WITH VICTORY IN SIGHT

With only one more stronghold to cap ture, the supporters of the Ford offer for Muscle Shoals have reason to congratulate themselves on the progress already made. In spite of subtle and open opposition of the most bitter sort, the offer has moved slowly but steadily towards its inevitable acceptance. All the forces of the opposition, however, may be expected 10 mass themselves ill the senate for inc final attack. With victory in sight. the Ford adherentS, that is to say, those who believe tEc Ford offer potential of wider public benefit than any other, need to re- double their efforts. There must be no re- taxation until the measure accepting tue offer has passed tbe upper house. There must be permitted nos alteration and no amend ment in any vital particular, for then the fight would have to he waged ali over again. The issue IS still between a proposition to utilize the Muscle Shoals project for in dustrial development on the one hand, and for the exploitation of a monOpOliStc program of wide power distribution on the other. On the one hand, is proposal to manufacture fertilizer preserve the national source of war explosives and employ the excess current in furthering industrial enterprises in the con tiguous area. On the other hand. is q pro- gram of power monopoly and distribution for the primary benefit of n trust rather than for the primary benefit of the public which has so many millions invested in the Muscle Shoals area. \ program of power distribution is legitimate program; but when it comes into conflict with another program of greater public benefit, then it iS not in that ease legitimate, for the private consideration must always give precedence to the major public consideration.
 In the senate, the fight will be somewhat hree-cOrnered. with the Ford adherents, the power trust advocates and the proponents of government operation acting at cross pur- poses. Senator Norris is the leader of the group favoring government operation and is the chairman of the committee on agriculture before which the measure will come. Sc cretly he may actually lean to the power trust. Opposed to him on that committee

 fast
 Then rise from off the higher hills and draw Upon the canvas of a nearer heaven Where men may ever gaze-the vision that
 he saw Lift him, oh hand, all gently to the heights. Where suns may bathe his bruise against
 the hour When, whole again, the purpose that was
 his.
 Shall. too. be lifted and--in the hearts of
 Inen-shall flower. Hated--ah yes but by the graves raw edge. Such things as little hatreds stumble
 fall When. with the majesty of unbound soul, mighty spirit answers to Il mightier
 call. Hated-ah, yes. but what are little hates But little deaths that wander on and on. Bereft of truth--unsingiug as they go To end at last all-powerless against the
 dawn. Reach down. oh steady hand. and bear him on To where the little hates are snared in
 dawn But if thou find his mantle on the hills. Leave it behind, oh hand, for us-then lift

|. NEW DEMOCRATIC MAGAZINE

Looking over the initial issue of the Ma tional Democratic Magazine, the official or gan of the National Democratic Club of New York City, and contemplating the "ForewOrd" by it's president, who sets forth that the pub lication is intended to be a reflex of the principles, purposes and activities of the Democratic party, Democrat who clings to the traditional high ideals and sound policies of Democracy would feel more interest in the publication if it did not start out with con- spicuous exploitation of the political methods and activities of such figures in the party as Charles F. Murphy of Tammany Hall.
 There are many loyal and active adherents of the party standards, who would have more confidence in the purposes and influence of the publication if it selected other subjects for examples of its service. The traditional record of vicious influence which Tammany and its leaders have injected into the activi- ties of the party is to be regretted, though 1t has been tolerated under mistaken view of political expediency. But it will not ap- peal to the ideals or judgment ot Democrats who believe in character and decency in pub lie life. It is not easy to believe that pub ication which cOnspicuously employs indorse- ment of a Tammany head as an asset will appeal strongly to the sympathetic c0-opera- tion of self-respecting Democrats who are familiar with the unwholesome political his tory and influence of that organization.

On Taking Stock
By Fl. ADDINGT0N BRUCE

Every once in so often merchants make survey of the wares they have on hand. This enables them not only to know with ac- curacy the aggregate money value of their merchandise. but also to form judgments re- garding the comparative selling value of the different kinds of goods on their shelves and in their store rooms.
 Thus they are in a position to discriminate between goods that really are assets to them and goods that are more in the nature of ia- bilities. Which, of course, assists them to reshape their business policy with a view to getting better results.
 Seldom do merchants, though no matter how careful in the way of taking stock of their merchandise, give anything like equal thought to the importance of taking stock of themselves.
 If goods move more slowly than is profit able, the fault may actually be not so much with the goods as with their sellers. Again and again it happens that because of unfor- tunate personal traits and the atmosphere which these create in the place of business. merchants keep away from their stores cus- toners whose purchases would mean a rapid turnover of the invested capital.
 This is notOriously true of merchants not wholly honest in their business principles. domineering, tactless, rude, over-aggressive or churlish in their bearing. Customers are hurt, chilled, perhaps angered by the way such merchants deal with them. And quickly they pass around the word:
 "So-and-so is not pleasant man to trade with. You have only to go. into his store once to discover that. I'd almost sooner do without things than buy them from him" Which is not good advertising. Usually, unfortunately, merchants who thus alienate customers are quite unconscious of the part they themselves play in retarding the move ment of the goods they have to sell. In all such cases mental stock-taking would mean the making of discoveries that would help to correct errors more serious than the er- TOTS involved in stocking up" with goods that at best are only sem-salable.
 Nor are merchants by any means the only doers of business for whom occasional mental stock-taking is desirable. 1t is a custom to be commended to all who are active in busi- ness life in any way. whether as the hesds of large organizations or the humblest work CTS therein. [
 For always personality counts, and counts heavily. in the gaining or the missing of busi- ness success. This naturally follows from the fact that business inevitably involves human relationships. and those who so carry them selves to keep the relationships pleasant are distinctly advantaged whatever their oc- equation.
 To this end the better one knows oneself, the easier it is to make ones personality count through the eradication of unfavorable characteristics and habits. Mental stock taking, if done honestly and really thought fully, assists nothing else can to the need ful self-knowledge.

