CREDIT MEANS OF
E
TELLS MERCHANTS
National Authority Speaks
To Lincoln Business
Men Monday.
SAYS NRA LIQUIDATING
Lecturer Declares Country
Not .to Live Again as
Before 1934.
Credit was portrayed as a
medium of exchange for poods,
as a substitute for barter, as an
alternate for money, and not as
a means for seller to load goods
on consumer, in a talk before
Lincoln business and credit men
in Social Science auditorium Mon
day evening by J. Harry Tregoe,
organizer and past president of
National Association of Credit
men and special lecturer at the
University of Southern California
at Los Angeles.
Mr. Tregoe sUited his business
career in a wholesale shoe house
in Baltimore, Md., and later be
came credit manager and general
financial head of the institution.
He was the executive manager of
the national credit men's organiza
tion for a period of fifteen years
during the association's greatest
growth and came to be considered
the country's greatest authority on
commercial credits and finance. In
the last six months he has lectured
on financial and economic subjects
before groups of credit men in all
major cities, and is now serving in
an advisory capacity to the Na
tional Association of Credit Men.
Inattentive to Fundamentals.
"Many men going into business
do not "know about the successful
mamigement of business. " They
don't pay attention to fundamen
tals. One of these fundamentals
is credit and when you abuse
credit you pay the price. Every
business is based on credit and the
trouble lies in not designating
credit as mcney. The average life
of a business enterprise is ten
years and would undoubtedly be
longer if credit were more thoroly
understood."
He explained that credit is not
a courtesy a store extends a cus
tomer but a. medium of exchange,
of a' promise to paylhat a cus
tomer gives the creditor. He be
lieves that if this fundamental
were more clearly known business
would cease carrying so many bad
accounts and stop doing tbe work
of a bank.
"Money has a certain determined
content. Credit also should have a
content as it serves the same pur
pose as the dollar. The first of
these intrinsic values is willing
ness to pay. the second is ability
to pay, and both are toughened
with the alloy or capital as a dol
lar is toughened with an alloy of
metal."
Mr. Tregoe stated that no
profit is shown until the dollar is
in the bank and that promises are
not cash. Business should not try
to get consumer to buy more than
he can afford. Credit extended by
a store is not payment for goods
but is only a means of exchange
and a promise to pay in the future.
"I believe," Mr. Tregoe said,
"that we will never live again as
we did before March 4. 1934. The
country is undergoing definite
changes. The NRA is in process of
liquidation and is gradually sift
ing down to practicability. Thore
are several changes that must be
made to make it completely suc
cessful. "We haven't felt the etfect of
devaluation as much as we ex
pected but if it perseveres we must
France by its monetary devalua
tion plan decreased the national
debt by 70 percent and so we. too.
will feel the effects of our finan
cial change.
"Don't accept counterfeit credit
dollars from a man who can't pay
and gamble on bis ability to pay
in the future."
Mr. Tregoe will speak again
Tuesday evening at 7:30 o'clock in
Social Sciences building auditor
ium on "An Analysis of the Psy
chology of Fear and Confidence in
Business, Finance and Credit Con
trol." MARY C. ALBIN RECEIVES

Spring Here in
Fact as Ivy Day
Throne Erected
Kven though the weather may be
warm and the grass green, spring
is not truly here until preparations
are begun for Ivy Day. When
workmen begin to erect the throne
on which the May queen will sit
while preseding over the cere
monies, Nebraska students are as
sured that cold weather is past
and for six months high tempera
tures will prevail.
For the last two weeks the Ivy
day grounds have received a great
deal of attention, having been
sodded and watered daily in order
that the grass may be green for
the annual event
Final preparations for the tradi
tional affair were begun yesterday
when the throne was partially
erected. It was expected that it
would be completed Wednesday
and everything would again be in
readiness for the successful pre
sentation of another May queen,
and tbe usual Ivy Day events.
