SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 30. (#)—
Ability to decide quickly is the most
important element in leadership, de
clars Prof. Warner Brown of the Uni
versity of California School of Busi

“The real leader, whether he be
good or bad in his decision, is he who

“The best formula is when in doubt,
do semothing. It is indeed sure that
‘he who hesitates is lost.,”
