Yet this is just what he does when he is not willing to join in with “the other side” in every matter that is patently for the advancement of the community interest. We have said that all towns have factions. Towns will always have them. This does not mean that the town’s prog- ress is.retarded by them. In many cases the factions serve but to stimulate rivalry in achievement. Where this is the case they are beneficial. A wholesome slogan for any town would be: “Go affer an opportunity and land it; then if we must scrap, let it be over a division of the spoils.” —0 MARGINS WIPED OUT The United States has always heretofore been a land of plenty—in fact a land of surpluses.
