* MICK PRAISES THE RURAL CREDITMOVEMER Former Ambassador to Fran Speaks on Subject at San Francisco. ON RURAL CREDITS DA Says Aim of Movement is Not Chea 'or Money, Bat to Enable Deserving Persons to Own Homes. San Francisco, Sept. 21.?This w Rural Credits day at the expositi with one of its features an addrc by Myron T. Herrick of Clevelar fnrmprl v n m hoauoflne /-? ? v J MMAWMoawuvi vu * 1 U M V V, which he discussed in detail ma phases of the rural credits mo\ Aient. The grand purpose of the rui credits movement, said Mr. Herrit had been overlooked by those w expected of it only lower inten rales. Cheaper money, he declare is not its only aim. It rises high than that and proposes to enal home sefekers to accomplish th< ^ wish, landowners to procure at! quate funds to develop their hoi Ing and credit is the mistaken noti resources so that American agrici ture may become modernized a properly financed and keep pace wi progress in every other industry. Reviewing the five years that t movement has been in course, ^ Herrick declared that legislation various states looking to the forn tlon of credit unions and land crei institutions had little merit. Stt aid, he believed, to be undersiral in the United States if private ent prise could bo efficiently regulat and rural co-operation intelligen practiced. Among other things said: "The cause of much of the mist: derstanding about co-operative bar ing and crdlt is the mistaken noti that co-operatoion is an altruis or benevolent means of helping t down-and-out class of persons w are individually weak and inconi] tent. This l-.alMriiih Is alive w dangers. Co-operation can ne\ help anybody except him who is al and willing to help himself?and 1 neighbor also. True, co-operation the quickest way to success for t humble as well as for tho high, I its literal interpretation is orgeula mutual self-help. It presumes tl men will work harder, longer, a better together than when standi alone, it requires a spirit and ability to both give and receive; a it can reach its fullest developnn only among persons who are capal and honest and known to be so among persons who ask no favc who spurn charity and state aid, a rely solely upon their own talen toil and resources. 'There Is more co-operation in 1 United States than in any other co\ try, and it is used here even for 1 largest undertakings. The gath ing and distribution of news by 1 Associated Press is the most striki example in the world of oo-operat: conducted on a grand scale witha lucrative object. The life insurai companies, with their millions policyholders and billions of doll of assets, and the mutual savii banks and building and loan assoc tions, with their stupendous totals deposits, savings and reserves, most of their funds of organi: thrift under co-operative mana fc ment, while trade unionism (the c est kind of co-operation) permea I */ the laboring classes. These are cl f J centered, but do not constitute all fT co-operative activities. Co-operat * appears in inconceivably varied a I I. Charle THE LANCASf innumerable enterprises.
