engaged in farm work until "a, he
has retained his individuality.
Certain popular phases Of city
life have no appeal whatsoever TO
him.
Since he entered the employ OF
the Mccormick Reaper Company
nearly 40 years ago, in a humble
capacity, he has won his way to
the presidency of the Interna-
tional Harvester Company by the
extraordinarily diligent exercise
OF innate ability. He had neither
friends nor fortune to boost him.
He rose by push, not by pull.
Like most country boys, ne
learned to look upon hard work
as LIES normal lot.
This Is not the first time he has
responded to an appeal TO serve
his country. He was vice chairman
of the War Industries Board dur
ing the war and. manager OF the
Allied Purchasing Commission.
His rare organizing skill will now
be brought into play on colossal
scale. Doubtless II was this phase
of the task which appealed most TO
him..
incidentally. It says something
for the character and the business
principles of the head of the "Har-

Endorsement of $50 farm organiza-

our farm population must have
felt that he has given them a
square deal. President Hoover. our

are to be congratulated on this
choice.
