EVER-PREsENT SHADOW

There ore few people in this coun-

II, for instance, you live in on adobe

But for 999 people out Of each 900,
fire is very reoI problem. 1t is an
ever-present problem - fire doesn't in
form you in odvonee where or when
it will strike. The shadow of fire turks
over every home and every factory, ~

NOT ONE, A MILLION
LEADERS NEEDED

In times OF stress and crisis, ieoder-
ship is everything.
The United Stotes needs leadership
NOT the leadership Of one man, to
which several European countries have
turned, tired and beaten by struggle
and complexity-but leadership in ev-
cry field. 1t is no longer enough for any
mon to be leoder simply in his own
fietd-the leader Of todoy must see the
relationship of his special field to the
whole, and oct accordingly
Nobody ever accused james Iru-
slow Adams of being wild radical. He
is q conservative business man turned
historian. Yet he believes thot the
American scheme Of things as living
men have known it is now being given
It's Lost chance.
In a recent article in "Borron's."
ADAMS appeals to business men to show
themselves again capable Of the leader
ship which once made them the heroes
of America. He sees a turn to the bust
ness man from the politician, especial
" since the defense drive has put SO
drect premium on efficiency These
{octors, 10 feels. have "eiven the bust
ness leaders new chance, and perhaps
their last. to prove their volue to the
oreot society and to provide for it that
leodogship and service without which no
class con permanently survive ;"
Business leaders must reolize.
Adams warns, that today "a high bust
ness position, as has been sold Of pub
lie office, is q public trust and not mere
" q wsIl-poid job" Business men like
Knudsen ond Stettinius who have given
Up welI-poying jobs to help their eoun-
try are merely one example, Adams
says; every business man must now de-
vote part OF his time, energy, ond
thought to the general welfare, for it
is at last reoIized that even well-poy-
ino business is of no value if the whole
country goes to smash.
l Whot Adams has so trenchontly
pointed out to business men is true, Of
course Of all men occupying positions
Of authority and influence. II is true
Of labor leaders, Of lawyers. Of finonc-
iers, or artists, Of all who WELD power
IN any form.
Is All are on trial today. All will be
Judged in the future by the degree to
which they have served society in gen.
erul.
