BUSINESS NEEDS
Finds Better Management
Greatly Needed to Check
Fluctuations.
BY ROGER w. BABS0N.
,eciaI Disp7tch 10 The Star.

Special Dispatch 10 The Star.
WELLESLEY HILLS. Mass. May
e.-Many business men are wondering
why. with fundamental conditions so
smuch better, there is no greater inl-
Orovement in general business. With
money so cheap and labor quiescent.
why is il that sales are so difficult and
profits so small?
& One is apt to think that there are
only two two important factors in in
uuStry-namely, capital and labor. OF
course, this is a great mistake, and
the error never was more obvious
than at the present time. We now
have very cheap money, so that cap
ital can readily be obtained for even
queStiona BILE promotions; Whilej the
country has not been SO free from
labor strikes for years.
Management Also Vital
What then is the difficulty? There
are various difficulties, but perhaps
our real trouble is that we have for
gotten that there are three important
factors, and that the third is manage
ment Has there been enough i'm
provement and growth in manage
nent? Are not many corporations still
carrying the burden of n Superan-
nuated personnel?
Cutting overhead means to many of
ficials the cutting of everything ex-
cepting their own salaries. when really
the corporation might be better off if
they quit altogether and gave their
position to younger and more re-
sourc%ful men. There is little question
that all of us should wake up and per-
form our work more efficiently.
Factors in Management.
The greatest values are created
neither by capital nor by labor, but
by good management, and this good
management is made up of character,
Judgment, vision and courage. The
leadership of every corporation is de-
termined by this factor. Good man
agement is not a question of age. Of
family or of wealth Sometimes age
helps and sometimes youth helps,
while other factors are sometimes Il
handicap or an advantage.
One thing, however, is certain-hat
however large the corporation and
however many officials it may have
some one man is usually responsible
for the management. Moreover, cor
porationS without such a boss are
well nigh hopeless. Certain railroads
and industrials which are not doing
well today are either lacking a boss
or need a new one.
After a successful battle Napoleon
always gave the credit to his brave
generals" He stated that they really
had done all the work and We're en-
titled to the praise. Whatever Napo-
leon really thought, we shall never
know. History, however. teaches that
after Napoleon was taken to St
Helena all the brave generals" went
TO farming! If they were all so i'm
portant, it seems as if one of them
Evening star., 1925-05-09

would have made good without Napo-
leon to lean on.
All of which makes me believe that
the trouble with some corporations to-
day is that the "old man" is either
dead or else is not tending to his job.
The brave generals" are doing the
best they can, but they are helpless
without their leader, however large
their salaries may be.
| wish there was some way by which
management could he satisfactorily
listed in every balance sheet. OF
course the balance sheet reflects man
aeement. but does not actually list is
as q liability or as an asset. Yet IN
most corporations the management is
the greatest asset or liability which
the corporation has. Management
not only is of greater Importance than
either capital or labor, but manage
ment attracts the capital and directs
the labor.
How Fortunes Are Made.
Nearly all great fortunes have been
made either because of the posses
sion of great leadership qualities or
because of the ability to select these
qualities in the men hired to build an
Eanization. Wealth. education ana
other things which we think so I'M
nOflant are merely lllIllIlillSS- liO
real question deciding success or fall-
ure in the industrial world is a man S
leadership or management qualities.
Those who have such may safely
so into business for themselves or
undertake a managerial position with
a great corporation, but those who
have not such qualities should always
work as employees and never attempt
10 dictate policy.
Change i'm Views Noted.
Many who were very pessimistic on
railroad securities a few years ago are
optimistic today. Such men are now
buying railroad stocks at prices above
what they sold them for in previous
years. In. some cases the situation
has so fundamentally improved thai
such a change in attitude is JuStl-
fed. but this is not q safe assumption
in many cases. Many of the rail
roads are still III need of u real boss
and many others need d change IN
Just because the railroads are now
freq from labor troubles and are en-
loving good rates and easy money IS
no reason why they are permanently

JUST A FACE
By d. MAITLAND BUSHBY.
(Written for The Mail.)

