Brides Gifted
Under 1924 Will

PORT ALLEN, La. - W.D -
More than 100 years ago, Louis
iana's first poet and the richest
man of his time left $4,000,
which he had earned peddling
pots and pans and trinkets al
plantation homes and Negro Ca
bins, in trust to provide dowries
for young people who had been
more fortunate in love than he.
The man was Julien Poydras,
whose romance had been blight
ed in France by the age-old GUS
tom Of dowrying, which pro-
vides that the brides family
shall give a considerable cash
sum or a piece of land to the
husband at the time Of marri-
age.
Yoydras' sweetheart was very
poor; her family could not af-
ford a dowry. And even though
the ardent sutton cared nothing
for the dowry, French custom
ruled against the match and the
marriage never took place.
Broken-hearted, he joined the
French Navy and never return
ed to his native land. He came
to America and found fame and
fortune in that New France
which became Louisiana.
This year FL brides of West
Baton Rouge Parish are eligible
for dowries arising from inter-
est on the original investments
as directed by the Frenchman' $
will in 1924.

Well. there's lot of room During the
war, thousands of businesses have had to
close. Only very few new ones have been
started. Today, there are approximately
6OO,OOO-fewer in operation than before Pearl
Harbor. Add to this the fact that there are
going to be billions in wartime savings to

spend and invest, and it would seem very
doubtful that one year. or two, will close the
door of opportunity.
On the other hand, almost all of Americas
economists agree that an interval of mass un-
employment is coming sometime after the
war. They disagree only as to when. If and
when it comes, all of the hazards of starting
business will be multiplied. The prospec-
tive businessman will do we'll to weigh his
timing carefully.
Servicemen, like my friend, who plan
to take advantage of the loan provision
in the CI Bill of Rights, can take as much
time, up to two years after their dis
charge, as they need before acting. In
fact they will be wise to take time to make
themselves good risks, because they must
seek the loans in the first place from banks
or other regular lending agencies, which aren't
likely to advance money for bad gamble
The governments participation is simply to
guarantee repayment of half the loan, up
to $1,000, if the borrower fails. This is done
subject to the approval of the loan by the
Veterans Administration.
The risk, whether it is your own money or
loan, begins with the choice of a venture.
Perhaps, for instance, you want to start
hotel. Well, the statistics indicate that hotels
are 40 times as risky, on the average, as the
manufacture of stone, clay and glass products.
Naturally, that doesn't mean that nobody
should start hotel; it does mean that you
should know what you are about

want to start. You have convinced yourself
that a filling station would be good risk for

while one few blocks away is morgue.
For the hasty and unwary, there is ter
rife risk of being victimized. The Better
Business Bureaus have records of over 800
schemes that are one-way roads to failure.

Even sound business, under sound manage
ment, will face real difficulties after the war.
Taxes, for one thing will remain high and will
take major slice out of the businessmans
financial hide. Heavy government regulation
price control, priorities, credit regulations,
wage controls - will also be with US for some
time.
On the other hand, government agencies
like the Smaller War Plants Corporation are
setting up plans to help the small business
man, present and prospective, veteran and
civilian Chambers of Commerce, and other
business associations are assembling advice.
This Test VIII Help
IT IS help that is going to be needed. Anyone
who starts business today without all the
advice and know-how he can get is almost
surely heading for trouble.
Just leaf through the catalogue of good
school of business administration. Or try this
test: 8.
I. Can you work out budget covering
such items as maintenance, labor, deprecia-
ton and other operating costs?
z. Do you know how to size up sales trends
and relate them to costs and markets?
;. Can you organize people, and get them
to work well with you?
4. Would you know just what to buy. and
when, and how to get prices for maximum
return?
s. Do you know bookkeeping? Does
profit -and-loss statement mean anything to
you?
6. Can you negotiate contracts?
7. Can you negotiate collective bargaining
agreements with unions?
8. Would you be able to meet the problems
of continuing credit and bank loans?
Anybody who can't give himself practi-
cally perfect score on this test had better
think twice before going into business for him
self at least until he learns these essentials.
But if you can start with hard-headed
appraisal of the CANDLES involved, and still
be confident and undiscouraged, more power
to you! And success! The End
