Big Business Scored
By 0'Mahoney, Quinn
Before Executives

Concentration of economic pow
er in the hands of big business was
criticized yesterday by two speak
ers In a forum sponsored by the
Washington chapter OF the Asso-
citation of American Executives in
the Mayfower Hotel.
Senator O'Mahoney. Democrat.
Of Wyoming, long a foe of cartels
and advocate Of more economic
freedom, called anew for an ECO
nomic conference to write down
the power and authority Of giant
corporation" and to define "the
freedom of small business.
T. K. Quinn, head of a man
agement company and former vice
president of General Electric Co.,
declared firms formed since the
end Of the war are failing by "the
tens Of thousands" because of lack
Of free competition.
Mr.. Quinn said the small busi-
nessman feels he has to ask for
Government subsidies" and other
aid since there is no real compe-
tition between a tiger and a
mouse"
Cites National Drift.
Senator O'Mahoney said the re-
organization act now in confer
ence at the Capitol proves that
we are drifting away from legis-
Iative government to executive
government" in that the bill would
give the President reorganization
powers rather than Congress.
He predicted. however. that the
measure would pass, but warned
that 1--WE must make up our minds
whether we want government by
the experts or government by the
people"
Barrett Crandall Of the National
Council for Community Improve
nnent estimated that $29. .000. .000.-
900 had been spent on public hous-
ing by the United States, but the
figure was disputed by John M.
Carmody. former Federal Works
administrator now doing private
consultant work.

eral counsel Of the CIO, declared
that greater industrial strife has

Steel Industry Cited.
He cited the steel industry as
an example of this theory. In any
event, Mr.. Harris said. Legislation
cannot produce industrial har-
mony."

The decision to admit Israel

ian Cabinet. Reuters reported.
The report said that Premier Sir

that the invitation to attend the
meeting in Alexandria was ex-
tended not by Egypt but by U.N.

PLAIN TALK

Negro boys and girls had been
training for stenography and
bookkeeping in the high schools,
but they came only to Illustration
when they went to look for jobs
in offices. Joe Marx said we
give them equal education and
we owe them the equal right to
earn their hvings at the work we
have trained them to do.
The white girls in Joe Marks
office mightn't at first like hav-
ing colored girl among them.
But the way to do with preju-
dice was not to give in to it;
prejudice testers and grows be-
cause people are afraid to quarrel
with it. If the white girls could
meet and feIa an object of their
prejudice. maybe they would
come around to see that the
Negro stenographer was the same
kind of person as they. except for
the way her skin was tinted.
Joe Marx could feel exquisitely
Jewish as he went about to hire
a colored stenographer for his
office. The week before the girl
came, he brought to the office
speaker to give a speech to all
the office help on every Ameri-
cans right to equal opportunity.
It was on Lincoln'S birthday. The
speaker was Marshall Bragdon
who is executive secretary of the
Cincinnati Mayors Friendly Re-
lations Committee.
Three years have passed. It
worked out all right. Not just
that the Negro girl turned out to
be a capable stenosrapher. (She
was promoted to be the secretary
to the executive of one of the
Departmental That was the least.
What caused Joe Marx to exult
the more was the way the early
prejudice had dissolved in his
office. It had dissolved like some
foul infection in the fresh air and
sunlight. From becoming &C.
quainted with the Negro stenog-
rapher, the white girls had come
to respect her. There was no
one more popular in the office
than she.
The white girls had come to
the highest degree of social edu.
cation: They had learned to see
that every individual was to be
judged only by his own merit or
his own fault. This Negro Ste
nographer was a fine girl and
how could her color matter in the
least?
Joe Marx felt the STRINGS OF
prophet. His Jewish friends in
business must know about this.
AS Jews they. too. would under
stand that the highest duty OF a
Jew was to practice the ethical
creed Of his teaching. If the Jew
yearned for justice for his child
rem in employment, he must be
willing to render such justice
unto others.
Joe Marx thus wrote friends in
business. Negro stenographers
no longer are entirely absent
from business offices in cincin.
natl. -Four Jewish business
houses employ them-all friends
of Joe Marx who started them
toward that way of being Just
and Jewish.
Joe Marx isn't making the least
boast of his way Of being a Jew

in this area throughout the
season.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Oliver Spauld-
ing, membership secretary and
treasurer, reported the club al
ready has 5000 in life member
ships and hopes to reach the
$1,000 mark before the year is
up. Life memberships are 500
each.
Servicemen Lodged.
Mrs. william D. Chandler,
treasurer. reported that 1896
servicemen have been lodged at
the club since May and that for
lack Of accommodations, 216 had
to be referred elsewhere. She
also pointed out that S,054 meals
were served during this same
period.
Financially, the club canteen
has not Jared 50 well, according
to the canteen chairman, Mrs.
w. P. T. Hill. Even without the
added expense Of a manager, the
canteen operates at monthly
average deficit of $189, she re-
ported, because Of its uneven
patronage during the week. 1T
we could serve so persons q day,
We could break even," Mrs. Hill
declared.
The canteen was a popular
place yesterday, however. There
were so many reservations by
members wishing to see 1t after
the redecoration job it received
last summer. that few board
members had to bring their own
sandwiches.
Other business included the ac-
ceptance Of the resignation Of
Mrs. Brantz Mayer. the clubs
executive secretary, and the
election of Mrs. Richard Ellis to
succeed her. Mrs. John Goodell
recreation chairman. made q
special appeal for books, pointing
out that books walk out as fast
as we bring them in"
