SOCIAL.MINDERNESS PAYS
DIVIDENDS Fl

Honesty is the best policy"
Crime doesn't pay"
Virtue is its own reward"
These maxims long since have
been graduated into the category OF
truisms, universally accepted. as in
controvertible. But consider this
one:
"Social-mindedness in industry
pays stockholder profits"
This expression of a social concept
that frankly admits selfish benefits
should not detract from the high
mindedness of the broad program
that is behind it. No one will be-
grudge the reaping of rewards from
a sound social philosophy effective
ly promulgated.
This new maxim comes from one
who should know whereof he IS
speaking-Paul Garrett, director of
public relations of General Motors.
His more complete expression on the
subject was: 1T will be through a
greater degree of social-mindedness
that industry can best expand its OPP
portunities to serve people and pay
stockholder profits. Previously, pure
ly economic considerations too often

easily by joining the effort of or
ganized industry to make this a real
June Dairy Month. The plan is easy,
nourishing and inexpensive. All one
needs to do is to take one extra milk
drink every third day in June. lnas-
much as milk rates at the very top
of all food values the June Dairy
Month should go across" Thomas
II. McInnerney. president of the Ma
tional Dairy Products Corporation
has furnished data showing that the
dairy farmers cash receipts will
mount million dollars with the
measure of support and cooperation
outlined above. He says that "the
current industry-wide milk and dairy
products hJune sales drive is an out
standing example of the advantages
of cooperation between industry and
agriculture" and adds that "if organ
lied business can sell more milk for
dairy farmers. dairy farmers in turn
will have tmore income to buy more
of the products of industry"
II appears that an increase i'm sales
volume of milk is almost immediate
ly reflected in larger farm income.
For instance. if city people averaged
only one extra milk shake every third
day during June. this added milk con-
sumption would mean an extra five
million dollars of purchasing power
IN the hands of dairy farmers by the
middle of July.
An average of ten extra milk
drinks a month is very moderate
way of cooperation. and inasmuch as
the nations major distributing or
ganizations are giving outstanding
support to Dairy Month it looks as
though the dairy farmers will get
the five million.
Not only are thousands of chain
and independent stores pushing the
sale of milk and dairy products be-
hind their counters" Mr.. McInnerney
informs us. but also says that oil.
tire. apparel and many other large
business organizations in no way
connected with foodstuffs are also
donating valuable display space and
ado time to the cause of larger milk
consumption and more farm prosper

ISOLATIONISTS AND
INTERNATIONALISTS

The reaction of the American peo-
pie to European war threats gives
additional proof that they are poll
tfcal isolatiOnists. Almost as a unit
they want to keep out of Europe's
quarrel. But at the same time. in
the same breath even, they EXPRESS
approval of economic International
ism.
Wars" they say. ARE one thing.
So are political beliefs and practices.
Let the people of Germany be nazis,
/ of Italy fascist. of Russian commu-
nistic. and of Mexico a combination
I of the worst quality of all three of
these PHILOSOPHERS if they wish. And
let them fight over it. If they want
/ to. That's their business. But whe-
ther they fight or not, we want to do
a little business with them"
Thi sis all very well on the face
of IT but any business dealings we
have with any such nations will be
conducted by American citizens
either as individuals or acting as
corporations. Inevitably these AM
erican citizens will be gypped by
the outlaw nations What will Uncle
Sam do when they are gypped? Will
he take ii lying down or will he de-
mand protection for his nationals as
provided by the principles OF inter-
national law?
The United Mexican rela-
tiOns today provide a perfect illus
tration of the unwOrkability of the

nationalist combination. On March

products to Mexico along with the
owners of the oil properties have
suffered great losses According to a
Department of Commerce report

The record further shows that
Mexico without legal or ethical right !
cOnfiscated hundreds of millions of
dollars worth of properties owned .
by Americans 1t shows further that .
when she did this Uncle Sam turned /
the other cheek which Mexico also /
slapped as is revealed by the drop
in sales of American manufactured
products in Mexican markets. Per-
haps no perfect political economic
basis can be worked out between ma
tions. Certainly if political protec-
tion is denied economic protection
will not exist.
Secretary of State Hull expressed
in his note to Mexico on August %.
1888. his convictions on this point
when he said:
1t seems to the Govern
ment of the United States a conten-
ton alien to the history, the spirit
and the ideals of democracy as prac-
ticed throughout the Independent
life of all the nations of this conti-
nent

