r ; .' BESl'ONSIBILITY OF BUSINESS LEADERS
One' of the fortunate developments of the last few years
is !tha' we are able nowadays to look' an extremely radical
idea in the" face without getting the jitteis. V
A case in point is the suggestion which Donald Richbeig
dropped before the Merchant Association of New York" in
hVs recent' speech there the suggestion that unless the
directors and executives of big business recognize their so
cial' resrn'sibllities, and act on them, they will presently lie
elected by the general public and not by the several stock
Holders. , ,
v. Here is a notion which would have earned a man the in
delible label of "bolshevik" if it had been voiced as recently
as six months ago. Today we are able to look at it calmly
and 'to see that'there is a lot of

to his ernplbyeV,. To be sure, they can't get at him if he fails
them. But their jobs, their bread and butter, their chances
to 4 something with their lives, rest entirely on him.
To these allied responsibilities we are now seeing the
necessity of adding a third responsibility to the public at
large. What the industrial executive does affects the whole
country, sooner or later. We are in his hands, and if he is
a fumbling incompetent we are apt to get dropped. Is
after all, so far-fetched to suggest that we ought to be able I
to exercise some control over him? I

The incompetent business man is just as much a parasite
on society as the incompetent politician, and society ought
to have the power to dispose of him. It would have been the
height, of radicalism to say that a year or so ago; today it is

(Continued from Page On)
That was why we asked for the map
and charts of the Lamson home and
the big picture ot Mrs. Lamson's body
In the tub. We wanted to bulltt,
our 'bathroom' as close as we could
to the one In the Lamson house. . . .
"Then all of us tried to fall out of
that tub in some way so that we
could hit our heads on a wash bowl
hard enough to .dash our bruins out.
I waa one of the chief actors and I
am black anrt blue all over from
falling In various ridiculous posi
tions." The article said members of the
Jury "practiced hitting" with the
length of pipe, the prosecution de
clared was the death weapon, and
concluded by "plain common senso"
that the fatal wounds could have
been inflicted with the instrument,
"There was only one point on
which we argued and argued, talked
and discussed over and over attain.
That was: Did David Lamson kill
his wife or was her death an acci-
dent.'

LOOK OUT FOR
THESE SYMPTOMS
OF CONSTIPATION
Get Relief With Kellogg's
All-Bran
Headaches, loss of appetite nnd
energy, Ballow complexions, nnd
sleeplessness are often warning
signs of common constipation.
Unless checked, constipation may
impair health.
Today, you can get rid of com
mon constipation by simply eating
a delicious cereal. Laboratory' tosto
show that Kellogg's All-Bran pro
vides "bulk" to exercise the intes
tines, nnd vitamin B to further aid
regularity. All-Bban is also a
good source of blood-building iron.
The "bulk" in All-Bran is much
like that in leafy vegetables. Inside
the body, it forms a soft mass.'
Gently, it clears the intestines of
wastes. How much better than tak
ing patent medicines.
Two tablcspoonfuls daily will
overcome most types of constipa
tion. Serious cases, with evory
meal. If not relieved this way, see
your doctor.
Enjoy All-Bran as a cereal, or
use in cooking. Appetizing recipes
on the red-and-green package. At
all grocers. Made by Kellogg in
Battle Creek..
See the world's greatest spectacle at
the peak of its plory and interest. You
can easily afford the trip at low round
