IIERR VON JAOOW,
German foreign minister,
whose retirement from his
post, ostensibly because of
ill-health, has been persis
tently rumored.
CAPT. EUGENE DELK
of the steamship Leelanaw,
which was torpedoed by a
German submarine off the
coast of Scotland, has ar

cfCOMPANY"-
A large and favorably known business
concern displays prominently In all In
advertising a statement or slogan to ths
effort that ' the world la growing better."
And one of the leading con' of
Omaha boldly advertise. "Business la
pood, thank, you.."
Both of these statements, repeatedly
many times at the expense of two rell
r.M business concerns, have caused a
great deal of comrnt. They are con
a'dered extra ordinary, remarkable, and
thry are remarkably true.. Because the
world I" aowtna; better.. And buelneM
la ood.. Thla i particularly true aa
reearda Omaha.
Evidence of thla fact that business la
good in Omaha la not hard to find. One
need only to consult membere of local
bunlnesa organisation to find that the
buolneaa men of Omaha are working In
harmony for the common Kood. Thla la
especially true of the membera of the
O.naha Manu-fsctureers Aaeoclatlon.
many of whom hava banded together In
a co-operative advertising campaign.
Here' we see business of the aame and
widely dlvere endeavora, aome who In ;
the paat hare been considered the worst
of competltora. othera whoae Uvea of
activity have been eo far removed that
not any one of them knew tbo othera:
Yet here they are all meeting, agreeing
upon couraeea of action dealgned for the
common anod.
Tklags Are Dlffereat Maw.
. W need only to reflect to conalder the
business conditions of the paat In order
to prove to ourselves, to be positively j
rure that the world and business both,
are growing better. V can all remem-
!xr, It waa not so very long go, when j
business waa on auch a plane of fierce I
conetltlon that It resolved Into a rut j
throat proposition. It waa "dog aat dog" j
with a vengeance survival of the atrong-
at and Lord help the weak. Burliness j
waa a battle. It waa war, and well, moat I
everybody kowa what Kherman aald war
waa, and there la . plenty of evidence I
nowadays to prove his contention correct.
But, how different things are today! U7ID riP'DrlftTMTi'NT

tion? Well. Its the same only different.
it Is best described aa friendly rather
than by the word fight. Rather It ia co
operation, though It la competition none
the less. But whereas the old competition
meant success by killing others, the new
competition means advancing by friendly
rivalry, co-operation, and the enlarge
ment of markets for the common good
of all.
Business men are learlng that they ean
best advance not by fighting tbelr com
petitors and tearing down their business,
but by co-operating with them to build
up bunlnesa and to extend business for
. the common good of all. Bo It it that we

HIGHER CORPORATION TAX PAID

RUSHES REGIMENT
TO BROWNSVILLE
(Continued from Page One.)
Baalaess Setter feasla.
Business U on a better basis, and cer
tainly rests upon a higher moral plana.
It la not that the bualnesa men hava been
considering the esthetic phase of busi
ness what cars they for ethlca! But It
ia the aame old reason bualnesa la business-
Ha business nowadays follows mora
closely the golden rule, not because It la
the golden rule, but baoauaa U pays
better.
And Omaha-alwayg In the vanguard of
those cltlea to take up new and better
things is In tba front as. regards these
new business Ideals. Membera of our
Manufacturers, association hava banded
together In an extensive advertising
rsmpnign, the purpose of which, is to
acquaint residents of Omaha and tha
people of Nebraska with Omaha made
products, to Impress these people with
the facta that Omaha products are not
only quality products, but that they are
aa reasonable priced. If not more so, than
products of distant cities, and that tha
continual use and consumption of Omaha
made products means not only pro parity
for tha manufactureer. but likewise for
the workers and for tha consumers of
tha products, as well aa for everybody
In general.
Heretofore, local residents did not ap
preciate the Importance of patronising
local manufactures by consuming Omaha
made products. But things are changing
in that respect, too, because tha new
competition the spirit of help rather
than to hinder Is having its effect upon
consumers as well aa upon bualnesa
men.
Hela Keep Wealth, at II ease.
The reasons why the people of this
city and thla state should coiwume lo
cally made products are many. In tha
first place, the output of local manu
facturers ia largely produced by Neb
raska. Tha great state of Nebraska Is
one of the moat productive, one of the
very weathlest In the whole United
States. Since thla enonnoua wealth la
produced here, why not keep It here for
the benefit of the producers rather than
to aend our wealth to othera of distant ,
states? That la what Is done when for
eign goods are consumed, but when we
um Omaha made goods, wa are helping
to kep her tha wealth produced here
and the wealth brought her In return
far our valued output.
This Involvea co-operation on the part
of local producers and local consumers.
Hut it is very bard to classify some aa
producers and othera aa consumers ba
leuae we are all producers and wa are
all consumers. Therefore, if we, all of
vis, aa consumers use Omaha made pro
iuu. then we alii all be benefitting
uui-kelvea aa producers.
It ia remarkably true that wo are all
lnoducers. No man is paid a wags nor a
salary unless Ke ia producing something

i-mi'ioye, the seemingly unimportant
clerk, ail have to do with produclua
wcalih. And no matter how seemingly
ommonpiace the work may be. It la none
the less necessary to the scheme of pro
duction. Ho It may be readily seen that every
leron in Omaha and everybody la Ne
Lrs.ka has to do with the production of
Omaha manufactured good, and that If
eteryone bays locally nude products. It

Exchange on Paris
and London Drops
to New Low Point
NEW" YORK, Aug. 14. More acute con
dition attended today's foreign exchange
market, with new low records for. bills
on London and. Paris. Demand sterling
fell to W.ePVi. agalnat yesterday's , low j
level of M. 70. .and Paris checks were
quoted at 6.ft0 a css ot 1 cent froin
yesterday. ; '
The market was so demoralised that
dealera In exchange had the greatest dif
ficulty in keeping themselves posted on
rates. Quotations In different, banklnit
houses varied all the way from 1 to I
points on the remittances to London and
Parle. After the close of the market It
was aald that one of the largest banklnn
Institutions In thla city, had aold London
tills as low aa $4.90.
Tha rata quoted for other Buropean
countries showed no marked changes
from yesterday. Id point of fact quota
tlons for all continental exchange., ' other
than on Farts, were merely nominal. Of
ferings on London and Paris were rela
tively light, but It waa said that furthor
large amounts of these remittances would
tje offered during the coming week. . AH
present Indications point to lower quo
tations unless British and French credits
are eoon established here.
So far as could be learned no progress
waa made today in negotiations having
for their object the establishment of
furtner foreign credit or loans in this
market.
