Rex Stuart. Those on the nega
tive were: Jesse Addington,

they generally won their battles,

have been under English control.

Taking the Profit

Tht Ftbruory liinf of the Atlantic for lOiS carried a paper by Mr, Bleley
Hudiletton dealing with the general tublect of "taking tht profit out of war,"
which Ur, Huddleston ratted "An American flan for peace." The flritquoted
phrate vat put into the language by the War Induttriet Board toward tht
eloie of tht World War through itt effortt to eliminate oil tear profile. Mr
Huddletton't article came to the attention of Mr. Bernard M. Baruch, chair
nan of tht War Induttriet Board and airninittrator of tht non profit plan,
nd (at ht writee ut), tince it teemed to indicate a growing interett in thi
idea, induced him to inwke practical meant to bring about a full com pre
heneion of taking the profit ovt of irar in the vtriout great rountriet of tht

Wr waa one described
la'a nott profitable industry.
It needs only a scant examination of
alitor? U learn that ether countries
war open to th tame Indictment.
Th method of th Robber Iiarona
did not paaa with th and of feudal
ism. .AnneiatUn by conquest did not
caa. But when America entered th
World War President Wilson fathered
doctrin that shall always govern
us that aevr a foot of territory
would b added to our boundaries by
fore.
So, as America has taken the lead
toward making tmpoealbl national
profit through war, It too may b
America's privilege to point the way
toward making impossible individual
profit through war. To take the profit
ut of war Is to tak a long step to
ward creating an economic detona
tion of war. Th experience of th
United States to the World War af
fords a basis for the belief that the
plaa herein discussed Is practical. In
fact. It Is more than a belief It Is a
certainty, although not widely known.
Th work is such a busy place, and
th radius of human activity has been
0 greatly enlarged because of modern
Inventions, that It Is not strange that j
there are but few people who are con
versant with what was quietly but '
effectively taking place In this coun-!
try In th mobilisation and ue of Its
material resources In the World War
a process that would have eventual
ly eliminated all Improper profits.
Strength Is given to the public ad
vocacy of industrial mobllzatlon mado
by both President Harding and I'resl
dent Coolldge Mr. Coolldge as re
cently aa last October In his Omatii
speech to the American IcKlon by
the fact that the plan they advocated
as a part of the regular national war
agencies had once been set up and
successfully operated under the War
Industries Board.
Preceding the President's recent
clear exposition of this subject, soma
degree of public Interest had been en
gendered by an exchange of tetters be
tween Owen D. Young (of Dawes plan
fame), in behalf of the Walter Hinos
Pag School of International Rela
tions, and the writer. The corre
spondence resulted in the establish
ment of lectures at the Page School
(of Johns Hopkins University) on this
theme. Previously the Atlantic Month
ly printed an article X7 Slsley Huddle
ton, wh pointed out that Europe saw
great strides toward peace In the
American Idea of "taking the profit
out of war" in a systematic way. His
basic reference was to tbs plan of th
War Industries Board.
Th resources of a country might
be referred to as th flv M's: (1)
man power; (2) money; (3) main
tenance or food: (4) material re
sources (including raw materials,
manufacturing facllltlos, transporta
tion, fuel and power) ; and (5) morale.
Th intelligence with which th first
four are directed and co-ordinated as
a whole will determine th fifth, th
morale of the community.
In the war emergency it early be
cam evident to those who were
eharged with the responsibility of
mobilising the resources that there
was a just sentiment among the peo
ple against profiteering. Profiteering
might be willful and profit making
might be Involuntary; but, whatever
Its form, there was a Just determina
tion it ahould cease. So it became
necessary to fix prices where th sup
ply was limited.
Wherever th government created a
ahortag by Its demands, prices were
fixed, not only for the Army, Navy and
th Allies, hut for the civilian popula
tion as weU. And In addition to price
Ixing on war essentials (such as steel,
weol, copper, and to- forth), the bal-
aace, after th war program had been
Hied, was rationed or distributed ac
cording to the priority needs of th
various civilian demands. In other
.words, where the price of the product
of aa industry was fixed (hat industry
had to deliver the part which tht gov
ernment Md not need to th clvlllaa
population, not la th way th Indus
try chose, bat as th government di
rected. It must be remembered thai whti
the war cam ther wai no adeqsai
preparation. Indeed. It la doubted by
the beat authorities whether any ef
tecttv form of preparatlos tfcea
kaown would hive ba of much avail
In view of tht widespread and e a gall
