WHOLESALE GROCERS
LOSE ON SLOW CAPITAL
/. U. Bureau Reports -Four Turns
Yearly Profitable.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Dec. T.
That the wholesale grocer in 1ndi-
ana must turn his capital more
than four times year to make a
profit was indicated here today in
the report of an investigation into
the wholesale grocery business for
1927 by the Indiana university
bureau of business research.
The report shows that with one
exception, among a group of Indi-
ana wholesalers, those who turned
their capital more than four times
a year made money, while those
who turned their capital less than
three times lost money.
Eleven of twenty-five firms re-
porting showed losses in operating
profit. The range was from 6 per
cent loss to IA per cent profit. On
a total business for the year of
$24,000,000, the total operating
profit was shown to be only little
more than 100000.
Of the $24,00O,000 in sales, $21,-
100000 went to pay for the goods
sold and $2,4O0,0OO for operating
expenses.

all workers to the utmost, both on the
industrial fieldl and out of it. The
history of the trades union movement
is one of uplife and helpfulness. 1t
has hundreds of good laws and mil
lions of good deeds to its credit. 1t
has supported and fought for every
humane statute proposed in the last
hundred years and it has initiated
most of them.
Therefore the unionist movement
has a strong moral fabric at the back
of it. 1t is based upon morality, de-
eency, uprightness and good order as
opposed to the disorganized, aimless,
obiectiveless and drifting element of
our society. The union movement is a
cohesive mass with mission and a
chartered cours with purpose of
reaching higher and more desireable
objective.
That moral background can not be
impaired or destroyed through any
acts of the organized workers without
injury or destruction of the movement.

drives fercely, if only he can be near
his masters side. He will kiss the
hand that has no food to offer, he will
lick the wounds and sores that come
in encounter with the roughness of
the world. He guards the sleep Of his
pauper master as if he were prince.
When all other friends desert he re-
mains. When riches take wings and
reputation falls to pieces he is as con-
slant in his love as the sun in its jour
ney through the heavens. If fortune
drives the master forth an outcast in
the world, friendless and homeless, the
faithful dog asks no higher privilege
than that of accompanying him to
guard against danger, to fight against
his enemies, and when the last scene
of all comes, and death takes the mas
ter in its embrace and his body is laid
away in the cold ground, no matter
if all other friends pursue their way,
there by his graveside will the noble
dog be found, his head between his
paws, his eyes sad but open in alert
watchfulness, faithful and true even
to death.

EULOCY ON THE DOG
BY SENATOR GEORGE G. VEST.
of Missouri

Gentlemen of the Jury:-The best
friend man has in this world may
turn against him and become his ene-
my. His son or daughter that he has
reared with loving care may prove un-
grateful. Those who are nearest and
dearest to US, those whom we trust
with our happiness and our good name,
may become traitors to their faith
The money that man has he may
lose. 1t flies away from him, perhaps
when he needs it most A mans repu-
tation may be sacrificed in moment
of ill-considered action. The people
who are prone to fall on their knees to
do Us honor when success is with us
may be the first to throw the stone of
malice when failure settles its cloud
upon our heads. The one absolute, un-
selfish friend that man can have in
this selfish world, the one that never
deserts him, the one that never proves
ungrateful or treacherous, is his dog.
Gentlemen of the Jury, mans dog
stands by him in prosperity and IN
poverty, in health and in sickness. He
will sleep on the cold ground, where
the wintry winds blow and the snow

1t is so interviewer with the explana-
tions of alibis for its conduct, because
that conduct should be above the need
of kow-towing, sycophantry or in
trigue with evil things.
When the labor movement, or any
integral part of it, ceases to hold its
hgih ideal it has invariably retrogress-
ed. Decay has set in and dissolution
inevitable. 1t is like the individual
who is forced to explain his action
when that action has become the sub
ject of suspicion, doubt and question
ing.
Let US keep the labor movement
clean and upon the foundation given
it by its founders and it will be above
question and above apologies and it
will go forward.

THE MORAL FABRIC
OF LABOR

The union movement is primarily
an economic one. But the social and
moral elements of life are so closely
interviewer with it that they can not
be ignored with impunity by the un-
ionists. 1t is also religious move
ment in the highest sense of that term.
1t is social and moral because it has
as its mission the bringing of bet
ter life to the masses-better homes,
better society, a higher conception
Of the meaning of life through i'm
proved economic conditions-the
means to reach these things.
1t is a renglous movement in its
highest conception because it is con-
cerned particularly with the salvaging
of women and children in industry and
in their home life, and in protecting
