New York.--The first American millionaire was George Washington, according to Eugene E. Prtisslng, Los Angeles lnwyer, formerly of Chicago, .who has just completed thirteen years of research Into Washington's career as a business man. Summing up the results of his study In the American Mnsnzlne, Mr. Trussing says: "ft Is customary to think of Wash Inpton as soldier and statesman. He was also a man of business, successful fiirmer, builder of transportation engineer, pioneer and promoter. He was a man of brond commercial vision and n#e business ability. He spent one-fourth of his life In public service and yet leff behind him a record of business achievement and a for tune that entitles him to be called our first millionaire. He started life with bu# a few rents of his own. When he died the land and other Investments that he directed to be sold were worth, by his own conservative estimate In his will. j$i»30.OOO. and this did not Include tyfnie of the ihost valuable portiohs of Ills estate. 'To many of us Washington Is a mythical figure, hidden behind fables like Hint of the self-righteous little boy and the hypothetical cherry tree. As a matter of fact, he was a very different sort of person. He was a man who would have been perfectly at ease in a group of modern big business men around the directors' table. And he enjoyed fox hunting Wid dancing, as the modern man Joys golf. i "- - Was G<|d Business Man; - "In his ideals, his sense for giving value as well as getting It, his Insistence on exact statistics, his zeal for hig constructive tfnflertakings, for striking into virgin fields, seizing opportunities. opening avendes' to development, his instinctive slzlng-up of the possibilities of profit in a dealin nil these matters and others like them, his attitude was strikingly similar to that of the best of modern husiries*. He did not definitely formulate any rules for moneymaking. hut he followed certain basic /principles throughout his career." Washington's apprenticeship tn business started soon after his father's .death, which occurred when the boy was twelve. | "From that time.** Mr. Trussing says, "he was pretty much on his own. and was always faced with the problem of making a' living. Washington's first Job was as an apprentice surveyor with G. W. Fairfax. At seventeen he became official surveyor of Culpepper county, and began his life work as an engineer. He had the thrifty Iden of not taking all his pay In cash^ He knew where the best acres were located, and, believing that land prices would rise, he began pitting his extra pay into good land. Made $15,000 a Year. r His returns on farming later avar* aged as high as $15,000 a year. He tan a gristmfll at Mount Vernon. He conducted fisheries on ten miles of waterfront shipping his product to England and the West Indies. He maintained a ferry across the Potomac. which paid a handsome profit. He devoted six years as managing director of a company which was engaged in drainage and lumbering operations in Virginia, and he was president of the Potomac River company, a navigation and development enterprise which eventually evolved Into the Chesapeake & Ohio and the Baltimore & Ohio railroad systems. He purchased 53.000 .acres of land in Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia. "In business he was careful about exacting value and giving It. He performed his contracts and promises according to the spirit as well as the letter, even when doing so involved heavy losses. "Washington ran his business affairs by exact knowledge. He always knew where he stood. He kept complete records of receipts and expenditures and of all business transactions. iPHPPPPfP,. tebra gotta Mr.' and Mrs. Edward Sund and daughter, Darlene, of Carpentersville were recent guests at the home of Henry McMillan.