In the passing crowd l see but one
face,
Yet not a member of the crowd
at all,
But one that stares at me from out
the space
Of memory, sending plaintive
call,
And seeming to smile at me in re-
proach,
Still it disappears when 1 would
approach.
She was young, bewitchingly sweet
and true.
eiderdown,
Her eyes fair Knocked the sky's i'm
perfect blue,
And never shadowed with a
frown.
Curving lips that always smiled in
greeting,
Set many hearts to a faster beat
ing
Music found in her soul ready
home
How well / remember her low,
sweet songs
AS she sang them clear and light
as seas foam.
She stood apart always from the
crude throngs,
Like FURNISHED golden idol of life
That is removed from mans eter-
nal strife.
Now as I roam on life's highway
alone
l see her dear face in the pass
ing crowd,
Calling me back to a marble head
stone,
And my soul, hearing, writhes,
calling aloud
For mercy, for pity, or else for
death,
Until it is forced to stop for want
of breath.

CLEAN LITERATURE.

IN MANY of the states west of
the Mississippi the cowboy and
prospector still ride their broncos
and burros and live lives of ro-
nance, adventure and exploration
the basis of western open air lit
erature.
The western literary product in
cludes moving pictures, action sto-
ries, cowboy songs and frontier
ballads, and thousands of story,
verse and song writer's supply the
world with this material that is
read by millions.
Two years ago Col E. Hofer, of
Salem, Ore, a lifelong newspaper
man and publisher, established a
western literary monthly, The
Lariat, to encourage western writ
ers, set higher standards, and fight
degenerate products.
In it's third year, it is followed by
the Lariat Story Magazine, pub
lished by Real Adventures Publish
ing company, New York, and the
Northwest Writers Bureau, at Sa-
lem, Ore, making a market for lit
erary products of the open air and
adventure stories in popular mag
aZines.
While thrilling with the romance
of a new and robust civilization,
western writer's as a class turn out
a clean, vital, wholesome literature
singularly free from all taint OF
degeneracy.

ADVANTAGE OF SMALL PAPERS

LVROM an ethical standpoint it
can be fairly claimed that the
country press and small city
dailies have a marked advantage
over the big metropolitan news
papers.
The smaller papers are conduct
ed by their owners, who are per-
sonally known to the people and
business men of the community,
and read in nearly every family.
The owners, editors and publish
ers are freer to express their hon.
est convictions than the highly
commercialized city press, too Oft
en- run by hired employees, princi-
pally to earn dividends.
The small daily or country week
ly that lives up to its opportunities
represents the stand of personal
journalism in behalf of the COM
munity.

CHURCH NEWS

pEV. JOHN T. B. SMITH, of the
Methodist World Service COM
mission, defends the press against
charges of decadence, and declares
that never before was So much
church and religious news printed.
He feels that church news can be
made interesting, and that if 50
the newspapers are glad to print it.
1t would be fine thing if every
minister would do newspaper for
about a year as preparation for his
calling. Then he would get the
news point of view, and would be
able so to present the activities OF
his parish that they would make
interesting reading. 1t does not
make very interesting story just
to announce the dates and hours
when meetings are held, but every
effort in church work can be made
into news story by featuring re-
suits achieved and difficulties over
come.

THE EFFECT OF ADVERTISING
IF ALL the meetings of business

IF ALL the meetings of business
men were fully reported, there
would be a constant run of testi-
mony as to the value of advertis-
ing as factor in everyday trade.
For instance, at a recent meet
ing of cranberry growers Mr..
CLANCY, of the American Cranberry
Exchange, of New York, told of the
benefits of advertising in that
business. He said that it made it
possible to move crops in years of
heavy production by keeping up
constant demand.
Thus advertising is constantly
working in many lines to stabilize
production and make it efficient
7and economical.
Conditions used to be very chaot-
ic in many lines of Agricultural
production. If the growers got
large crop, the price might fall so
low that there would be very little
profit in it, perhaps none at ALL
But if they advertise that crop ade-
quately, so that people are remind
of the benefit and satisfaction of
using that product, then the de-
mand increases and becomes pro-
GAL TWO-EDITORIAL -. -. ......
pOrtionate to the supply, and the
big surplus which would have be-
come a glut on the market is
promptly moved.
Such a policy works to the ad-
vantage of the public. Without the
help of such advertising a glutted
market tends to discourage produc-
ton and drives producers out of
the business, so that the next year
there may be scarcity and prices
unreasonably high. Such a condi-
tion creates heavy losses, and does
not lead to fair prices.
So in retail trade, advertising
tends to build up a regular busi-
ness which can be depended upon
year after year, which sells at low
prices because it does business in
such an efficient way, and which
pleases the people because it can
pay good wages to intelligent help
in return for exceptional service.
