INDUSTRY THE
LIFE BLOOD

II you were TO try to build q brand
new city. how would you starts
This question was posed recently
by the general manager Of q large
industrial concern. His ansWar tells
story the truth Of which is evident
but the realization Of which prob
ably never occurs TO the average
person.
To begin with, It would be neces-
sary TO have an industry. The en-
ployees Of the industry would make
up the first citizens Of the new city.
Their first need would be shelter, so
building contractors, carpenters,
bricklayers and plumbers would be
requir ed. The new community could
not survive without grocery stores,
dry goods stores, restaurants and
other retail outlets, so many more
people would be attracted 70 the new
city TO I'LL their needs.
AS the city begins to take shape,
electricity, gas, water and sewage
systems would have 10 be establish
ed. Il would be necessary 20 admin
istrate the building Of streets, the FL
tratiOn Of water, police and fire pro-
lection, and other municipal SER
vices, leading 20 the creation Of city
government Doctors, dentists, cler-
gymen and lawyers would be need
ed In the growing community. Rail-
reads, buses. telegraph and tele-
bASae lines, a newspaper and other
services would attract more and
more people.
The industry which started the
growth OF the city would have to be
supplied with machinery, raw mate
risls, tools, dies, and so on. Other
industries would spring up TO supply
these needs. The more people COM
ing to the town, the more services
required, so more stores, more shoe
repair shops and more motion pic
ture theatres would move in.
The thriving city would demand
facilities. museums and
libraries, schools and school teach
ers, banks and bankers, radio sta
tons and talent
II the industry of which we have
been speaking happens to be the an-
tomobile industry, contributions far
beyond those already outlined would
be made Filling stations. highways
builders; garages, refreshment
stands and roadside services all
would expand with the increased use
Of the automobile. Miners and sup
pliers Of steel, ranchers who pro-
vide wool and leather, farmers who |
raise cotton or corn, manufacturers !
1f paint and hundreds Of others who |
ill needs Of the automobile makers
would benefit
Automobile dealers who sell the |
product, service managers who re-
pair It, and accessory manufacturers :,
who add Fefinements-all have a
ltake in the original industry.
The interdependenee OF these ac-
ivities on one another cannot be dis
,uted. but industry provides the life
blood.

AMERICAS CREDIT SYSTEM

One Of the troublesome questions
before Congress concerns our farm
credit system. A few years ago the
farmers paid between Az and 63k
Ger cent interest on their mortgages
held by Federal Land Banks. That
rate of interest in farm credit has
been gradually reduced until 1t is
now proposed, under what is known
as the JONES' -Bankhead bill, to dis
regard the dangers Of mixing sound
credit with relief and social prob
lens In order to place farm credit
under bureaucratic Government
lending and control. and to loan
money to the farmers at 8 per cent
interest. In defense of this change
Il Is pointed out that the Govern
ment is able to borrow money on
its longtime bonds at an even lower
rate of interest
In his resignation from the post of
Commissioner OF the Federal Land
Banks which he had occupied for
seven years, Albert s. Goss said in
a public statement that there was a
tendency, backed by the Administra-
ton, toward a type of so-called credit
in which personal responsibility Is
denied; that loans were TO be made
to everybody. with no adequate mar
gin OF safety provided, and that un-
der this scheme the Government
would be expected to pay the losses
whenever borrowers took the notion
to quit paying. He stated that the
Federal Land Banks had been lend
Ing money on the basis Of normal
values. under distressing farm con-
iitions prevailing during recent
Feara
Farm prices have been altogether
.oo low, and apparently Secretary OF
Agriculture Wallace's new theory Is

lres on defaultad loans, or interest, !

MAY
NOT ADJOURN

There is a growing conviction on
Capitol Hill in Washington that
Congress should remain in session
most Of the summer and face the
music. The legislators cannot dodge
the issues they have tied themselves
to in authorizing billions for prepar-
edness. Where's the money coming
from? Right now the Government
faces great responsibilities to the
country-so a new tax bill may be
patched up by Congress. The debt
Emit can be easily arranged new
law would fix all that.

AGAIN-JIMMY GOT 1T
tRew York World TeIesraml

Jimmy RooseVelt's papa had vii.
liam G. McAdoO appointed to the
$25. 900 job as head of the American
President Steamship Line.
And Mr.. McAdoO had the line give
its insurance business to Jimmy's
firm. Roosevelt & Sargent. Inc.
II you were to ask Jimmy's papa
why he selected Mr.. McAdOo, he
might say that he considered Mac"
the best Of all possible shipping Op-
orators. Maybe he is. Certainly he
was a man Of large experience in
other affairs-fOr instance he had
been a promoter. a corporation law
yer, a Secretary Of the Treasury. and
had boarded the Roosevelt band
wagon at Chicago at precisely the
right moment
If you were to ask Mr.. McAdoO
why he gaYej the insurance account
TO Jimmy's firm he might say that
Jimmy's firm writes the best of all
possible insurance policies II must
be a good policy to make Mr.. Nc
Adoo, whose headquarters are in
Chicago, go all the way to Boston,
headquarters Of Roosevelt & Sar-
gent, Inc.
OF course this is none Of our bus
mess, except for some slight indi-
rect interest deriving from the fact
that we are citizens and taxpayers
and the U. S. Government owns 80
per cent Of the common stock Of this
company and the RFC lent

contrary, II is quite obvious that the
Iiitleritcs are still convinced they
must keep the United States out Of

vent any hostile act that would draw
