty type than any other. Rightly
planned, correctly written, with an
interest and an appeal, advertising

paper advertising, a background
has been formed on which a cam.

In his prize-winning paper on
Outline for Rental Campaign"
read before the same society, An.
drew Steers, Of Seattle. said In
part: AT least six months before
the scheduled date of completion,
an advertising and publicity cam.
paign should be devised. No one
avenue of advertising can be ex.
pected, to accomplish complete re.
! suits and 1t is more difficult TO

Using than to any other channel.

New Drive In Wilds

A large section of Rock Creek
Park which has been almost un-
known to the public, due to the
absence of roads, will soon be
within easy reach of the motorist.
"A road is under construction
which will give a beautiful
entrance from Sixteenth street,
practically opposite the entrance
to Walter Reed Hospital. The
new road will lead on gentle
grades down the slopes Of the
park and across Rock creek, join

mile north of Mill House ford.

started therein about three months
before the scheduled date of COM
pletion. They should appear once
week for about two months, then
twice week for about three months
and taper down again for two
months, at which time this phase
of the advertising campaign should
be revised and decision made as
to continuance in line with the
occupancy OF the building and the
results obtained. The form such
advertising should take depends a
great deal upon customs peculiar to
the city and the class Of tenants
that are to be sought. The copy
should follow conservative and dig
nified lines and carry ideas that
are In keeping with the building
and its location. Good impressions
are made by featuring some partic.
ular thing about the building in
each advertisement. In all adver.
tisements, however, the location Of
the rental office should be stated
and an invitation extended to study
the plans and inspect the building
even while construction Is in prog
reas."

DR.. Riggs is of the opinion that
the structure solves the home prob

tested by the attention which the
house has attracted. So many have
asked permission to inspect the
house that DR.. Riggs has consented
that Mr.. Rowley tell the public
about the house, Withholding not a