Fourth. then" the General Motors
public relations director asserted,
1--WE find ourselves in an era appar-
emily where social values rank with
economic valuesffi where HOW a
thing is done has assumed equal i'm
portance with WHAT is done.
1T is of the essence Of public re-
lations-and certainly this brings
the subject down out of the academic
reafm-that industry must not only
interpret itself in terms of others.
but must operate broadly in their in
terest. A sound public relations pro-
gram has its basis in sound manage

ment practices. II must provide ac-
tual, measurable benefits for en-
ployees, for the community. for sup
pliers, for customers. Only thus can

SnenlIing In Politics

In few days the fiscal year will
close with a deficit around S3.400.-
600 900. This gives us deficit for the
ninth consecutive year. The tenth
year. which will soon begin. is ex-
pected to also give us a deficit close
to the figure Just mentioned. AL
though the business of returning to
balanced budget is more serious
than ever, no steps have yet been
taken to do so. Instead. the admins
tration is working out new plans to
spend more money and initiate the
currency The President has made
some cuts in expenditures, but at the
same time he has found other pro
jects which cost more than the
amount saved Government spend
ing has reached point where it has
to put on the brakes or else put the
monetary system in very difficult
position.

II has come TO a point where pri-
VatC industry must compete with the
Federal Government. Since the Gov
ernment has come into the utility
field and the investors are in danger
o: losing their investments in private
utility companies. il is getting more
and more difficult to obtain private
capital. because there are very few
people who will invest in business
they know that the Government is
going to compete with. If the Gov
Ci nment has a right to compete with
the utilities today. why won't they
compete with other industries in the
near future? Business is now in a
tight spot where it does not know
whether TO expand and spend money.
or whether to hold tight and wait for
further developments. Business
doesn't know at which time Govern
ment will encroach upon their inter
ests. Not only does the Federal Gov
ernment compete with Business, but
it taxes them so heavily. then uses
their funds to compete with them.

which modern industry has evolved;
the financial era-acquisition OF cap

War period; the distribution era
developments in merchandising and

TRAINING FOR TODAY

Twenty years ago a few industrial
workers in Flint. Michigan. were
given the opportunity TO learn how
to fit themselves for positions of re-

for handful of workers. that small
group today has been developed into

adopted the theme '"Training for To-
| day and for New Horizons of TOmOr-
row" The aptness of that theme can
he judged by the records of General
Motors Institute.
In the past 20 years, more than
$4,000 men and women have helped
. themselves to better things through
spare-time study at the Institute.
More than 1900 men and women
were benefited by training central

receiving more than one million man
hours of instruction. Ninety-three
instructors make up the Institutes
faculty.
Nearly 5000 young men have been
trained for service departments of
General Motors dealers throughout
the world. Every state in the Union,
six provinces of Canada and 26 for
eign countries have sent men to the
Institute for training. with the result
that Institute-trained men are found
in every division of General Motors
Corporation.

that continued Industrial progress
depends upon progress in the devel-
opment of men. General Motors In

training men TO take their places as

Poultry and Egg Industry

The poultry and egg industry once
more is expanding. Production of
chickens was increased in 1898. and
further increase is in progress this
year. Production of eggs declined
slightly in 1898. but the output dur
ing the current year 1899 will prob
ably equal or exceed that of 1897
On January last there were approx
imately 413,000,00O chickens on
farms. On January next there may
be more than 100000. 900. During the
past Is years the largest number of
chickens on farms was 475,000.000
in 1928, and the smallest was 3S7.-
900 900 in 1898. But as feed was more
plentiful during 1888 there was an
increase of about per cent in the

All Club activity by using the name

or in other ways that have no con-

President more discretion in Foreign

er twenty signatures opposing the
