the demands of the population in mind,
he said, the question of what is the
best rate of growth of capital invest
ment in productive equipment is i'm
portant.
Roper then turned to a field with
which he is more familiar-that of
finance. He showed that the Ameri-
can internal long-term debt which was
s37, 000, 000, 900 in 1914 had grown to
s72, 900, 000, 900 in 1920 and scared to
1884, 00, 900 900 in 1929. He asked
whether we had "mortgaged the fu-
ture too rapidly-that is to say, at a
more rapid rate than can be adequate
ly absorbed and amortized by increas-
es in current income"
s#*
Just what Roper is trying to get
organized business to do, to strength
en- the weakened structure of competi-
tive capitalism, he did not frankly di-
vulge. His further questions on debt
amortization, however, seemed to sug-
gest that the vast amounts of watered
securities issued by the Wall Street
buccaneers in the past two decades
should be reduced through payment
of bonds and by retirement of stock
by purchase. This would mean, for a
long period, a continuation of high
payment to capital, and low payment
to labor, from the product of indus
try. One cannot have his economic
cake and eat it too. If recovery from
the economic collapse is to be achiev-
ed, capital must go on hard rations
for several years. Roper tells his
business council that perhaps capital
should take the former generous ra-
ton, and lock up a good proportion of
it for a time of need.
His business magnates %applauded
Roper. They selected Gerard Swope,
president of Mr.. Morgan's General
Electric, as chairman of heir perma-
nent executive committee. They
placed on that committee also Henry
l. Hartman, utilities magnate, presi-
dent of the U. S. Chamber of Com
merce; Austin Finch, Of the Thomas

ers struck against starvation wages;
R. E. Wood, head of Sears, Roebuck

Association of Credit Men, and E. c..
