BINGHAMPTON, N. Y — A plea
that money-making shall not be the
mainspring of action of the United
States and the other American repub
lics was a feature of the address on
the relations of the two continents,
given before the Forum here by the
minister of Bolivia in the United
States, Don Ignacio Calderon, who is
the South American diplomatist of
longest service in this country. He be
gan with an examination of their dif
ferences, to see “whether they are such
that the desired union and solidarity
of aims can be achieved.” Continuing,’
he said in part:
“For many years the United States
has been busy building up its coun
try and has paid no attention to its ’
southern neighbors, unless it was to
i publish joking remarks in the news
1 papers about revolutions supposed
! to be their only occupation. Nor
were the people of South America bet
ter informed as to the United States.
With the visit of Mr. Hoot, when he
was secretary of state, came a notable
change. By this frank and clear expo
sition of the policies of this coun
try, he succeeded in giving a proper
conception of the aims and purposes'
of the United States. Upon his return
here, he revealed to his countrymen
the existence, south of Panama, of
nations full of life, orderly and pro
gressive. More attention has been
paid since to South America, when
lately two great events, the most mo
mentous in the history of the world,
accentuated the conviction that the
unity of interests of the American re
publics and the future of the whole
western hemisphere rests on their
maintaining mutual good will and
■friendship. The opening of the Pan
ama canal is one and the other the
present Kuropean conflict.
From whatever point of view you
consider it, the building of the Pan
ama canal is bound to awaken ad
miration and wonder. By uniting the
two great oceans, the canal shortened
the distances between the remotest
lands, and broke the barrier that sep
arated the north and south of the Am
erican continent. Much has been
written and talked about increasing
exports and trade with South America,
but very little attention has been paid
to the most important elements of
union and friendship. It is the want
of this conception of cultivating trade
relations that has generally prevented •
American business men, too eager
looking after their own side of the
transaction, to remember that the first
law of good business is reciprocity.
There is another point of view that
we ought to consider very seriouslv
and earnestly, that is the great trans
cendent mission that the American
republics have before them in helping
the betterment of the ethical con
ditions in the world. The truly great
nations of history are not the nations
that have made trade their only aim;
they are forgotten.
HYDRAULIC EXCAVATION
UNCOVERS PAY DIRT
Discovery of light pay dirt in hy
draulic excavation is reported in the
; following item from the Petersburg
Weekly Report:
“The interest of local ‘mining men’
was considerably aroused yesterday
when W. H. Courtney, who is engaged
in hydraulic excavation work to the
rear of the building to be occupied by
the drug store, got gold to the value
of about four cents from a pan of dirt.
Authorities claim that colors are
found in numerous places hereabouts
and that energetic prospecting might
uncover placer ground yielding good
pay.”

How I Make My “Pay Outs” Pay In
By WILLIAM FLINTZER
I had my delicatessen store on upper Second Avenue,
New York* for two years before I fully realized that
there are two parties to profit—Pay Out and Pay In.
Profit isn’t merely a matter of cash received—it’s
even more a matter of cash paid out.
You can’t always control prices but you can control
expense.
That is, you can if you know what your expenses are.
I didn’t know—but I decided to find out.
So I bought a Burroughs Figuring Machine.
I
The Simplest Kind of Bookkeeping
I keep my own books.
On the back of each “pay out’’ ticket from the cash
register I make a note of what the amount is for. At
odd moments I classify these tickets: merchandise
bought for cash; merchandise charged; salary; heat and
light; rent; furniture and fixtures; and general expense
—all are grouped separately.
At the end of the day I list each item on the
Burroughs, and total each group.
Th is machine-printed, accurate list is pasted in a
yellow book as the day’s record.
These daily totals are added for the month to show
the monthly expenses under each division.
I don’t guess at anything—I get facts. Monthly
receipts are totaled and pasted in a cash book. Then
expenses and receipts are compared.
I know each month just what my percentage cost of doing busi
ness has been—and my profits are there in plain figures.
In more ways than one the Burroughs Machine has helped me.
It relieves me of figure worry. I use it in checking invoices. It pre
vents mistakes. Above all, it shows me the progress of my business
front day to day and year to year.
f igure knowledge has been a big factor in my success. Is it any
wonder I wouldn’t be without a Burroughs Machine?
