SELF- RESTRAINT IN BUSINESS
James C. Worthy, business executive, Chicago, Illinois: “The ideas of fair play and self-restraint are essentially religious. They help keep dog-eat-dog practices in check and enable the business system to operate without governmental control. Self-restraint rather than legal restraint is the rule. The typical emphasis on individual responsibility is another example of a basically religious idea which permeates American life, including business life.”
