HOW THEY STARTED

In recent editorial in Nations Bust
ness, Merle Thorpe tells of the origins of
a number of today's so-called economic
royalists,' and points out that most of the
high executives in American business and
industrial life came from humble homes
He says:
''Whence came this new captain of
great steel company? From coal miners
hut Where did economic autOcracy GO
the other day to get the new president of
a great packing company? An office boy
20 years ago.
He then recalls that more than 100
presidents of our biggest railroads came
up from the ranks of telegraphers, track
walkers, transit carriers, clerks, and other
small jobs Half of New sYork's bankers
were born IN the Middle West, and most
of them on farms. -
All the presidents of Bell Telephone
companies began at'the bottom. none earn
ing as much as $50 week in the begin
ming. And taking the heads of the three
greatest motor companies, President Knud-
sen of General Motors landed as a poor
immigrant lad in New York at the age of
18, Henry Ford was an itinerant watch
and clock repairer, and Walter Chrysler
was a mechanic in a railroad shop in
Kansas
But it is not recorded that any of these
men reached their present eninence by
working Only 80 hours a week.

GOOD NEWS, WE HOPE

The worst of the business recession is
passing, according to John N Biggers,
who directed the recently concluded I'M
employment census Mr. Biggers says,
We are scraping along the bottom of the
recession now we will soon see signs
of improvement, at least in the consumer
industries
The Cleveland business man believes
that the recession was caused largely by
the fact that industries built up large
stocks of goods early last year and his
basis for expecting improvement lies in the
belief that consumer demand has largely
exhausted the supplies This, of course,
means that new goods must be manu-
featured
We have no idea whether Mr. Big
gers knows anything about the recession
or not. In view of the high per centage
of error that logged the prophets of the
depression, when prosperity played them
a dirty trick by staying around the cor
ner," we are inclined to wait and see what
happens.
This doesn't mean that Mr. Biggers'
views are not encouraging. He is an
eminently successful business man. What
he thinks is vastly more important, on the
basis of probable knowledge of conditions,
than any number of predictions by poll
ticians and editors Besides, he may be
right; it is not possible for all the business
leaders to be wrong all the time.

DEATH BEGINS AT 40

Two million booklets with the strik-

pany. being an analysis of traffic acct
dents during 1887.
The title doesn't mean that death be-
gins at 40 years of age, but at 40 miles an
hour. 1t is pointed out. however, that 40
miles an hour is much too fast in many
cases. To quote a paragraph.
There are times. as in heavy traffic
or in heavy fog, when 80 miles an hour IS
suicidal: other times when 80 miles an
hour seems reasonable. Every driver
should know that if he does have an acct
dent it is more likely to mean death if he
IS going fast

10000 deaths and 1921. 900 injuries in

The fast-moving current prevents
a large proportion Of the eggs from
being fertilized, while another goodly
portion becomes food for other trout.
1t is during this spawning season
that the bureaus Yellowstone statlon
does its important work of conserva-
ton.
Tributary streams are selected and
traps constructed at their mouths
into which the trout pass on their
upstream journey. In this way,
hundreds are caught daily, and before
these weirs become overcrowded, the
fish are sorted, the eggs taken and
fertilized, and they are then released
unharmed. After the eggs are washed,
they are placed in small barrels to
water-harden, and within a few hours
are carried by launch to the hatchery,
placed on trays and kept in running
water at the proper temperature. This

trast to the usual method of artificial
propagation. where special brood-stock
is kept at the hatcheries and subjected
to various means of scientific feeding
and selective breeding.
MOST of these traps are at various
points along the shore of Yellow
stone Lake, with nearby substations
as living quarters for men employed
in tending the traps These stations
are visited daily by launch, regardless
OF weather, to gather up the eggs.
Quite often these traps are found by
bears. and what grizzly can do to
a trap in few minutes often takes
couple or more days to repair. In
contrast to the black bears that
usually climb in with little damage
to the structures, but much damage
to the fish, killing and mutilating
many times what they eat, the highly
intelligent grizzly sees what he wants,
rips his way in faster than a man
could with a crowbar, kills just what
he wishes to eat and leaves only the
heads as an exact tally of his appetite.
In Yellowstone Park he has found a
sanctuary, and he makes the most of 1t.
Last year the Bureau of Fisheries
took more than 40,000,000 wild eggs
In Yellowstone. Seventy per cent of
these were Matched, brought to fin
gerling size and replanted in the wa
ters Of the park: The remaining 80
per cent were brought to the eyed"
stage and shipped to other Western
States to be Matched and planted in
their streams. BY this method the
percentage of loss is slight.
zach year this important conserva-
ton is carried forward. The re-
suits are most gratifying, for after
years of careful observation by ex-
perts, no decrease has been noticed
in the numbers of trout living in the
waters of Yellowstone Park, while
the number Of visitors fishing in the
park increases year by year. Further
more, all the fishing goes on during

and the Coast Guard Academy, where
young men are trained to become
Officers Well known, too, are the
War College at Washington and the
Naval War College at Newport, where
promising officers are given advanced
courses in the now highly scientific
art of war.
In addition to these institutions are
many others, in all parts of the coun-
try, where enlisted men as we'll as
officers are taught an amazing array
of subjects, most of which are useful
In times of peace as we'll as in times
OF war.
To begin at the beginning, and
with the Army, whose school system
was established back in, 1881 at the
Infantry and Cavalry School at Fort
Leavenworth, Kans. From this has
grown the military educational system
which includes technical school for
every branch of service, leading to
the Command and General Staff
School and eliminating in the Army
War College. Related to these schools
is post school system where those
Junior officers who have not been
graduated from the service schools
are required to qualify in the basic
elements of their branch.
HE educational system is extended
to enlisted men with special
hro rnh erbooIe uhere celootoJ ,,an
are sent for advanced training and
with post schools for the training of
non-commissioned officers and Sc
lected privates in the duties of nom
CONS and in such subjects as disci-
pline, department. administration and
soldierly technique
But that doesn't call the roll of the
Army's schools by any manner of
means.
In addition to the branch schools
there are technical schools for the
training of men in special trades,
such as radio, telegraph, telephone and
signal communications, aviation me-
chanics, baking and cooking, horse
Ehoeing, saddlery and veterinary med
icine, automotive maintenance and
repair, clerical schools for administra-
tive military personnel and many
others.
1t is noteworthy that these schools
are valuable to the individual as well
as to the Army and to the country,
for through them man gets special
training which he can use when his
term of enlistment expires. The Army
and the same holds true for the
other branches of the service-thus is
in effect huge educational institu-
ton.
OF especial interest is the fact that
the Army makes ample provisions for
the training of enlisted men who want
to enter West Point In every corps
area and department there is a
school which prepares men for the
academy examinations. The great ma
jority of candidates trained by the
officers pass the preliminary exams.
It was Elihu Root who, in 1908.
brought about organization of the
Army War College, now recognized
as one of the great institutions of its
kind in the world Many officers seek
admission, but only a relatively small
number-the cream of the crop, so to
speak-are chosen. Those who are
ssaduated become eligible for the War
