POOR BUSINESS MANAGEMENT

When business fails with no APP
parent direct cause for the failure, its col
lapse is blamed on poor management. The
executive officers and the board of direc4
tors are held responsible.
In the case of nation, the same con-
illusions must be reached.
In a business corporation, the man.
agement is supposed to see and recognize
the danger signals as they appear. In the
nation, the same alertness is to be ex-
pected.
A lack of foresight on the part of the
administration of nations affairs must
be blamed for such collapse as we have
experienced.
1t is no excuse that the rest of the
world has experienced similar collapse.
There were reasons for the failure of other
nations.
Our own country need not have been
dragged down in the world depression had
sufficient foresight been exercised.

IS YEARS AGO

Thirty-five years ago this month
events were moving rapidly toward that
short but spirited struggle known to his
tory as the Spanish American War, which
freed Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines
from Spanish misrule.
American feeling was running high
against Spanish atrocities in Cuba, when
the battleship Maine was blown up in Ha-
vana harbor on February Is, 1898, killing
266 Officers and men. On April / Presi-
dent Mckinley told congress that in the
name of humanity and civilization the war
being Waged against the Cubans by the
Spaniards must stop. On April 10 con
gress demanded that Spain Withdraw
from Cuba, and authorized the use of
American land and sea forces to accom-
plish this result. War officially began on
April Fl.
Regular Army and National Guard
troops were modified at Key West, Tampa,
Mobile and other southern points; Dewey's
fleet was ordered from Hong Kong to de-
stroy the Spanish fleet at Manila; Samp-
son and Schley prepared to meet Cervera's
Spanish fleet which was on its way to West
Indian waters from Cape Verde Islands.
The end of April thus saw the stage
set for action. On May / Dewey easily
defeated the Spanish fleet in Manila Bay;
on July the main assault on Santiago by
Skaters Army began; on July Cervera's
fleet was destroyed while trying to escape
from Santiago harbor, and the Spanish
land forces at Santiago surrendered to
Shafter on July IT. Aside from minor en-
gagements in Porto Rico, the fall of San
tiago surrendered to Shafter on July II.
Aside from minor engagements in Porto
Rico, the fall of Santiago virtually ended
SPANS resistance, hostilities being for
mally ended by the protocol of August ID.
Peace was declared through the
Treaty of Paris, signed on December 10,
1898, and later ratified by both nations,
whereby Spain acknowledged Cubas in
dependence, coded Porto Rico to the
United States and received twenty million
dollars for the Philippines.
These are the high spots in a brief
but dramatic war which had far-reaching
consequences for many millions of people
and established the United States as
great world power.

DICTATOR HITLER

people to give his government trial of
four years. Relationships, in the first
place, are never maintained by public
