People’s _DEP’T STORE An Open Letter To Newspaper Readers From Frederic J. Haskin For many years I have held that people generally do not know as much about theie government as they, should. I have believed that this was basically the cause of such weaknesses as we have had in our governmental steucture and personnel. There have been two big I's—Ignorance and Indifference. Ignorance of what a magnificent institution has been builded upon the foundation laid by the forefathers; ignorance of how it functions; ignorance of the fact that its innumerable activities affect every American for better or for worse. And the indifference! That which keeps so many million Americans from exercising their priceless heritage —the right to vote. That which takes no thought of who will admin- ister the affairs of the greatest business in the world. Indifference to any- thing in government—until chere is an economic breakdown and incomes and salaries and wages are reduced, or wiped out, and taxes are increased. In short, you do not sit up and take notice until the political-economic or- ganization under which you live steps on your toes or on your purse. I Have Tried to Help So I have tried, in my way, to do something about this. I have been answering the questions of myriad newspaper readers the country over, and almost always they pertain to government. I have written a daily newspaper article dealing. as a rule, with some phase of government. Twenty-five years ago I wrote a book called “The American Gov- ernment,” which, with its revisions, ran through 81 editions and sold over 800,000 copies. Some of you may recall that the late Heriry W. \' Savage made a motion picture of my book that was titled “Uncle Sam at Work.” Weite now for your copy of “THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT I have cited all this solely to show that my interest in government, and in informing people about their gov- ernment, is no new thing, but is real, and has dominated me over a long period of years. New Book Sells Uncle Sam Now I have brought out a new book. Ie is called “THE AMER- ICAN GOVERNMENT TODAY.” Of course, I am trying to sell my book to you, but far more than my, interest in its prospective sales is my pride that my book undertakes to sell the United States government to its people and to the world. And your newspaper is offering it to you for that very purpose. It’s a great gov- ernment, but it can’t be any greater, any more efficient, any more honest, or any more intelligent, than are you, the people who compose it. Indi- vidually, each of you may be hell on finance, tops in industry, or a bell- wether in agriculture, but how do you round up? How do you rate on government?. In fact, what do you actually know about it? There's more to government than an Army, a Navy, a Congress, a Su- preme Court, and a President—more than all the departmental establish- ments, the independent commissions, and the Alphabet Bureaus of the New Deal. Back of all these are the people who must have understanding and knowledge and faith. 1 am for our government, as it was created, as it has existed, and as it will endure. I hope you read my book, and that you like it. Ic will tell you almost anything you want to know about your government. Truly, : TODAY.” Enclose one doller and address The Bismarck Tribune Biemarck, N. D. % 4 4 "
