The Foanfefea of Every Prosperous Business RECENTLY the Chicago Journal of Commerce in an editorial discussion of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) as an example of modern American business, said: “Three years ago the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) which does business in eleven states, adopted a wholesome publicity policy, not only to derive the natural benefits of advertising its products, but to acquaint the public with intimate information regarding the Company and its affairs. The fair dealing, justice and equity of its practices, the business principles which rule its conduct, have been published far and wide throughout the territory it serves. Its policies were frankly disclosed to promote the welfare and to secure and hold the confidence and esteem of its stockholders, employes, and the public. The Company has paid for this publicity service just as any other industrial or mercantile enterprise pays for its advertising, and with most gratifying results. “This publicity campaign has been dubbed GoodWill advertising’—a happy phrase. Good-Will is the foundation of every prosperous business. Good-Will always contributes to profits and can be secured only by fair dealing, fair prices, and a rigid adherence to business ethics. In all these the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is a model of efficiency.” TIIS appreciation of the purposes, practices, and achievements of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) so clearly expressed in the above quoted editorial is most gratifying to the Board of Directors of this Company, for it confirms their conviction that understanding and fairness go together. You cannot be fair unless you understand. You cannot understand unless you are willing to be fair. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is performing a highly essential service in a highly specialized branch of industry. It is doing something that has to be done in away that entitles it to the approval of the public it serves. It is to the interest of the public as well as the Company that the Company should give a frank account of itself and of the stewardship of its seven Directors. Hence this sustained campaign.

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, TUESDAY, MARCH 7, 1922

Principals’ Meeting Was Held Monday 7 Night (l "" 1|r ‘" n ,)nco one > wns concerned. After talking nnd expressing opinions for two hours, Superlndendent Allen of the Bluffton schools, moved that the principals retire to another room, that the body might agree on charges, il any were to he made, nnd submit them In the proper way, that they might bo forwarded to the officials of the state athletic association. The motion carried, and the principals retired. Superintendent Worthman refused to go with the men. Principal French and others insisted that ho meet with thy men, but he refused, saying that Decatur had no charges to make, and It was the dlfty of the men who felt they were offended, to make tho charges, and that, the Decatur school officials would sift tho matter to the bottom, and dean house, il there was any cleaning to be done, not only here, but would insist that all matters coming up previous to tho tournament be sifted to the bottom. The prim ipals retired, and after n deliberation of almost two hours, sent for Mr. Worthman. saying they were ready. Mr. Worthman went hi tho room, and a resolution had been prepared, but not a man signed his name to it. Mr. Worthman refused to accept the charges, unless they signed tho document. There was considerable hesitancy, and finally the document was changed, and the names of the complaining schools only were attached, the same appearing on the front page of today’s Democrat. The principals assembled asked Mr. French to call the newspapermen represented, and asked that they not say anything about the meeting, or send it to outside papers, insisting that they wait until after the decision of the state association, and then a signed statement would be presented to each of the papers in the district, and that if the referees were exonerated, they would glady abide with the result and wanted everybody to forget all the Unpleasant features of the tournament. The Bluffton men agreed, but the Democrat representative refused, saying that the people of Decatur were accused, and that to agree to the request would be simply laying down, and per mitting those who cared to do so, to say anything they wanted to about Decatur. and that by so doing would simply be pleading guilty to all the ugly charges now flying, because no defense was being made. W.e feel that the community is entitled to the facts, and that if these men have any charges, they should make them like men, and not confine themselves to hearsay accusations. The request that this paper say nothing about the matter was unfair for Bluffton newspapers had used the fact that the meeting had been called and had sent it broadcast over the state. The Bluffton Banner last evening used a two line streamer head, entirely across the first page saying:— "SCHOOL OFFICIALS TO MEET AND INVESTIGATE CHARGES OF UNFAIRNESS OF REFEREE HALE AT DISTRICT TOURNEY.” The: trouble with the affair seems to be that these accusers wish to say, what they want to but there must pe no denial. Decatur has done nothing wrong and refuses to remain quiet under the unfair charges and accusations. The verdict of the Decatur men concerning the Bluffton meting last night is that it was a fizzle, pure and simple, and the resolution adopted was for warded to Mr. Trester, head of the ath-: letic association. Superindendent Worthman today wired Mr. Trester to either come to Decatur himself, or send a competent man to .make an invest!-j gation of every charge made. Other: facts will also be presented concerning i other matters, and there may be a re-' action that might not be so pleasant for some of the accusers. Decatur won the tournament, and wo feel in a fair and square manner. It was pointed out to men at the meeting that the games were won as had been predicted all over the district up until the Bluffton game, when Deca-1 tur was victorous. and was permitted I to enter the finals. This of course upset the dope for Bluffton and Monroe. Those who attended the meeting last night were 11. R. Gettle, president of

the Bluffton school board; Ora Beerbower, Liberty Center coach; L. R. Templin. Bluffton teacher; Dick Gay, Bluffton teacher: Virgil Simmons, Bluffton attorney: Marion Wilson, Petroleum coach; John W. French, Bluffton principal: P. A. Allen, Bluffton superintendent; R. E. Ponser, Liberty Center principal; E. S. Haffner, Geneva principal; Don Collum, Geneva superintendent; J. C.

J. H. Stewart, of the Decatur Demo- ’ crat. o PREDICT BUSINESS REVIVAL Indianapolis,- March 7.-*~Prediction of business revival were made freely lat the state automobile show opening here today. Agents for the various automobile manufacturers represented at the showsaid they saw "prosperity just around the corner.” "Boom times" in tho automobile industry are expected to come early in the spring without further price reductions. "Tlie automobile trade dispite the I gloomy past is making the gamest fight in its history based on the faith ■ that industry is facing a real revival”, said John B. Orman, manager of the ■ show. "This revival will lead a general business revival in the spring. For one thing the public’s mind is now easier regarding prices which are now at pre-war levels in most cases. "All slashes have been made and the market is stabilized at the lowest Pljice ebb." One remarkable thing about the i show was the number of Indiana manufactured automobiles on the floor. More than a score of pleasure cars, trucks and tractors of 1922 model made in this state took up a large part of I the floor space. Biased high over head in a “basket” in the manufacturers building at the state fair grounds, the Canadian Kilties Band furnished music for the show. The "basket” was a regular bandstand suspended from the steel girders of the building. Rail birds in the last show interrupted the musicians and cluttered the 'space near the stand. They wont have a chance this year —unless they climb tho ladders.
