JOBS
How many wage earners or sala
ried employees in this country have
stayed on one job as long as twenty
years? Probably more than most
people realize, but very few equal
the record of three employees of a
New York lead pencil manufacturing
concern. One of them, the credit
manager, has worked for the same
company for fifty-four years, one of
their salesmen has been with them
fifty years, and one of the factory
men fifty-five years. Ali three are
in good health and still in active ser
vice. In this same company the aver
age length of service of the traveling
sales force is over twenty years.
Twelve salesmen, still active, have
a total of four hundred and eight
years of service, an average of thir
ty-four years each.
Examples like that help correct
our idea that we are essentially a
restless people, constantly jumping
from job to job. These folks who
stay on one job continuously may
not get so much excitement out of
life, but they certainly get more solid
satisfaction and security, and if they
are thrifty they are very likely to
leave larger estates to their heirs
than any of the job-jumpers.
JEWS
It. is difficult for Americans to
giasp the full extent of the anti-
Jewish prejudice which exists in
many parts of Europe. In Germany
the Fascist movement led by Adolph
Hitler has as a part of its revolu
tionary program the expulsion of all
Jews from Geormany, and Hitler
showed enough strength at the re
cent election to cause great alarm
among the Jewish population.
I have a Jewish friend whose
daughter not long ago married a
young Jewish banker of Berlin. She
wrote home the other day that her
husband was closing up his business
in Berlin and they were moving to
Amsterdam in Holland, and many
of the other important Jewish busi
ness men and bankers of Germany
were looking for more friendly coun
tries to move to.
When we consider the position oc
cupied by Jewish merchants and
bankers in America, the honor paid
to two great Jews, Cardozo and Bran
deis, who are justices of our Su
preme Court, the respect in which
Jews like Edward Filene of Boston
and the late Julius Rosenwald of
Chicago, are held, any such program
as Hitler’s seems incomprehensible
to us.
RICHES
Henry Ford once told me 'he se
cret of making money. It is to man
ufacture something which everybody
wants, make it cheaper than anybody
else can make it, keep on improving
the product and reducing the cost of
making it, and cut down the retail
price every time the cost is cut.
That is a rule that has never failed
to work, whether the product be au
tomobiles, or newspapers, or bread.,
The lower the price, the wider the
market.
*
I was reminded of this the other
day when I saw a notice that the
company manufacturing the highest
priced automobile in the world has
closed its American factory and stop
ped trying to do business in this
country, while Mr. Ford is announc
ing anew car which will be cheaper
than anything he has yet put out.
The old idea that money can be
made only by selling high-priced
commodities to the wealthy is re
sponsible for a great deal of our
present economic difficulty.

cipal thing the matter with our so
cial and economic order today is an
excess of greed. Dr. Russell warned
the Teachers’ Convention that young
people must be taught the dangers
cf avarice.
“Get the money” without regard
to how it is got, seems to be the
motto of an increasingly large num
ber of young men and women. It is
this idea, fostered by “success”
stories, in print and to a very large
extent in the movies, that is at the
bottom of the whole system of
racketeering. Organized crime is sim
ply organized greed.
It is still true, as Saint Pault wrote
nearly two thousand years ago, that
the love of money is the root of all
evil. Not money itself, but the love
of money. And the only possible cor
rective to the tendency to put money
above everything else is to change
our whole method of teaching the
young, so that they will learn that it
is possible to live happily without
much money—even more happily,
for most people, than if they had
money.
