be satisfied to have her fastened with iron. No,
SIR said |. If l build her she's going to be
doweled and copper fastened What's it to
you? It's my vessel said he. What's it to me?
It's my self-respect; it's my pride in my trade

the best that can be built"
Conscientious pride in the achievement of the
best still lives 1t is the spirit upon which in
1874 at Manchester, New Hampshire. Roger G.
Sullivan laid the foundation of 7-204-now the
largest strictly handmade cigar industry in the
World. 1t is the same spirit that today-after
ffty-six years of public confdence-refuses to
lower its standard of workmanship and tobaccos
at the sacrifice of the finest cigar Quality.

BY J. p. GLASS.

By j. p. GLASS.
one wishes to get sane view Of what is
7 happening in the country economically and
socially, one does well to consult the expert
ence of a man like John Hays Hammond,
the distinguished mining engineer
Mr. Hammond has witnessed the development
OF the so-called modern industrial revolution
from the beginning. An unselfish worker for the
very benefits the revolution" has brought, he
has enjoyed intimate associations In every quarter
where the levers of progress are manipulated.
His profession, carrying him we'll over the globe,
has made him a world observer. Now in his
seventy-fifth year, his interest in the movement
of events Is as active ever, and his deduction
Of their meaning mellowly ripe
During a recent conversation, Mr.. Hammond
made the interesting observation that manage
ment of the great industries of today constitutes
a new craftsmanship more closely related in
many particulars to the life Of the people. than
the craftsmanship of the Government itself.
Leader More Than an Executive.
An industrial leader he said is more than a
business executive. AS the head Of a great cor
poration he must be economist and sociologist.
He is, so to speak, premier Of a principally OF
business whose policies deal not merely with
profits but with the welfare Of the citizens Of
that principality-that is to say the employees OF
the corporation as well as its stockholders, big
and little
Exactly what" asked him, docs this mean
with relation to the future trend Of events?"
las I see It," said Mr. Hammond, ut means
that the country has available at all times
highly organized expert intelligence, susceptible
Of quick mobilization which will deal with all
problems that may arise with enlightened SYM
pathy for the best human relationships. This
means everything, Of course, to stability and to
progress.
Radicals may attack our system Of govern
ment because 1t puts no limits upon individual
achievement However, the strength OF the
system is that it makes all achievement respon-
sible in the end, to public opinion.
New Conception OF Riches.
"Injustices may arise, but the logic Of events
eventually restores progress in the right direction
For instance, consider the change In the
attitude Of men Of wealth toward wealth.
1.-THE tremendous development Of the country in
the latter half of the nineteenth century enabled
certain men to accumulate undreamed-of riches
Having no precedent by which they could relate
their acquisitions logically to democratic back
ground, they held fast to their fortunes, using
them for social aggrandizement. Abroad, their
wealth would have gained them admission. in
time to the nobility Here such thing was not
possible Their vast possession brought them
only criticism and often indeed obloquy.

Where Is America Going?


This wise humane policy Of the employer was
made economically possible by recognition Of the
reciprocal obligation of the employee to promote
compromising increased production.
Business Man Avoided Hypocrisy.
IT think II to the credit Of the American
business man that he adopted the innovations Of
the last uarter century, not 50 much in behest
Of st. Matthew's injunction Freely ye have re-
ceived freely give on the hypothesis that
they were good business He refused to place
himself under suspicion Of hypocrisy. am sure
however he Is gratified that good has been ac-
complished on other considerations than good
business
Closely related to the humanitarian movement
In industry have been our achievements in sci
entific management. Machinery has enabled US
to give the worker wages and working con-
diions far better that the most radical agitators
envtsioned rs years ago.
"It is rather astounding. though highly graft
flying. Our business geniuses, our engineers and
chemists set out to achieve successes quite per-
sonal. But their various and varying activities
ended by contributing . vast machinery of social
service. That Is what mean when refer to
the controlling logic of events under our system
Of government 1t looks as II 1t made progress
inevitable. even though at times it was hating.
"It Is most vital that scientific large-scale
production In industry, together with changed
conditions Of human relationship, has created q
new Industrial leadership Of remarkable type.
To-day, with few exceptions, individuals do
not own and operate big businesses Ownership
Il widely distributed and management Is in the
hands Of experts, most Of whom have risen from
the ranks. They represent not one side, but all
sides Of industry.
Keep Ahead Of Public Opinion.
'"That is one great reason why today. when
we examine the conduct Of any great corpora
ton we fnd It's management ever evolving pol
icies that link 1t more and more closely to its
employees, and they to it. 1t is exemplihcation
Of the interdependence Of capital and labor In
It's efforts to protect and promote the interests
of the workers, even though the purpose be
merely economic, management moves ahead, even
Of public opinion. The laws Of the land
not more effective guarantees Of the welfare Of
the worker than Is this enlightened attitude.
THE head Of great corporation thus becomes
. servant of the public His responsibilities ex-
tend beyond the organization which is his par
ticuar concern. His abilities-the abilities Of the
statesman as well as the business executive
must be available for the promotion Of the COM
mon interest.
1T Is one reason for confidence In our future"

Fascists List 100000
Italians Living Abroad

Amid such remarkable generaliZa-
tons as, for example, To-day, despite
the myth Of pan-Europa and disarma-
ment lies, Europe's only enlightenment
comes from Rome" a report on Fascist
foreign policy which recently was dis
tributed in the Chamber contains some
interesting data on FaScists abroad. At
present out Of 100000 Italians living
abroad only 10000 are inscribed in the
local Hctor organizations. The report
says, however. that all these Blackshirts
have now been brought under the i'm
mediate direction Of local Italian con-
suls. Also the governments emigra-
ton problem is discussed and the latest
accepted policy seems to insist for lin
tied and temporary emigration to the
East. There is no emigration worth
speaking Of in Italy any longer. One
Of the main reasons for this is because
the financial regulations to be complied
with before passport is issued are too
severe for the average native who wants
to leave home.

Nah Jong Now Popular
In Japanese Society

Nah jcng has started an invasion
of Japan which has all the police Of
ficials Of Toxic worried because there
are no regulations on the books which
can be used to control this game
Japanese law is very hard on all sorts
of gambling, but because Of the fact
that the Chinese game Is played in
private homes and clubs" the au-
thorities find themselves up against
a serious problem in public morals.
Salaried workers of the middle class
and their families are those who have
taken up the fashion Of pung and
show, and many are the games which
60 on until the break Of day. A
member OF the Japan Nah Jong Fed
Grafton denies that there is any great
amount of gambling connected With
the came as 1t is played here, insist
ing that the get-togethers around the
tiles are purely in spirit of sport.
There are now 800 nah jong clubs in
Toxic where an average Of $4,000 per-
sons gather every day TO play the
game Many pool halls have found
that they can make more money by
investing in nah jong sets than with
their felt-covered tables and are
switching to the former business. All
this is the source of one more worry
to the police, who are trying to keep
out all foreign influences thought TO
be harmful to the country.
