A great opportunity is now before American business-the opportunity of making a big and permanent asset out of the very difficulties of the present situation. The conviction that this can be done is extremely heartening. It is enough to put anew thrill of life and activity into every form of industry. From one point of view the present situation is by far the most desirable, the soundest, the sanest, and the most hopeful this country has ever seen. Why? Because it brings into bold relief, through sheer necessity, the latent power to create conditions as we would like to have them. The curtailment of Demand for the products of industry brought us face to face with the question, hitherto ignored, as to what causes demand. Then it was discovered that Demand was a created thing, and that more of it could be created in almost any direction-if enough of the right effort were applied.

Chief among the means of creating Demand is now seen to be Advertising. Wherever you find a big demand for any product you find, invariably, that the demand for that product has been stimulated by human effort, and chiefly through advertising. It is obvious to any one who will think it through that the present demand for any product could be substantially lessened if it were possible to eliminate all forms of adver-tising-including pictures, displays, and word of mouth, as well as printed and painted messagesand just let that product depend on the natural or unstimulated demand. And it is equally obvious that a demand for any worthy product can be created and stimulated by means of Advertising. This fact puts within the hands of the business man the means of creating his own market. That would be the biggest asset he could have-an assured market for all he could produce.

HARDING URGES GOALOPERATORS REOPENMINES Request Follows Receipt of Letter Partly Accepting President’s Plan. MAY DECLARE EMERGENCY Will Call on States to Furnish Protection to Workers in Shafts. Bu ROBERT J. BENDER United News Staff Correspondent. WASHINGTON, July 18.—President Harding, following refusal of both miners and operators to accept in full the terras of his arbitration proposal, has urged the operators to return to their districts and reopen their mines. The President's request was delivered to the operators late Monday after receipt of their letter, accepting his arbitration program only in part. but tendering their mines to the Government. From high sources it was indicated the Administration plan contemplated a declaration of a national emergency In the mine situation, with an appeal to operators to reopen mines. This would be accompanied by a call upon Governors of the States, in which operations were resumed, to afford adequate protection for workers who might wish to re-enter the mines and would also assure Federal protection If necessity arose. Eastern Group Will Be First The first mines that probably will attempt production in the face of the miners’ strike, will be in eastern Pennsylvania—the Pittsburgh Coal Company group it was said. The bituminous operators in offering properties, accepted the general
GIRLS, SEE YOUR FIANCES IN BATHING SUITS FOR LOOKS!
By United Press DALLAS, Texas, July 18.—Flappers before you decide on a husband, see him first in a bathing suit. So advises Frank E. Morris, executive secretary of the Texas Retail Dry Goods Association. He says: “If I were a woman I would never decide on a man until I.have first seen him in a bathing suit and that after he had had a dip in the water, so that I could determine just how ugly a croature I was about to encourage as a possible husband. “Men are as clever as women in hiding their defects under a tailor's art. •
principle of arbitration and collective bargaining as laid down in the President's original proposaL Supplement tary to their reply the views of the different district operators were being prepared for the President. Operators Not Unanimous While the operators were not unanimous in the’r attitude toward different of the President’s arbitration provisions and appeared unable to get a unanimous agreement on what would have constituted a complete acceptance of the White House plan, all of them signed the letter delivered to the President, which offers their mines to the Government. The President's statement to the operators did not detail the measures the Government will take, if necessary, in cooperating with the operators to make production both possible and safe. It was stated authoritavely, however, that the scope of these measures will constitute the main topic of Tuesday’s Cabinet session. Chills will creep along your spine when you read of the terror spread by “The Tattooed Arm” in the Times, Thursday, July 20.

“Too, I would recommend to men that they see women In their bathing suit before popping the question. "There is a fine chance for deception on the part of women and men might be disillusioned and suffer a good many regrets, just as the woman would, were they to ask the young lady to take a swim before becoming too strongly enmeshed In Cupid’s spider web.” Morris la a defender of the flapper. “The flapper is a much abused person,” he says.
