reports on business progress

ruled higher. Chemicals firm
ed after early irregularity.
The main deterrent to the in
dustrial sector was a sharp
drop in American Tobacco
which at its low was off ZVz
points. There was slight ir
regularity in the oils and
electrical equipments.

THE 1912 BULL MOOSE convention's official program fea
tured photographs of Teddy Roosevelt and his running
mate, Gov. Hiram Johnson, on the front cover. A couple of
million programs had core e
off the presses when the
publisher suddenly discov
ered he had not secured per
mission from the copyright
owner to use the photos in
question. Faced with the
possibility, of a costly dam
age suit, he grimly wired
the owner: "Considering use
of your photographs on cov
ers of three million conven
tion programs. Publicity
break of a lifetime! What
will you pay for this?"
The owner of the pictures
wired back: "Will pay five
hundred dollars and not a cent more." The relieved publisher
answered, "Your offer ridiculously low, but being pressed for"
time, we accept."
One thin? of which you may be sure: he who laughs last doesn't
work for the fellow who told the story!
