COOPERATION OF WARTIMES NEED FOR ERA OF PEACE The January bulletin letter of the Anaheim National Bank says: The year that began in darkness and doubt has closed in triumph. It has witnessed a very general and very radical readjustment of economic views. The eLague of Nations that yesterday seemed a visionary accessory is now likely to become a desirable reality, bringing with it a new sense of fraternity between the peoples of the earth. Paternalism is its real naem and paternalism is a need both of the world and of business. The idea is not a hollow theory, instead, it is one constructive form of co-operation containing the highest of economic value. Secretary of Commerce Redfield calls it "the heart behind our power." He inquires if our "vision and United States Food Administration License Number G-29177 Sam Hill Cash Grocery and Meat Market nuselfishness lapsed on November 11, 1918," for he with many others knows paternalism was the heart of our terrific fighting force. Mr. Field says "if our commerce and trust is to stay, it must be a constructive force." We never thought a shortage was possible to su here happy America, yet it stole upon with the vicious stealth of a panther and so will the consequences of our grades of indulged selfishness as we as commercial sin. Opinions Diverge Opinions differ widely as to what is goin gto happen both soon within the confines of the year of Lord 1919. On the one hand, one Americas' ablest students of finance looks for more inflation and high prices, while on the other, preceded and authorities in economics rout commodity prices on the down roa toward pre-war normal levels. We are inclined to look for a lowering of the general average, of commodities. The downward trend will sharper and the route longer when the stopping point near old levels those commodities whose production was stimulated by war to point above the natural expansion needed to meet the normal in crease of consuming requirements. There are other commodity classifications that have enjoyed heavy war demand but which have not been produced in abnormal quantities. These who probably react less feverishly while the classification known as "non-e essentials" or "luxuries" may suffice very little "back lash", if any.

The new Secretary of the Treasury, Glass, in announcing the suspension of the committee's operations, took occasion to warn the public of the need for continued strict economy and the avoidance of dealing in securities which had only a speculative value. If operations in worthless securities become unduly competitive with government financing, or if any other reason in the discretion of the committee comes up, it will resume control, retaining it nuttily dissolved by the President or the operation of law. As the war demand for artificially supported exchange ceases, and ships become generally more available, sales to our present European customers will probably fall away, for their own ships will be looking for a longer haul than our ports permit. On the other hand, American producers, supported by our great supply of shipping, will seek markets for their goods in the more nudeveloped portions of the globe—South American and the Asiatic countries for example, to whom we are in debt. The result of this will be a lessening of the lead that our balance of merchandise exports now sums requirements. There are other commodity classifications that have enjoyed heavy war demand but which have not been produced in abnormal quantities. These will probably react less feverishly while the classification known as "non-e essentials" or "luxuries" may suffer very little "back lash", if any. As time has worked away from the close of other war periods, is has registered a year or more before the business of those epochs flowed through their old channels, and while the organization of the present world may be capable of a smooth adaptation to after-the-war chill and fever, it must be remembered that the mechanism of the organization is more complicated and requires greater skill to actuate. During the coming year, we look for the physical volume of general business to be much below what it had slipped to last year from its peak of 1916, but our expectations refer solely to volume and not to profits.

Is worked away from other war periods, is has rear or more before the declare that labor in peace would maintain its gains of the war period, capital should not feel justified in coming forth with equally pointed and contradictory utterances. Capital and labor both will do well to assimilate the war lesson of co-operation. In doing so, their relations will gain the attitudes respectively of the intelligent buyer and the mature seller of merchandise, and the utility in the commodity called labor will be recognized, for after all, utility or service is the justifiable ground for satisfactory exchange in all lines. Suppose living costs fell 50 percent from present levels, what manner of argument could put justice or even safety of those immediately concerned into a refusal to accept at least a 30 percent cut in wages. This is the situation that we face today, and it is desirable to all concerned that the satisfaction in compromise be learned and the decisions of fair-minded tribunals be abided by if differences cannot be settled through peaceful and constructive inter-comunications. It is safe to say that the old sentiments between capital and labor will not automatically dissolve. It will require the willingness of both to take steps towards each other. Though the greatest democracy on earth has vested itself with prescriptive authority almost beyond the proportions of an autocracy, it must be remembered that this was done in an emergency that required the fighting of fire with fire. Now that the diabolic cause for the temporary abandonment of the principles of freedom has been beaten, let us return with all practical speed to our new ONLY TWO DESERT FROM THIS DISTRICT Chief Clerk George H. Gobar says the local exemption board is to be congratulated in having only two real deserters from the 6600 registrants of the district. The two deserters are Jesus Rodriguez of Westminster and Epitasio Aguirre de Anaheim. Working in Utah About the middle of March, 1917, notice was mailed to Jesus Rodriguez at Westminster to appear at headquarters of the local board for entrainment on March 28. But the registrant did not put in an appearance and the quota was entrained without him. It was learned in June, 1918, that Rodriguez was working in the beet fields of Utah and was later taken into custody by a sheriff there and while on a train en route to Fort Douglas, near Salt Lake City, Utah, made his escape from the train and has never been heard from since. He was 29 years old and a native of Texas. Joe Cervantes, a relative of Rodriguez, also of Westminster, was in the beet fields of Utah and was taken into custody at the same time as Rodriguez, and on the same train from which the latter escaped, and was landed at Ft. Douglas and later was entrained for Camp Lewis for the local board, but was rejected by the army officers there because of having too few teeth. Cervantes is again back at Westminster. It is safe to assert that Rodriguez is not There are rich classifications that heavy war demands we have not been produced in manities.

Now that the diabolic cause for the temporary abandonment of the principles of freedom has been beaten, let us return with all practical speed to our new business structure built of a more enduring fabric wherein all of our economic and political forces co-ordinate for the working out of an even greater democracy, a greater freedom and a greater service to the have business return to a pre-war basis, if it could, we must retrace our steps a pace at least, perhaps to a point of government supervision wherein the supervisory counsels for the different lines of business activity are able men with training and experience and are selected in a way to balance the board from all angles of the particular activity they supervise. Lesson of War If the crime, bloodshed and sorrow of the past four years was necessary in order that the world could be confronted with the ministry of co-operation, then let us practice its precepts throughly in all walks of life, embodying not only the letter but the spirit in our every day activities. The price which America alone has paid for the unfoldment of cooperation is as profitable as an investment as she ever made.

We will say, however, that we are more than pleased, after nearly a year’s work, first with the durability and efficiency of this machine, and also with your quick response when we called on your service men to overhaul our tractor, and make adjustments on same. I believe this Tractor will do as much work as eight head of good mules, and at much less expense. If I were in need of another tractor, I would buy another. Model J Sandusky. Sincerely yours, J. T.
