BUSINESS PROBLEMS OF THE WAR DIVERSIFY, FERTILIZE, MOTORIZE, I HE nation awaits the solution of the food prob lem. That there is a problem is evidenced by the existence of a most unusual condition wherein, with the world clamoring for a larger food supply and paying record high prices, the producers hesitate to increase their yield greatly, through fear that increased production will penalize and maybe ruin the producers. They have visions of glutted markets. The Government's food-control commission, headed by Herbert C. Hoover, is the center of attention, and the public apparently expects it to come forth with a brief announcement or decision that will assure food in plenty and at low prices. In my opinion there will be nothing sensational or especially radical in the program that the commission will finally adopt. The seat of the trouble is neither at the producing nor the consuming end of the matter, but with the distribution thereof. A common-sense readjustment of the nation's distributing system is needed in order to assure a market, at a profit, for everything perishable that the farmers can raise. The producers must be assured against continuation of a condition wherein every year sees thousands of SPECIALIZE From The Saturday Evening Post bushels of apples rot under the trees and thousands of bushels of potatoes decay in the pits--because there is neither a ready market for them of which the producers are aware, nor adequate means of storing them up for some future use. It is necessary that we bring order out of the chaos which now rules the business of growing and distributing perishable food. This chaos is chiefly apparent in the lack of knowledge accompanying the planting and the distributing of crops. There is need that the...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from This Is Our Land: Problems of the War and Peace From the Point of View of a Business Man And let there be no mistake about what is meant by complete victory - no illusion or self-deception. It is not a question of victory or defeat; it is, putting it In the simplest words, Victory or Death. We must achieve abso lute and undeniable victory, or we forfeit our national and imperial existence. This truth has been slowly but surely spreading since the beginning of the War, and it is now realized by all but an insignificant faction. If only those, who should lead and direct public opinion, had brought home to the nation the magnitude of the task before it, they would have evoked a response, revealing how hollow are the fears of those doubters who have never felt the spirit of our past. The manhood of our country has won undying fame On many a hard-fought field, and the glorious deeds of the men of our race from the Dominions Beyond the Seas Show that the ancient spirit still lives. The War has knit us together and made us one as nothing else could have done, and those entrusted with the prosecution of the War, and still more with the settlement of Peace, must ever bear in mind that they are trustees, not only for the people of these islands, but also for the Dominions, who have poured out the blood of their bravest without stint for the Motherland. It becomes a sacred duty, then, for us to see that those sacrifices shall not have been made in vain, that we Shall clearly recognize the mistakes and dangers of the past, and that we shall make such terms of peace as will prevent our incurring like risks in the future. We have been so dazzled by oratory and linguistic dexterity of late years. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Business Methods and the War Class conducted in this School during the past seven years shows, no doubt, that military men can improve their efficiency by a study of civilian methods, and the wonderful success with which Transport and Supply have been managed during the present War shows this to be the case. It occurs to me, however, that quite possibly civilians might, with equal advantage, make some study of the soldier's methods of handling business, and, accordingly, in this short course of lectures which I have undertaken, I propose to start by making some comparison of military and civilian methods of business organisation, with a view to seeing whether this new point of view may not suggest some ideas that are well worth following up in the interests of business efficiency.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Business of War In the glamour Of battle heroism the world loses sight Of the mechanics of war. It is more thrilling to have an emotion about a forlorn trench hope led to victory than to hear about a supply column that reached the front under a storm of shells. Yet the courage of the teamsters who face death with only the reins in their hands is fit to rank with the valour of the fighting men armed with guns. War has become a business. It is the world's supreme task at this moment. Business as usual has gone into the scrap heap along with many other illusions that clogged effort and begot a costly Optimism in the early days of the conflict. The one definite work of civilization is to win the war. The path to victory is through organization. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Problems of the War, Vol. 2: Papers Read Before the Society in the Year 1916 The Grotius Society has now entered upon the second year of its activity, and has, it is hoped, established its position among societies devoted to the study of the Law of Nations. The war unhappily continues, and restoration to normal conditions of peace is at the present moment by no means within view. The first volume of the papers read before the Society was published, under the title Problems of the War, at the beginning Of last year, and had a gratifying circulation, and the present volume contains, with one exception, papers discussed by it since that date. The exception is the article on The Treatment of Alien Enemies, by Sir Ernest Satow, which, though read to members of the Society in 1915, was antecedent to our actual foundation. This article, moreover, as well as the one on War Crimes by Dr. Bellot, have already been published elsewhere by the authors, as mentioned above in the Preface. Nevertheless it has been thought proper to include them in the present volume, not only on account of their intrinsic merits, but as Strictly belonging to the Transactions of the Society.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Vital Issues of the War Now that the church seems, in the eyes of many, to have fallen from the high esteem in which it was held by a former generation, no doubt a volume of sermons, even on The Vital Issues of the War, runs grave risk of not being read. Since the war began, however, sharp criticism has been Visited upon the pulpit for evading the discussion of its compelling moral and spiritual problems; it needs, therefore, to be made known that all pulpits, to say the least, have not deserved the reproach of failing to utilize this unique opportunity. So my book goes forth, quite without apology, for what it is - the messages of a preacher to his people in the regular course of his ministry, printed as they were delivered, Wlth only the slight revision de sirable for publication.
