Washington Letter ByLE Jones

How To Get Ahead In Business
The more we read business sue
cess stories in newspapers, the
more convinced we are that there
is some major secret behind each
success.
Probably the main secret in
wolves service. In other words, the
growth of an industry or business
depends chiefly on how we'll it
serves the public.
Take, for instance, the home ap-
pliance field. The many home ap-
pliances have almost revolution
lied our hOmemaking habits. Across
the nation these products save
millions Of hours of hard, tiring
work every day. They add that
much more time for doing other
things we would rather do.
The electric vacuum cleaner is
a leading example. No longer do
heavy rugs need to be taken out
doors to have the dirt beaten or
shaken out Of them. In fact, the
historic spring house-cleaning up
roar is beginning to get out of date.
With light, scientific machinery,
the home can be kept clean, bright,
and healthful the year around. Mo
ther has more free time and fewer
backaches. And father and the chill
dren share in a hOmemaking pic
ture in which a large part of the
is erased.
Yet this revolution in homemak-
ing is a fairly recent one. For ex-
ample, the pioneer vacuum manu-
facturer, built its first cleaner in
1908 but took Is years to produce
its first million.
Now We get the startling news
thai it turns out more than a mil
lion cleaners in a Tc@7. ats 10 mil
lionth cleaner just recently came
on the assembly line.
To develop a successful business.
many factors are needed-research
engineering, efficient production,
financing, selling, advertising, and
alert progressive MANAGEMENT.
Then there are such ingredients as

FUNDAMENTAL SECURITY

War and threat of war undermines character
From security standpoint, certain character traits
such as honesty, for instance are fundamental for
prosperous industry commerce and Investments
Hence, our churches schools and homes try to in
still character assets into our youth Security in
peacetime depends primarily upon character and
the deveOpmet of the very factors of life which
military service tends to destroy.
We criticize today the criminal underworld which
has been uncovered b. the Kefauver Crime Commit
tee. We deplore the exposures which Fulbrights
Committee has shown up in connection. with the
r. F. c. and other Government agencies We hear
that Washington is honeycombed with graft and in
efficiency We wonder what the reason may be- If
we will turn back the pages of history we will find
that the conditions followed the Mexican, Civil
Spanish-American and World War l. The wretched
conditions today are due to the breaking down OF
character, caused by World War H.
WHAT TO INVEST in
For security, locate where you are not liable to
be bombed Buy place in some small agricultural
community go miles from vulnerable city Use this
as summer place and a protection Build up
bank deposits in medum-sized, safe cities for re-
investment during the next panic The nations
banking situation a whole is excellent and YOU
can safely buy stock in your local bank if it Is safe
from bombing Good common stocks Of companies
SAFE from bombing should be good investments for
the long pull, although they will huctuate with gem
eral business conditions In the case Of corporate
bonds or preferred stocks. you should buy only
"convertibles"
The most important need for security is to in
vest IN good health and character-together with a
family of well-educated and spirtualIy-minded chill
dren See that your children are taught not only
industry honesty and law-abidance but also sound
religious faith which will stand BY them when
trouble comes. Furthermore train them for some
specific line Of work. such as the medical engineer
ing and business professions. the essential trades
In other words invest in education.

character, judgment, and plain
hard work. But along with these
there must be a good product, pro-
duced economically so as to be
within the public's reach, and above
all, something which serves the
people exceedingly well.
Now, Let's Get On With Victory!
If the Macarthur Investigation
were to be stopped cold in it's
tracks, as it might we'll be most
any day, it would seem that both
the investigation and it's spectacu-
lar cause have served their histor-
ic purpose.
President TTuman's recent plea
for the prayers of the people, and
Senator Taft's demand for "a more
aggressive war in Korea along the
line of Macarthur program" may
both be fulfilled.
For 1t is now apparent that the
principle Of ''hOt pursuit" into the
enemy's air bases and staging areas
that Macarthur begged for, will
be adopted if, as and when those
400 new Russian jets go into ac-
tion. Protests against UN members
supplying strategic materials to
their own enemy have accomplish
ed substantially the blockade of
China that Macarthur asked. The
Administration has backed into
agreement with Macarthur on the
security Of FOrmOsa. And while
General Marshall, on the stand, de-
preciated the value of Chang Kai-
shek's troops, we do not recall that
any authoritative voice has said
they would not be used.
We can not think of much else
that Macarthur asked for, except
assurances that Red China would
not be admitted to the UN-which
assurances the American people
have now been given-and the mat
ter of military raids on the China
mainland. To have gained all his
Obiectives save this last one would

StOrm.ClOuds Over Iowa


Because she refused to leave her
two little boys, 8 and 5, at home
alone uncared for, over an uncer-
tain period of days and night, Mrs
Jeanette Watson, of Waterloo, To-
wa, is under sentence of six months
In the State Woman's RefOrmatOry.
District Judge Shannon B. Charl-
ton imposed the sentence for con-
tempt of court, after Mrs. Watson
allowed herself to be accepted on
a murder jury, and then discovered
she would not be allowed to go
home until a verdict was rendered.
But she had not been sworn in
as a juror.
After 26 hours Of frantic worry
about her little sons, Mrs. Watson
was freed on $500 bail. The Iowa
State Supreme Court will hear her
appeal next September!
All OF which adds up to a con-
cept of Justice that Iowans do not
go for. The heat is on Governor
Beardsley, but a pardon for Mrs.
Watson would hardly set things
right.

'THE PROCESS OF DEATH"

Thirty years ago Woodrow Wilson, pres

and profound student of government, said
The history of liberty is the history Of the
limitation of governmental power, not the
increase OF it. When we resist the concen

OF death, because concentration of power is
what always precedes the destruction Of bT-
man liberties" In the ensuing so wears Ua
