watches merchants, lawyers, doctors and what
not who are elected to public office, proceed
to take over the management of the railroads
without a dollar of investment on their part,
without, IN most cases, the slightest know
ledge of railroad operations, and without the
public and the investments of millions of cit
liens in railroad property. The net result to-
day, after a generation of such political man.
agement of the railroads, is that they face
bankruptcy.
The average citizen does not realize this.
His railroad service is still uninterrupted.
The railroad worker won't believe that such n
catastrophe could happen. But unless our
political appointees IN regulatory positions,
are allowed more liberty in running the rail-
roads, we will find ourselves without railroad
transportation such as we have been used to,
OF with some form of government ownership
that will saddle us with debts that will make
the present federal dificit look like chicken
feed. Railroad employees will find themselves
working for the government and, instead of
dealing with railroad arrangements they will
have to deal with congress- and state legisla-
lures, thus hamstringing their freedom to
strike or negotiate regarding grievances
they will find themselves on a par with sailors
soldiers, and postal employees in securing con-
sidera ion-Their hands will be tied-you
don't strike against the government
It's high time the average citizen and
worker not only thought about the railroads
situation, but demanded that practical relief
be given them, and that the destructive type
of one sided regulation to which they have
been subjected, be changed to more honest
and fair methods.

DETROIT BANK.
III AS STARTED
Jon GOTH YEAR
Oldest State Bank
Has Weathered
All Crise 9

Entering its ninetieth year
March 3, 1888, The Detroit Bank
received congratulations from De-
troli business men for its long and
successful history. With a total OF
more than 100000 commercial and
savings accounts the bank is now
established as the 42nd largest in
the United States and one OF the
100 largest in the English speaking
world.
James II. Doherty. vice president
who will shortly complete his
fftieth year in the banks service
commented on the consistent man
agement policy of the bank during
It's entire history THE same set OF
seven basic principles for bank
operation which were formulated
by the original group of trustees in
1919 have been strictly adhered 10
by every administration since
that time and form the backbone
)f the banks conservative policy
oday. pointed out Doherty. THE
essence of these principles is he
continued. that because the bank
Ell is responsible not only to de-
positors and stockholders but To
the entire community as we'll. he
has less freedom of action than the
manager Of any other kind of pri-
vate business. Every act and de-
cision must be considered in the
light Of its effect on the safety and
economic life OF the bank deposit
tors and of the public in general.
This leaves no room for expert
mentation in the bankers business
philosophy
The Detroit Bank was founded
as The Detroit Savings Fund In
stitute in lS49 with Elon Farms
worth, Michigan's first chancellor
as its president. It's name changed
TO The Detroit Savings Bank in
1871 and the present name was
adopted in 1886. AS the Oldest bank
IN Michigan II has weathered the
major financial crises in 1857,
1873. 1898. 1907, 1908 and many
minor ones. During it's history the
bank has had only seven presi-
dents. whose average tenure has
been fourteen years. The Detroit
Bank with its 20 convenient neigh
borhood branches has always re-
tanned its own identity without
other institutions and has always
operated strictly as q bank

Ii hardly seems necessary TO
point out the danger OF driving an

ing. At one time il may have been
considered smart TO drive while
intoxicated. The smart thing TO do
nowadays. however. is 10 pass up
all drinking If you are planning on
driving
Most everyone agrees that even
small quantity of liquor blurs the
mental faculties. dulls the senses
generally, and slows down ones
reaction time Yet. strangely
enough liquor often exhilarates
the driver with false sense of
security and confidence in his driv-
ing ability This makes the drink
ing driver menace to the public
and his own worst enemy
The tipsy driver who Is invoiv-
ed in an accident nearly Away
gets the worst OF II in court.
Judges forgive much but the
drunken driver usually is given
scant consideration. regardless OF
where the blame really lies.
The motorist who goes in Tor
drinking should travel in tax
He will be much better off in the
