HONESTY IN HI SINLESS
Nobody wishes to excuse or defend wrongful acts of
business or to justify swollen profits obtained at the expense
of society, but before condemnation is passed on any busi
ness that is raked over the coals by a senatorial committee
all the facts and circumstances should be clearly revealed.
Consideration of fair play demanded nothing short of
this. The impression created by these probing commit
tees is that scarcely anything is right with industry, busi
ness and finance in this country, whereas exactly the con
trary is true.
That there has been rascality in high places nobody who
knows anything about human nature will question, but the
great and comforting fact still remains that honesty and
square-dealing are overwhelming predominant in American
life.
DID YOU EVER STOP TO THINK?
By Ed son R. Waite
Sir John Aird, President of the Canadian Bank of Com

progress in the field of business during 1934 as a whole was
even more impressive than seemed possible when, address

elements in the business situation.
"Durable improvement, however, must remain uncer
tain as long as world trade is fettered by almost every con
ceivable form of restriction, and continues to be denied one
essential for its advancement, an international gold standard
leaving it therefore to struggle against exchange instability
and the persistent menace of further monetary manipula
tio. But with private enterprise continually gaining over
the forces of depression, sign of informal stabilization of cur
rencies and admission on all sides that the limits of nation
alistic action to restore prosperity have practically been
reached, there is the firm hope that business has at last en
tered upon a period of progressive improvement.
‘‘It is significant and instructive that the most marked
general economic revival of the last two years has been en
joyed by those nations which have suffered least from State
