Still less let any considerable body of the .race' imagine that because certain business agreements have 1)606 come to that prosperity of the 1928 or the 1929 variety is due any moment.

The laws of trade are as much’laws of Nature as are the laws of the air and the sun and the stars. Men and nationsmust see this with ever-increasing clearness, no matter what conferences may meet or break up- The laws of trade are’ as deep as human wants, He who^best meets human wants, h£ it is who will get the trade. The citizens and the men -whether of the field or the farm or the counting house who see this most'clearly and who work most intelligently with this plain fact in view, will be the successful business men of the coming days. The work of the Conference is no substitute fpr individual initiative, energy or integrity. 'The individual whether a person or a firm or village or a city or a na­ tion still must do with its might what ,the business world wants it to do. These are the days to keep our heads.
