Five .Minute Business
Deals
Frank Crane tells of a young
man who came to his ofiiee to sell
him something, and asked for five
minutes of his time. Dr. (,'l'illl(‘
replied:
“Yes. provided you will spend
the first two minutes in telling
me what you want me to do and
the next. three in telling me why
you want me to do it."
There would be a great deal
more business done in this coun-
try. and a great deal more busi-
ness success won. it' lill‘~iliess men
followed this rule. .\l~.o an enor-
mous lot of tinin saved for impor-
tant tlllllES and a vast amount ol‘
boredom avoided if attention were
paid to it in private life.

A Prohibition Pioneer
('an it be that New York. after
all. was lll‘,‘ original prohibition
state, 1' A medal just brought to
light, bearing the date of July 4.
1835, bears the legend. “To t‘onl-
meniorate the l‘ll\\l'l!!l‘ of the l‘ro-
liibitory Liquor Law."
That law. as it happened,
destined to much mutilation. It
was repealed and altered, s-‘otlhll
by section. and the last of it dis-
appeared a 'dozen years ago. It is
interesting. nevertheless. as a for-
gottcn chapter of prohibition his-
tory. Few Americans of the pres-
ent day have had any idea that
prohibition was a live issue, with
strong: public support. back in the
fifties, before r-laverv engrossed
national attention.
‘l'il\
Gov. Seymour, iii vetoinr: the
law referred to. explained that he
did so because sill‘ll legislation
,was “inapplicable to New York."
That looks like a curious forc-
shadowinc of the, popular attitude
in New York state at present rc-
gardinq the \'ol.\te:id Law.
All Electrified Country
New York, a French scientist
says. suffers from too much elec—
tricity. Ile complains that he re-
turned home with his own physi-
cal and mental health impaired by
the irritation of electric currents.
There is a new idea. No ques-
tion about the currents ! They
seem almost overwhelming, when
you think of them—~the currents
of the telephone and telegraph
wires. the radio currents, the elec-
tric light currents, the currents
used everywhere for power and
heat and employed in a thousand
ways.
Every modern office building: is
a maze of electric-laden wires.
So is every modern home and ev-
ery substratum ot' a. busy street
and every trolley car and motor
car. And this not only in the
metropolis. In fact, the West in
general uses more electricity than
the East. This is the electric
country.
Can it be that all this is really
injurious? Electricity is stimu-
lating. It is possible to be over-
stimulated. no doubt, by direct
contact with electric currents as
by wine or sunlight; but is such
an unwholesome effect produced
indirectly by all these man-made
currents 1
Life itself is often compared
with electricity. “'1: can proba-
bly stand a great deal more of this
wonderful force right now, out~
side and inside, and eventually
use to advantage more of it than
our. systems could stand at pres-
ent. It is the Electric Age.

COAL, BLT \vrrn REASON '
(Providence Journal)
There is a good deal of talk of the
possibility of a strike on the expira-
at the end of August. Every effort
should be made to prevent such a
calamity. but at the same time there
ought not to be a. weak surrender
to the wishes of the miners that
would pave the way for another
boost in costs to the consumer. The
public wants anthracite and wants
it at a reasonable price. If it fails
to get what it wants, a great impetus
will be given to the suggestion of a
game rats: regulation or the in-
ustry. orally speaking, we need

NOT GENUINE BOOTLEGGERS
The Judge of the Westport Town
court. defending charges of the acting
state'svattorney that the» court dis-
regarded agreements and hampered
the state's atto-ne'y ofllce by not co-
operating in prosecuting. declares his
action in fining three men caught
transporting more than 1,200 gallons
of alcohol was right. "as they were
not. genuine bootleggcrs." If men in
charge of a cargo of 1,200 gallons of
alcohol are not "genuine;bootieggers"
or rum-runners. will the erurite West-
port Judge define what persons would
come under such a description?
The judge also defends his action by
saying they were "men working for
"someone else," is through evidence
the point in the acting state's attor-
ney'sstatcment. If they were "men
working for someone else." the duty
of lhe'state is to get the “someone
else." and the only way to get that
"someone else." is through evidence
or elm-s that may be obtained through
the three accused. '
The declaration of the other “'(‘st-

eliminate. Tiny appear to fail utt--rly

revision of charges that would add

be losing more than 81.000.000 a
year on its suburban passenger busi-

absorption of New England rail-