THE PRACTICAL WAY

One of the members of the county board of revenue recently expressed himself in ia vor of submitting the proposal of bond issue to erect an adequate county adminis- tfation building to q vote of the people in the May election. He further advocated the erection of a building that will provide for the increasing growth and needs of the county for the next fifty years. This is more in line with proper procedure.
 The fact is, while everybody admits the need for an adequate building, and nobody is disposed to question the wisdom of the project, if properly planned and financed, there is only one practical and fair way to proceed. That is to submit a definite pro posal, or definite alternate proposals, to d vote of the people. who bear the financial burdens and whose interests are directly con cerned. There is no reason why a definite building plan may not be laid before the people in the May election. That is the only wise and defensible way to settle the matter. If the board will devote much lime and effort to formulating q definite plan to be submitted to the people as has Been wasted in secret maneuvering consld- eration of impractical proposals and attempts to prevent the people from expressing them selves on this public project there will be brighter prospect of eventual result.

A Plea For Unity

To the Editor of The ge-IIerald
 It was a great victory and one that the 30 years faithful service of Senator Under wood deserved The honor, however. is even greater to our state than to him personally
 Let us all now present united front ana bend our efforts to secure the support of our sister states for his nomination by the Nwt York convention, and the continuation will be victory in November. with the placing 1T the White House the first occupant from Ala bama
 I never saw campaign in which more misstatement was made and venomous hatred and prejudice displayed, but am sure the victors can afford to and will be magnanimous. as we realize that many of our opponents were laboring under q mis- apprehension or led astray by designing per sons or those who. blinded by prejudice, re- fused to see the light and truth
 May all past differences be forgotten and our citizens join hands in a spirit of cooper ation and unity of purpose for the upbulld ing of our great state and country.
 I was highly gratified to note from the vote at our city boxes. with which was most familiar, that intelligent and patriotic pro hibitionsts voted for Senator Underwood in overwhelming numbers, my own box giving him 16S to n total of 15 for his opponents. If Bryan will just butt into other states and stump them with the same interpretations and exhibit of the same personal spleen, l think the nomination of Underwood will be unanimous John w. Sibley.

Watching The Parade
By JOHN PILGRIM

By the time got through talking to Jim Davis I was convinced It was plain enough to me that Davis had been absolutely right in his position. Every one who knows Davis swears by him. He is honest, capable and fair-and not every honest man is fair, al though every fair man is honest Think that over. It will stand it. So I aired my new found knowledge that night.
 Davis was right" I said. Anyone who cannot see that Davis was right is a particularly low grade moron. Why, the facts are"
 came from Davis and he would not willingly understate or overstate. But about the time that l got through making my brief but eloquent address a perspiring brother in the far corner rose to correct me.
 What you have just said is true," he re- marked, passing a finger around inside his collar. But you do not go far enough. These things are also true"
 And he gave me lot of new facts. We disputed bitterly for time. Then we called on Davis and the other men who were in the controversy and asked for more light. It wasn't such an important matter that they refused to talk. None of them had lost their temper. They were quite willing to discuss the problem that had just been, in a way of speaking, settled. After the debate the other man and I walked home together.
 "Darn it." we said, neither of us was right. The truth isn't as one7sided as we saw it. And neither of us was wrong, |.
 That same lesson has been hammered into me a thousand times, more or less. Yet I have no doubt that the next time hear some one state his side of the story l will be just as thoroughly convinced as I was after lis tening to Jim Davis. Maybe will learn, in time, to hold my horses. Perhaps I can persuade myself that no stars will fall if do not make up my mind on a hearing of one nf nnlv iS hat han I get old enough I will wait to get all the facts before bringing in verdict.
 But l doubt that. When he was eight hum dred and seventy-five years old Methuselah probably sat on a cracker barrel in some antediluvian grocery and told the other old settlers the real low-down on the Adam and Eve scandal.
 "Never mind what Adam claims" he prob ably said "Eve was right. Don't I know? Didn't she tell me?"
