BLINDNESS Of
BUSINESS
Chicago Banker Tells Members
of International Chamber
Industry Made BIunders

America will stabilize its eco
omic structure when-and only
when-industry begins to take
stock of itself in FLUSH times
and trims sail against elimina-
ton of artificial economic stimu-
liant responsible for booms, Mel.
vim A. Traylor, president of the
First National Bank of Chicago,
told the International Chamber
of Commerce today.
He presented q comprehensive
study of world economic condi-
tiOnS, in which he blamed tOday's
depression on failure of industry
to look ahead during the post
war boom.
Hits Margin Buying
He urged elimination of floor
trading on the Stock Exchange"
margin buying and the daily call
money rate as steps which would
be productive of much good in a
move to set the world back on
its feet.
Floor stock trading, he said,
had most of the characteristics Of
plain craps shooting" and mar.
gin buying, except for accounts Of
$4,000 or more, is, he added, OBJ
viouSly not move to acquire a
sound investment"
Every factor active and obvious
in 1920 and 1921 pointed to a
subsequent drop in world buying
power, Traylor said, but yet bust.
ness steamed ahead, refusing to
recognize the obvious, and the de-
preston of today is only natural
result.
Time for Change
The time to make readiuSt.
ments, he warned, is during the
boom period, not when business
is down in the valleys"
Little has been done in this
direction in the past, and un.
less we change our policy in
the future, we may not hope
for that stability of industry
which everyone processes to be-
lieve so essential to our eco
nOmic and social weII-being.
Il cannot escape the COnClu-
sion that the dawn of the pres
ent situation broke over the
world in July, 1914, and it
came not from ignorance but
because of a complete break
down of world political sanity.
When we emerged from the war
and the first readjuStment pc
riOd Of 1920 and 1921, we had
an industrial plant capable of
supplying the SatiSfiable wants
of our population based upon
the current income, which was
exceedingly high in relation to
former period.
Full Steam Ahead
"The sea was smooth the
breeze favorable, and the direc,
tions were full steam ahead.
Then it was that we lacked
foresight and a plan. Business
leadership then. had it read
the barometer properly, should
have noted the storm that was
gathering and trimmed sail
accordingly, but ambition for
place, power and profit blinded
leadership to the dangers
ahead and prevented the prepa-
ration of a safe. harbOr against
the hour of storm.
But the facts were fully ig-
nOred. Larger and larger de-
mands were made upon capital
to finance plant and technO-
logical improvements until we
find millions upon millions Of
idle capital investment with
its consequent heavy charge
and with little likelihood Of
early utilization in a manner

"He said he had q friend
who had a girl friend, Jean
Murray, and that 1 could live
with Jean until I obtained a
position. 1 met Jean and we
went living together. That's
all there was to it. I felt that
as soon as 1 could get on my
feet financially, could devote
my time to completing q short

United Press Sports Editor

NEW YORK, Feb. II. U.P)-CarI
Coan, 19-year -old junior at the
University of Pennsylvania, was in
the top flight of Olympic team con-
tenders today by virtue of thrill
ling victory scored over Ray Con-
ger premier United States miller. in
the annual New York A. G. games
last night.
Coan had to come within one sec
ond of the world record of four min
utes, II seconds, to best Conger and
his other rivals in the mile run.
Conger had announced his inten-
ton of breaking the record, which
is held jointly by PaaVo NuImi, vet
eran Finnish distance runner, and
the indomitable Joie Ray.
Conger loafed back in third posi-
ton for half the distance, then took
the lead, but could not stave off
the last lap dash made by young
Coan. Conger broke his stride 100
yards from the finish to take third
place, one pace behind Gene Venzke
of the Swedish American A. c.
Coan, incidentally, is a protege
of Lawson Robertson, head coach
OF track at the University of Penn
sylvania and also chief coach OF
the United States Olympic track
and field team of 1882.
The defeat for Conger was his
first in l3 starts at one mile over
a period of three years.
Russell Chapman, star Bates COL
lege runner, won the second feature,
the half mile run. He bested an
international field which included
Sera Martin of France, Phil Ed
wards of Canada and Dr. Paul Mar
tin of Switzerland. Martin finished
second and Edwards third. DR..
Martin was a poor fifth and last.
Chapman's time was one minute
80 AS seconds.
