Ellis, vice president of the southern division of the chamber of commerce of the United States, in an interesting article in the National Republic on the business outlook in , the United States. “ As 'to whether or not our prosperity con­ tinues, lies in our own hands, and will come as a result of our own performance, Mr. Ellis declare». “ Over production of any one or several commodities whether manufactured or from the soil is some­ thing that we must avoid. Uniformity of production in relation to consumption, a balanced ration, so to speak, is the thing to strive for in order to insurç continued and uniform prosperity. The law ,of supply and demand works now as it always has and always will, but greater production and the happy working of labor with good wages as result of that work make for continued prosperity because he consumes what his brother produces and vice versa. “ I sometimes wonder what will happen when every division of every industry and every nation reaches what they are striving for—complete effi­ ciency in production, and a complete and ideal adap­ tion of all the methods of breaking down soles resistance—I have concluded that what will happen is that it will never happen. *5The necessary thing for us to do is to more consistently worship at the shrine of common sense and common humanity, keep our feet on the ground and our heads level in the striving and competition for development Let’s hold on to idealigni now and get away from irregular and unsound business prac­ tices. Stop irregularities of every kind, and each know right from wrong, and keep in the open, in the fresh air, let the sunlight of known sound prac­ tices be our guide, whereby we can look in the mirror and see the reflection of a man true and tfied, and not a shadow of falsity in thoughts and ---------- »— ---------- performance. “ No people—no nation were ever so favored and endowed with the God ¿givo»’ rights and privil­ eges that are today freely resting in the hands of Americans, and the rest of the world is pretty well provided for, too, if they only know how to practice and to usé the things that make men great w h en­ ever they are. “ In our strategic position in relation to other countries geographically and as to natural resources and the intelligence to use them well, we are given the financial leadership of the world. Our man power créâtes—produces more, receives more, uses more and is happy. By using these forces and privileges as fane, honest people should use them, makes men confident of.the future. Nineteen twenty- seven should be a year of rational prosperity, and veryone has a right to be conservatively optimistic, and we should all thank God that Wa have many things to be thankful f o r /’ Propaganda «mu. PUBLISHED BY THE 'ASHLAND PRINTING ‘CO In the Saturday Evening Post of January 15th Garrett Garrett tells the American people much of what they ought to know about international propa­ ganda: how foreign nations successfull connive to put over on his country ideas which serve their interests rather than onr own. Prior to the World war the American people knew little of the deep and devious methods of political propaganda as it has long been practiced in Europe, where an expert system of befooling and befuddling public opinio» in the interests of the ambitions of certain nations had been developed!. With the beginning of the World war this sys­ tem was transferred to the United States. If it were in the open, it would not be dangerous. But it is car­ ried on under camouflage so clever that Americans accustomed to deal above the table have fallen eaay victims to its deceptive influences. In the name of peace, international amity, altruism and other highly ethical causes, insidious attack is made on proper national preparedness, on a tariff protective of American standards of living, on American political and industrial independence, and on the very principles and ideals underlying the institutions of the United States. We need more propaganda in behalf of Ameri­ can ideas, ideal« and interests, and more public Bnderstanding and resentment against alien propa­ ganda. The politician or the newspaper engaged in serving any foreign cause antagonistic to the inter­ ests and welfare of the American people is little less than a traitor. The type of hewhpaper and politician that in every important controversy be­ tween the United States and any foreign power, always assumes that his coffntrv is wroiyf, should fall beneath the scorn of every American who be- tteves that the firet concern of evei^ patriot should be his own country.
