The Senate District committee prob
ably will meet Wednesday morning TO
consider the several local measures
that have been introduced since the

awaiting committee action is the pro
posed revision Of the traffic law to
clothe the director with more author
fty to control policemen assigned to
traffic duty, ample power to suspend
and revoke permits for cause and TO
broaden other sections Of the original

Another important measure is the

House in the last Congress, but failed
of action in the Senate.
The committee also has before it the
resolution offered by Senator Wesley
l.. Jones Of Washington providing
for a constitutional amendment under

to give the District Of Columbia rep

he sought a spot where he could com

THE GOD OF INDUSTRY

Business needs change Of purpose according to
?. Hapgood president OF canning factory, speaking
to the Congress of American Industry in session at Phia
delpha He said the god of industry is the god of profit
and he felt it should be god of personality instead
This gentleman has raised the question as to how far
the seeking of profit is legitimate motive in industry
Some people think profits all very wrong and that
American business will be the wrong tack until it gives
up or subordinates the idea of profit IS. 4a
The man who operates business OF who furnishes
the capital for business is entitled to reasonable profit
interest just workman is entitled to his wages If
business is not rendering such return to those who d
rect it and furnish the capital for it, it is not sound
basis It in danger of Decline and if it Declines families
are made to suffer hardship and their prospects for the
future are harmfully affected.
A business man ought to make profit just as he
ought pay fair wages and make fair prices and making
reasonable profit may be considered duty like support
ing ones family.
In the past however many business have de-
voted themselves exclusively to heapng up profits with
out regard to human relations They have bought and
sold labor commodity without considering that the
community is not well served unless the workpeope also
are proftaby employed The friction resulting has made
industry less productive and hence costly the comm-
ity.
The business of the future will not be satisfied unless
its operations profitable to the capitalists and man
ayers profitable to the employees and profitable to the pub

MAKING A BETTER CITY

If someone makes really good suggestion of some
thing that would benefit his home town. and if he asked
why he does not try to put that suggestion into effect he
will commonly reply that is not his business to do it.
Such person may have the feeling, that if he went
ahead and tried to lead movement to accomplish that
idea he would be butting in where he did not belong
But when you have good civic organizations in the
city, like Bearooth Boosters Club something of that
kind you have the machinery for carrying out such ideas
CARNATIONS for just that purpose carry out the good
People named to offices and committees in these or
ideas of their MEMBERS and in that way excellent sug
gesons, which formerly produced result taken up
and pushed to realization as has been demonstrated

IDEAS AND ACTION

There end of good ideas in city like Red
Lodge which if taken up and acted upon would be very
helpful to the community But the greater part of them
come to anything because people just express them
to their friends and do anything about them We
need action as well as ideas
The way to get action is perfectly clear and it is to
join good organization like our Beartooth Boosters
Club Then you attend its meetings and show interest
in its work. your ideas will be listened to- If they have
merit and probably they have they will arouse attention
and committee will be set to work on them and you
reasonably expect to see them accomplished to the
advantage of everyone in community. *s.FG

H. Columbus, o. - Announcement of

Plat he would ask another term as

l@atement typical of the Governor,

1ents Ohio voters know the callber
men that will be called upon for
1uty should Donahey be reelected.
Large utility corporations have
1ocked such appointments in the
yast, and they will attempt it again.
of this there is no doubt, but they
gill not have the same advantage as
E they elected a Governor OF their
swn selection. Fear that some OF
,hese companies will lose their
triangle hold on several of Ohio state
COMMISSIONS indicates that they Will

Unfortunate families for their daily

state which has such generous com
