needs more and bigger men than many,
many small businesses could possibly
need. With this larger need comes
larger opportunity.
We have come to n point where
there are more things 20 be done than
we have men to do them. And it is
big business which has brought all
this about.
When there were more men than
opportunities, there was struggle OF o
very fierce and often inhuman kind.
But TO assume that such is the es-
sential law of business practice and
business success in these days is non
sense.
From a condition where it was be-

CHAPTER Ill
Big Business and the Money Power

Big Business and the Money Power.
Business-that is, the whole ma
terial side Of life7Ais threatened by
two classes of people who think they
are in opposition, but who actually
have common cause.-The profess
sional financier and reformer.
Both go about the destruction OF
business. That is what they have in
common. Their ways are not alike
Their motives are not alike. But.
given a free hand. either can destroy
business very quickly.
There is nothing to be said against
the financier-the man who really I'M
derstands the management of money
and its place in life. There is moth
ing to be said against the reformer
who knows what he is about and
knows the effect of the changes he de-
sircs and who is willing to give the
people T. be reformed a chance.
But it is very different with the pro-
fessional financier, who finances for
the sake of financing and what he can
get out of it in money. without
thought of the walfara Of the people.
The professional reformer likewise re-
forms for the sake of reforming and
for his own satisfaction and without a
thought of the real welfare of the peo-
pie,
These two utterly unthinking classes
are real menaces. The professional fl
nancierS wrecked Germany. The pro-
fessional reformers wrecked Russia.
You can take your choice as TO who
made the better job of it.
"WHO CONTROLS LEAGUE?"
These two classes. working either d.
rectly or through politicians, are in
control of Europe and are responsible
for its poverty. The League Of Ma
tons and all its adjunets, such as the
World Court, are in their control, and
under no system which they devise
do the people have a chance. Especial
" are they opposed to any theory of
industry which makes for the general
welfare.
The people abroad are content to
take sops in the form Of resolutions
and treaties, but presently people
everywhere will learn to disregard the
teachings Of both professional finan-
ciers and professional reformers, just
as we have learned TO disregard them
here in the United States.
They will 90 forward on princi-
pies Of real economy and will learn
/ that there is no connection between
real business and the money power and
that attacking business in order to
reach the money power is merely play
| ing into the hands of the financiers.
The notion that money is the liz
blood Of business and that if you car
! control money you can control bust
ness has just enough foundation I,
make it seem real, because we have to
express in dollars what. are not dOllari
/ at ALL
Take the Ford industries. For &C.
counting and tax purposes they have

stations. experts of the survey. work
ing over period of weeks with the
newest instruments. gathered data
which they declare will be of great
value to mariners and to engineers
working on harbor improvements of
marine construction of any kind.
So complete will be the information
furnished that shipping men or mar
inc engineers will be able to tell by
consulting the table just how the
tides are running or the currents are
moving at any hour of the day or
night at any point in the harbor or
the nearby bays.
Sixty stations were set up for the
observation of the currents at every
important point in the broad harbor,
which is dotted with small islands
and into which a number of streams
empty. Eight stations were used
for the tide survey with automatic
gauges in operation night and day
over a period Of a week or more.
The purpose of the survey was to
furnish data that would permit the
determination of the time, velocity

Airplane Delivers
Small Town Paper

Temple, Tex Sept. 12-(P,-This
small city of Temple, Texas, boasts
of the only small town newspaper in
the country that has a regular air.
plane delivery route.
f. X. Williams, publisher of the
Temple Telegram, was reading an ar
ticle in a scientific magazine some
time ago in which the author pre-
dicted that eventually all small town
daily newspapers would be compelled
to cease publication because large
town dailies would have their news
papers delivered by airplane.
Mr.. Williams has been interested
in aeronautics since the early days
of aviation and has owned planes
for ten years. When he read the ar
ticfe he determined to forestall any
attempt of large dailies to invade his
circulation field. So he purchased
two airplanes and employed an avia-
tor as his route carrier.
A route of more than fifty miles
was established. With the airplane
service, the Telegram was able to in
crease its circulation in the nearby
towns.
Mr.. Ingram pointed out that the
communities served by airplane de-
livery received newspapers within an
hour after the papers come from the
press, whereas previously the sub
scribers on the same route were for
tunate to receive their Telegram the
day following.
