k06AU
In an age that holds business uprightness the rule
and not the exception. it is the unethical conduct that
makes news. But though fair dealing is the usual ex-
pectation, there is cause for public qualification in the
prompt concern of three great investment houses 20
see that their recommendations caused no loss to in
vestors.
When Hayden, Stone 4 Co. found that engineers
had overestimated the earning capacity of a coal COM
pany for which the bankers were selling a bond issue
Of 100000, they did not look for someone to hold the
bag. The coal company's equipment was sold, but the
sale brought a relatively small amount. Although not
legally bound to make good the losses of bond pur-
chasers, these bankers agreed not only to pay the cost
Of prosecuting all claims against the coal company. but
also to make good the ultimate losses on the bonds.
A bond issue Of a gas and fuel company offered by
Halsey, Stuart & Co., resulted in a similar action by
this firm. Between the time when subscriptions were
received and the actual issue Of the bonds the market
rate on comparable outstanding issues declined. There
upon the firm sent to all subscribers the difference
between the offering price and the current market val
ue.
The third ca. is that Of the sls. 100000 bond issue
of a steel comply offered through the National City
company. Whe1 discrepancies were found in the steel
company's finarfAl statement the banking house, at
considerable COD called in the bonds. refunded the
purchasing prichsand paid interest to cover the period
during which IL buyers had their money tied up, abb
sorbing all thekiost Of the abortive transaction.
To content. that these operations were no more
than good bNitness" is to grudge the acknowledge
ment of prog in business ethics. The deeper sig
nificance he'd y TIE indicated unity between self-im-
posed standaEs of commercial practice and the most
idealistic cor epts Of personal conduct. More and
more, it is fen. the dictates Of good business" are
for the publA good.

GIVING UP HOPE
By Charles p. Driscoll

A singer inhaled gas and died in New York re.
Gently, leaving a note explaining that she was a fail.
ure in her art, and that it was now too late to star;
all over again.
This singer was thirty years old. She had spent
most Of her time preparing for a-career as 9 singer
although she also hads Sauerable talent as an act
ress. She hoped for success in opera.
She studied under some Of the greatest instructors.
At thirty, she was ready TO begin. She appeared in
her first public recital in a New York theater.
Some Of the critics next day spoke slightingly Of
the young woman's performance. One even said she
'coundn't sing. Others spoke in praise.
The unfavorable criticisms broke the singers
heart. She was overwhelmed with a sense Of defeat.
She killed herself.
It is not easy to understand the lack Of courage
that could cause anyone. at thirty, with a healthy
body and a good mind, to commit suicide because Of
failure. I shall not attempt to judge the poor singer.
No one is competent to appreciate the storm that ragged
in the sensitive souls depths when she read the I'M
favorable criticisms.
But this is merely to point out to others that a
sense Of perspective can obviate suicide and despair in
such cases.
What matter what the critics say? In the first
place. the critics are far from infallible. They make
many errors Of judgment. If Henry Ford had taken the
critics seriously. he would have swallowed gasoline
after the appearance of his first automobile on the
road. and the two millionth one would be an impossi-
.bility. If the Wrights had listened to the critics, they
would have applied for residence in an insane asylum
before their first ~airplane left the ground in indie
pendent flight.
At thirty. one may snap ones fingers at critics, de-
tractors, crape-hangers and knockers. Suppose you do
have to change your occupation or choose a new pro-
fession. That's nothing to commit suicide about. !
have told in this column the story of a man who lost
his eyesight at forty-eight and became a blind insur-
ance salesman at fifty. At fifty-five he j. near the
top among all the thousands Of insurance statesmen in
this country. Suppose he had inhaled gas when he lost
his sight What q waste Of good years that would
have been, and what an injustice TO his family and
frineds.
Everybody's problems are his own, and we cannot
know the depths of our neighbours sorrow. But l do
not recommend despair or suicide to healthy persons
Of thirty. no matter what the critics may say.

Cutting the Markets

The market reports from the large centers of
population in the East clearly reflect the unorganized
condition among thu producers Of winter vegetables
and the haphazard methods Of shipping.
Two weeks ago New York offered an excellent mar
ket for spinach. The demand was steady, the price
good, and Texas shippers Immediately started concen-
trating shipments to that market. Here are the re-
suits as reported by the New York Herald-Tribune Of
February 8:
I'm spite of the drop in temperature yesterday
green vegetables took a sharp skid downward in
price, and spinach is once more among the cheaper Of
ferines. The first large receipts Of the vegetable
from Texas since the recent freeze there are response
bic for this good news. Wholesale spinach prices are
only half what they were last week and retail prices
are down about five cents per pound"
On the same date the Philadelphia papers report
ed a scarcity Of spinach and several other vegetables
on the market with prices scar lg.
The New York paper has the following regarding
the cabbage market in that city:
Cabbage is the third fresh vegetable wonder, hav-
ing sunk in the wholesale market to unheard Of prices
stands now is new cabbage, because the new cabbage
IS so reasonable it does not Pay the cold storage deal
ers in the western part Of the state to move their pro-
duce to town."
However, the cold storage dealers in the western
Part OF New York found it profitable to ship their
cabbage to Philadelphia. Buffalo and as far south as
Atlanta, Ca, where il was competing with new cabbage
and was offering it on the stands at a lower price than
the old was due to the fact the market was glutted
with new cabbage, on which the southern growers and
shippers were taking q loss.
The New York vegetable market the past two
months would indicate that it is the sole ambition Of
Southern winter vegetable shippers TO provide the
residents of that city with cheap vegetables. Humid
reds of cars of vegetables have been rushed TO that
market only TO be sold at a loss or diverted. with extra
freight costs, to other markets which are not glutted.
In the meantime the growers ard shippers have been
taking losses with almost unvarying regularity. all due
to the fact that there is absolutely no organization in
the industry.
New York has been and probably always will be
the most important market fer the producers Of win
ter vegetables, but there are thousands of other mar
kets in the United States to be served. New York can
utilize q certain quantity Of vegetables and when that
quantity is exceeded the market is certain to sag. The
loss sustained this year by southern growers in that
pne market alone probably runs into millions of dol
lars, q loss which could have been averted had they
been organized for proper distribution of their pro-
lucts-

happened that made him clap his

There. perched upon a bush not

gentleman in a gray coat. Such .
funny, merry face as this fat gentle
man had, His chin was white and
hh mouth was yellow and he had
qfeer spots under his eyes. But
somehow, in spite Of al. this. he was
a very nice looking sort Of fellow.
and it was plain TO be seen at the
first glance he was fond Of color.
for he wore a vest Of bright red. And
by this red vest Peter knew him at
once for an old friend.
