GIBBONS' NEA Service Writer Chicago, Sept.. 28.—Stick to your brush If you contemplate changing that job of yours for a seemingly better one just around the corner, hearken first to the advice .proffered by two men here who has just risen from the ranks, to combined control of an es- timated billion dollars’ worth of sep- arate industries. | Both I | temporary, James life sharing menial duties, was a $5-a-week office boy. a handy lad with cattle around slaughter house. o Simpson, began Simpson White, the Today both - are independently wealthy, have thousands of people— including many of their former boss- es—working for them, and have de- cidedly reached that fairyland goal toward which all of us are striving— the land of the ‘go-getters"—easy street, _Simpson has just been elected | president of Marshall Field & com- pany, probably the largest wholesale and retail department store on earth. And climbing simultaneously with him, White, who chose the pacling | industry for his particular realm, on the same day, almost the very hour, | tha Simpson came into his own, was | named president of Armour & com- pany, largest of the world's "Big Five” meat distribution concerns, with ramifications extending to every cor- ner of the globe. Their rise, purely on merit, has furnished the biggest business ro- mance of the past decade, reading al- most like an Alger story titled “From Rags to Riches.” White's elevation to his high place means the triumph of a one- time c®ttle herder and meat inspec- tor, and likewise marks the first day, since Armour & company was founded in 1862, that the firm has been operated, without an Armout descendant in fhe president’s chair. . 5o While | proached Simpson, Marshall who onee ap- Field, Sr, for a STARTIN SUNDAY NIGHT For Seven Edson White and hi# con- | ¢ living, and a The Mammoth Photoplay Pro- tluction That Thrilled Broadway raise and ‘told the merchant prince that perhaps he wasn't worth any more, when Field countered that when he was a boy he worked for much less than what Simg@ison was then getting, represents a self-made product who got where he is simply because he “stuck.” | Both men are about the same age, | each bordering close to the half cen- tury mark, And each disclaims any | “chartered road' to success, though insistently giving the prevalent ru- mor popular with a great many young men the lie, that the age of | opportunity is passed and “that you have to have a relative in the firm to get anywhere.” “There is no panacea which anyone can recite progress,” says White. “I got where 1 am principally be- | cause ‘I dared refute the popular be- | lief, tha#it is far better to be a big | trog in a small puddle, than a small one in a large muddle.” oo In Simpson's case, achievement, so those who know him say, came not from any spectacular brilliancy, but from a combination of contributing circumstances which he brought about thrbugh his glue-like “sticktoitive- ness” and the never veering custom of | doing “‘everything well." Today this former office boy runs |a score of mills, has a large-sized | | city of workers under him in Chicago, and in addition is at the head of an | | army of salesmen, who require 55 salesmanagers to direct their canvass of every town and hamlet in the land. As in White's case, he too, denies any tabloid list of success command- | ments, and says that “achievement | cannot be gained merely through re- | peating by rote any number of “don'ts" d "do-its.” ST er s the first essential in any man's progress,” Simpson relat- | ed.” "“Those wha, get to the top in any line of endeavor are invariably the type of men who have calculated | their rise by sound principle, right combination of doing | things under correct and experienced | rules.” or ritual | to make | ' REVOLT COST “MILLIONS” National Claims Commission Enters | Claim,_of $250,000,000 Against tht‘} | Mexican Government For Damage. | Mexico City, Sept. 28.—Claims for | | damages to forelgn property result- | ing from the Mexican revolution, al- | ready filed with the National Claims | Commission total more than $250,- 000,000, accordingsto the commission’s [ last report. Should a revolutionary claims con- vention be adopted after resumption | of diplomatic relations between the | United States and Mexico, as proposed | in the understanding reached at the | pre-recognition conference, this | amount will be enormously increased | as numerous American and other for- | eign claims have not yet been filed | | with the national commission, but are held up for settlement through diplo- | matic channels. .
