Prosperity Due
to Continue, Says
- W. N. U. Official
y. M. Harper, Back From
Trip East, Finds Present
Condition Is “Healthy
Procedure.”
Continuation, on a more healthful
basis, of the present period of busi
ness prosperity, wag predicted by W.
M. Harper, assistant general man
ager of the Western Newspaper
union, with general offices In Omaha,
cn his return from a trip of Inspection
which has taken him Into leading
cities over the country.
“Notwithstanding what appears to
be a slight ’et up in activities gen
erally, and a falling off in volume of
business, 1 regard it only as a
healthy procedure, and one that is
calculated to prolong the period of
substantial prosperity,” he said.
“I feel that banks and big business
generally are appreciative of the fact
that action that will tend to curtail
inflation is very necessary If the
| country's business is to continue in
the healthy, vigorous condition which
now obtains.
"My own Inspection and checkin*
up have caused me to appreciate the
soundness of statements that have
been made by such men as Judge
Oary of the United States Steel cor
poration. heads of Federal Reserve
banks and others. It Is time for
temperate action on the part of all
business, but we can view the present
and the Immediate future with con
fidence.”
Mr. Harper also remarked on the
pronounced wag# inflation which has
curtailed building activities to a large
extent in the east.
"During my visit to Boston,” he
said, "I was told by bankers and of
flclals of mortgage companies that
they are holding down on loans for
building Construction for the reason
that at present prices, the structure
is liable to cost more than it may
be worth several years from now.
These conditions, however, are bound
to adjust themselves. Slowing up of
construction activities will automati
cally bring wages and other costs
back where they belong,.”
Mr. Harper's trip included St. Louis,
Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Columbus,
Boston. New York,, Philadelphia.
Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Fort Wayne
and Chicago.
Poland Is said to be reviving Its to
bacco culture wlfh excellent results.

Too Much Brag in
Patriotism, Says
Bishop Shayler
Tells Continental Club That
America’s Duty Is Toward
Neighbors—War No
Solution.
Bishop E. V. Fhayler, addressing
the Continental club at luncheon in
Hotel Fontenelle yesterday, stated
that our patriotism should be some
thin* more than a brag; something
more than word* from the lips or in
scribed on paper.
"Much of our patriotism is on
paper,” the bishop asserted. "True
patriotism is a spirit which animates
a man and lifts up -.is aspirations
for his native land."
He referred to four great epochs
in the national life of this nation and
explained that during each of these
epochal period* there was manifested
a type of patriotic service which
meant one for all and all for one."
"American life is built on Christian
ideals, on a Christian foundation."
he added. "True American* grow out
of the beet of other nations. We
should remember that America ha* a
relationship with all of the world and
its neighbors must receive the henefi
cencies of it* democratic govern
ment.
"The principles of which our gov
ernment was founded should find ex
presslon today in our united loyalty.«
"We pray that the curse of war
shall forever be ended; it will be
ended when the principle* for which
this nation stands are expressed In
peace as they were In war. War
never settled anything; it is only an
irritation."
Japan has become a close rival of
Germany in the manufacture of rub
ber toys.
