Entitled to Make Money

A S g. matter Of fact, we believe
1 A. not only in prosperity, but in
the things which prosperity makes
possible.
We believe that people are en-
titled to make money, provided they
do so in accordance with the rules
Of the game.
We believe in the opportunities
which private enterprise offers, and
in the reward of individual ability.
What we do not believe in is
bullying, whether on the school
campus, or in the oil field.
II II
To sum it up, America puts her
faith in craftsmanship.
She does not begrudge the cham
pion his crown, provided he wins it
fairly, but she detests any one who
tries to win with a foul.
That is the one reason why public
opinion and law often appear to
conflict, why some men whom the
latter holds innocent are eXecrated,
while others whom it holds guilty
are honored.
There is, in this country, a deep
seated love of fair play.
Long may it live.

Wealth Plays at Politics

IN ENGLAND, the descendants of
Il wealthy or aristocratic families
have played an important part in
development of statecraft.
Curious as it may seem, quite q
few of them are to be found in the
ranks of the Labor party. which
suggests that class tradition, as we
call it, does not hold when people
begin to think.
Thus far, this country has been
fairly successful in avoiding class
tradition Most of its leaders have
sprung from the people, and most
Of them have not forgotten their
origin,
There Is a good deal of the old
fashioned democracy in our big
houses and boards of directors.
There is so much of it, indeed,
that most young men and women
with spullk consider it no disgrace
to accept those who have made the
grade as models.
What boy in this country would
not like to be an Edison, a Ford,
OF an Owen D. Young?
What girl would not like to be a
Gloria Swanson, g, Carrie Chapman
Gait, or an Anne Morgan?
