GRAY, Referee. WalterW.Hood By roazon of this mystery surrounding . it, it is toe frequently feared, and financiers assailed as enemies of the. public good, .using their power selfish*' IT to adranee their own purposes. '• No nation or -people ever achieved greatness without the assistance ¡of finance,—accumulated capital,' mah-' aged and directed by those skilled in. the handling of wealth and money. Ac cumulated resources are represented at times by hoards ef gold, but more frequently by ships, herds, and other productive agencies. America measures her resources in terms of billions of dollars. She has thousands of preepsrona homes, myri ads of well developed villages and' towns, thousands o f miles of railroads and paved roads. This has been pos sible through the Investment and use. of capital or wealth created and ac cumulated by the citizens. When the early pioneers first trav eled over the pralrlos, which are now rich and productive fields, their re sources consisted only of s productive soil, a healthful climate, and the sun shine and rein necessary to the growth of vegetation. As the early settlers vrro'ufrht and produced and prospered, they saved. These savings they invested in the tools of production — plows, narrows, binders, stores, railroads, banks and manufacturing enterprises.
